If climate volatility really is the new normal, I told myself, I need more than bank balances and air-conditioned comfort—I ...

The bigger question—one Tasmania must answer soon—is how much of its food-bowl can be outsourced to balance sheets before ...

When you measure the mass of an object that is more than 1,000 grams, you should describe it in kilograms. Kilograms can be shortened to 'kg'. Here is a paper clip. It has a mass of 1 gram ...

A gram is a standard unit of measurement. It is a word used to describe the mass of an object. You record the mass of light objects in grams. One way to measure the mass of objects is to use ...

In just the first 259 days of data collection, KATRIN, a beta-decay-based detector in Germany, has set the smallest upper ...

Global demand for wood as a building material is expected to quadruple by 2050. Demand is being driven in part by the rising popularity of mass timber for its aesthetics and eco friendliness. One of ...

Learn how Hubble is measuring the expansion rate of the Universe in this new explainer from NASA's Goddard Space Flight ...

The KATRIN experiment in Germany nearly halved the maximum possible mass for neutrinos, setting it at 0.45 electron volts.

A radical initiative for its time, the Metre Convention ultimately birthed a system of measurement that would transcend ...

No matter what you do, matter can neither be created nor destroyed. This property of the universe is called the law of ...

The results were described on 10 April in Science 1. To this day, neutrinos are the only elementary particles whose mass is unknown. Measuring it could provide a crucial clue to how the particle ...

In cosmology, they influence the formation of large-scale galaxy structures, while in particle physics, their minuscule yet nonzero mass serves as an indicator of previously unknown physical processes ...
