NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: Public safety institutions have arrived at a breaking point. Hiring more officers and fielding quicker versions of legacy equipment are no longer sufficient answers ...

Physics is still full of big questions that scientists have not completely answered. From the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy to the challenge of unifying relativity with quantum mechanics, ...

For years, physicists were stuck in trying to explain an important mathematical problem in physics. The right approach ended up being too simple.

In 1945, as the first atomic bomb exploded in the New Mexico desert, Enrico Fermi stood miles away, holding a few scraps of paper. As the shockwave rolled toward him, he dropped the papers and watched ...

The manifesto leaned heavily on Isaac Newton’s theories in making a case for independence, and fellow founders drew on the notion to build a new system of government By Jo Marchant Illustration by ...

This article is part of a package on the future of quantum computing. Read about the quest to develop these machines here and see an illustrated field guide to qubits here. The 21st-century fervor ...
