The CosmicWatch device costs only $100 to make, making it accessible for both high school students and spacecraft operators.

Physicists have discovered an exotic new state of matter that takes the form of a highly ordered crystal of subatomic particles. The new state of matter, called a "bosonic correlated insulator," could ...

They're called ghost particles for a reason. They're everywhere—trillions of them constantly stream through everything: our ...
