Detected in 2021, the Amaterasu particle ranks among the most energetic cosmic rays ever observed, carrying an estimated 244 exa-electronvolts. Its apparent arrival from a nearly empty region of space ...

A space and radiation expert is disagreeing with Airbus’ recent explanation of a flight incident that left at least 15 people injured back in October. On Oct. 30, a JetBlue Airbus A320 aircraft ...

From 19 to 22 January, 80 particle physicists, astronomers and cosmologists gathered at CERN for the first “All that ...

High above the Atlantic, a routine flight turned into a physics experiment with 150 lives strapped in. A passenger jet suddenly lost its digital bearings, forcing pilots to fight for control and ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Cosmic rays are now blamed for a scary experience midair during a JetBlue flight. The plane suddenly lost altitude while traveling ...

LHAASO has uncovered that micro-quasars, black holes feeding on companion stars, are powerful PeV particle accelerators. Their jets produce ultra-high-energy gamma rays and protons that exceed ...

A jetliner was nearly knocked out of the sky and sent plummeting to a deadly crash that would have killed all onboard by a bizarre attack from outer space – an explosive burst of cosmic rays sent ...

Some of the universe's most extreme explosions leave behind almost no trace. The original explosion is unseen, but our observations can capture the long-lived echo it leaves behind as the shock front ...

Scientists are exploring the origins of the Amaterasu particle, an extremely energetic cosmic ray first detected in 2021, which carries unprecedented energy levels.
