The quantum world is weird. Today we're looking at a strange particle called a glueball that contains no matter...they're made of pure force!

Are millennials addicted to their phones? Is that even a thing that can happen?!

Why are we talking about dark energy again? Because another team has just announced a new analysis of updated supernova data. They claim that the data are consistent with there being NO dark energy - no accelerating expansion. They...

Physicists are interested in the big questions like "Where did we come from?" and "What is all this stuff?". But the answers to some of these questions, just lead to more questions.

New evidence suggests some fossils as the oldest known sign of life on Earth, and scientists may have a way to speed up the process of carbon neutralization in the ocean!

When you think of a frozen object in space, you might think of Pluto, but stars themselves actually freeze.

A lot of what we know about ancient human civilizations comes from the things they leave behind. But sometimes, humans don’t live in places long enough to leave these clues. So, some researchers have turned to techniques outside...

This week on SciShow Space News we're talking about gravity waves (not gravitational waves) on Pluto, and radioactive interstellar rain on Earth!

The universe is a pretty grand place to live, but scientists have one issue with it, it's an anomaly that should be scientifically impossible.

Human cannibalism is a lot more common than you might think. Dive into its complex history and see its uses in medicine, cultural rituals and in times of survival. -- 15th century Europeans believed they had hit upon a miracle cure: a...

From calories to sleep, there always seems to be something we're not doing right. Luckily scientists have looked into this and come up with some helpful advice to keep us happy and healthy.

Journalist Andrew Marantz spent three years embedded in the world of internet trolls and social media propagandists, seeking out the people who are propelling fringe talking points into the heart of conversation online and trying to...

Hank lays out three of the most awesome discoveries in science in 2013, from the fields of physics, space science and anthropology.

Plants! We absolutely depend on them. Oxygen, food, and looking super nice to boot! But, plants have a lot more going on than meets the eye. How do we know that? Investigations and Experimentations!

Fossils found around the world suggest that multi-cellular life was not only present before the Cambrian Explosion, it was much more elaborate and diverse than anyone thought. This is the story of the sudden burst of diversity that...

We've all heard, “breast is best," but is it true? What's the real science behind breast milk and baby formula?

Bees aren’t the only pollinators out there. Some of the other, more surprising pollinators aren't just unconventional, they give us unique examples of how the relationship between pollinators and plants evolved in the first place.

You might not know this: Many of the medicines we take -- common drugs like Ambien and everyday aspirin -- were only ever tested on men. And the unknown side effects for women can be dangerous, even deadly. Alyson McGregor studies the...

How do you turn a memory, especially one of a traumatic event, into hard evidence of a crime? Julia Shaw is working on this challenge, combining tools from memory science and artificial intelligence to change how we report workplace...

According to the cosmological principle, the universe is more or less the same in all directions. But what happens when we put this to the test?

SciShow heads to Washington D.C. to join the March for Science and interview people about why they feel science is important to them.

Dark Energy is what we call the mysterious force that seems to be pushing the universe apart. By some calculations, it makes up 70% of everything in nature. Or...maybe it doesn’t exist at all! Plus, Juno’s observations give us new...

Extreme environments full of life on Earth have led researchers to expand the definition of habitability to something that includes many more planets, potentially leading us to evidence of living things in a dramatically shorter time!...

The ancestors of modern, squishy cephalopods like the octopus and the squid all had shells. In ancient times, their shell was their greatest asset but it eventually proved to be their biggest weakness.
