Galaxies, planets, black holes: to most people, everything about our Universe sounds and feels enormous. But while it’s true that much of what happens millions of light years away is large, there are ...

Hummingbirds have a unique collision avoidance system built into their brains that allows them to perform high-speed aerobatics in safety, research has shown. The super-agile birds, whose wings beat ...

Activity 1 – Order the surfaces – How much friction do they produce? Activity 2 – Moving things quiz Activity 3 – Solve this problem Activity 4 – Conduct an investigation We need forces to make things ...

New simulations reveal interstellar objects don't arrive uniformly, with concentrations from the solar apex and galactic plane. Earth's orbital motion creates seasonal impact patterns, peaking in ...

In the first in a new series about schemas, Nicole Weinstein looks at the key resources for supporting children with the trajectory scheme The trajectory scheme relates to how objects move through the ...

It might sound like science fiction, but it’s pure physics. A new experiment has shown what Albert Einstein predicted over 60 years ago — objects moving near light speed appear oddly twisted or ...

What do puzzles, gymnastics, writing and using maps all have in common? They all rely on people’s ability to visualize objects as they spin, flip or turn in space, without physically moving them. This ...
