Gravitational Waves Detected, Confirming Einstein's Theory: A team of scientists announced on Thursday, February 11, 2015 that they had heard and recorded the sound of two black holes colliding a billion light-years away, a fleeting chirp that fulfilled the last prediction of Einstein's general theo...

In this video we go to South America! In the Atacama Desert, Chile, we find the most advanced technology for space observation. Here, the Royal Astronomical Community members watched for six months as a black hole simply absorbed a massive star. By the way, these are the same scientists who proved t...

From land to sea to space, the world’s scientists are using incredible tools to uncover our planet’s history and tell us where we are headed. These are the top 10 largest mega-tools of science.

Test firing of the first stage of F9-R--advanced prototype for the world's first reusable rocket. The test took place at SpaceX's rocket development facility in McGregor, TX, lasting 112 seconds. Unlike airplanes, a rocket's thrust increases with altitude; F9-R generates just over a million pounds o...
