The first interstellar mission to a black hole could be launched within 30 years - by a spacecraft no heavier than a paperclip, say scientists. The ultra-lightweight craft would be propelled by a ...
Future spaceships could use black holes as powerful launch pads to explore the stars. A new study envisions firing laser beams that would curve around a black hole and come back with added energy to ...
An astronomer at Columbia University has a new guess about how hypothetical alien civilizations might be invisibly navigating our galaxy: Firing lasers at binary black holes (twin black holes that ...
Black holes can’t be formed from pure light. Quantum physics would curb their creation under any foreseeable conditions, a new study suggests. Typically, matter is responsible for black holes. They’re ...
Welcome to This Week in Outer Space, where you’ll find a roundup of the best space coverage from Yahoo News and our partners from the past week or so. Last week, we found out about some shady behavior ...
When it comes to solar power, solar cells and panels tend to get all the attention. But there's a different kind of solar power generator known as a STEG, and researchers have just figured out a way ...
