Planck

A potentially habitable planet with a mass similar to Earth's has been found by scientists outside of our solar system.

The members of the Max Planck Institute completed an old-age tradition of tossing a colleague into the pond in order to celebrate their scientific success.

"It was the worst pain that I have experienced in my life," says 26-year-old New Yorker Kyle Planck, recalling his recent monkeypox infection.

In a bid to study how humans learn to walk from stumbling, researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems (MPI-IS) in Germany built a four-legged robot dog. They equipped the robot dog with an artificial spinal cord and observed that it learned to walk in just an hour.

Scientists have captured intricate details of cosmic dust and clouds in space, including the Andromeda galaxy (M31), Triangulum galaxy (M33), and the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. In order to create images of the cosmic dust and clouds, researchers have relied on data from various retired missions such as the using the European Space Agency (E...

Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to Germany's Benjamin List and David MacMillan of the US won the for their development of a precise new tool for molecular construction.

How we measure the world underwent a quantum leap on Monday as scientists adopted new hyper-accurate definitions for units of weight, electricity and temperature derived from the universal laws of Nature.

It is arguably the most significant redefinition of an SI unit since the second was recalculated in 1967.

A study conducted by the Max Planck Institute for Human Development has found a direct relationship between family meal frequency and the nutritional health of the kids in the family.

Astronomers claim to have discovered the roundest natural object in space ever measured - a slowly rotating star 5,000 light years away from the Earth.

The Greifswald device should be able to keep plasma in place for much longer than a tokamak, said Thomas Klinger, who heads the project.

Researchers have created the first-ever 'growth chart' for Milky Way, which shows how our galaxy grew from its infancy to the bright spiral galaxy we see today.

An international team of scientists has identified potential 'tipping points' where abrupt regional climate shifts due to global warming could result in natural disasters.

First classified a planet, then an asteroid and then a "dwarf planet" with some traits of a moon - the more scientists learn about Ceres, the weirder it becomes.

A pair of bright spots that glimmer inside an impact crater on the asteroid Ceres could be some kind of icy plume, new images from NASA's Dawn spacecraft have revealed.
