Scientists have long believed that foam behaves like glass, with bubbles locked into place. New simulations reveal that bubbles never truly settle and instead keep moving through many possible ...

Foams are everywhere: soap suds, shaving cream, whipped toppings and food emulsions like mayonnaise. For decades, scientists ...

Researchers led by Rice University’s Guido Pagano used a specialized quantum device to simulate a vibrating molecule and ...

The idea that reality might be a kind of cosmic software has moved from late night dorm debates into serious physics journals ...

Not so long ago, supply chain disruptions were limited to a dockyard strike or a storm off the Atlantic Coast. Now vulnerabilities are everywhere: A pandemic shuts down entire factories, tariffs shift ...

On September 19, 1982, Carnegie Mellon University computer science research assistant professor Scott Fahlman posted a message to the university’s bulletin board software that would later come to ...

The United Arab Emirates is quietly positioning itself as a global leader in urban air mobility, turning futuristic concepts of autonomous flying taxis and delivery drones into a regulated, testable ...

The idea that we’re living inside a simulation, as popularized by “The Matrix” franchise, has piqued the interest of scientists for decades. In 2003, philosopher Nick Bostrom proposed in a highly ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Despite how it may feel some days, we probably aren’t stuck in a ...

Researchers have mathematically proven that the universe cannot be a computer simulation. Reality, they argue, is rooted in a “non-algorithmic understanding” that no algorithm could ever replicate.
