A new image from NOAA’s GOES-19 satellite has captured a rate celestial cameo: Earth itself appearing in the view of the spacecraft’s solar coronagraph.

Australia’s engineering skills gap and labor shortage is the highest it’s been for more than a decade. New Swinburne research could explain why.

Archaeologists in Croatia have discovered a rare mass grave inside ancient water wells at Mursa (modern-day Osijek), revealing the bodies to be soldiers of diverse backgrounds who may have fought in the Battle of Mursa around 260 CE. The multidisciplinary…

The new technique could one day be used to create less expensive astronomical sensors.

Chalmers researchers have developed a simple, light-based platform to study the mysterious “invisible glue” that binds materials at the nanoscale. Gold flakes floating in salt water reveal how quantum and electrostatic forces interact through vivid color changes. The technique could…

Researchers suggest that dark matter might subtly color light red or blue as it passes through, revealing traces of its existence. Using a network-like model of particle connections, they argue that light could be influenced indirectly by Dark Matter through…

Heavy teaching loads, shrinking university budgets and expanding workload expectations have fueled stress and burnout among professors and other university employees in recent years.

Educators’ concerns are running high when it comes to AI and how it may undermine teaching and learning. But what if teachers could find ways to use AI to measurably help students learn, rather than simply do their work for…

The burying ground looks like an abandoned lot.

Imagine a student using a writing assistant powered by a generative AI chatbot. As the bot serves up practical suggestions and encouragement, insights come more easily, drafts polish up quickly and feedback loops feel immediate. It can be energizing. But…
