Gamma rays create Red Hulk in Captain America: Brave New World, but how do they work in the real world? | Space

Captain America: Brave New World is about to hit cinemas, bringing with it the gamma-ray-powered Red Hulk. Here's what you need to know about that high-energy radiation.

Huge solar storm in May 2024 spawned 2 new radiation belts around Earth | Space

The creation of the belts, and others like it in the future, are a potential new danger to astronauts and satellites headed to geostationary orbit and beyond.

3D-printed 'hydrogels' could be future space radiation shields for astronaut trips to Mars | Space

Those tiny colorful dinosaur toys that grow bigger underwater might hold the key to protecting astronauts as they journey through space.

DNA-busting radiation from star-killing supernova could have influenced evolution on Earth | Space

A distant star-killing supernova could have bombarded Earth with radiation strong enough to shift the course of evolution.

Creating steady Floquet states in graphene via mid-infrared irradiation | Research Communities by Springer Nature

We describe the achievement of a long-lived Floquet phase in graphene, where a non-equilibrium electronic population is stabilized by the interplay between coherent mid-infrared photoexcitation and incoherent phonon cooling.

Changing seasons on Uranus tracked across 20 years by Hubble Space Telescope | Space

An analysis of two decades of data from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has provided fresh insights into the complex atmospheric changes on Uranus, including the effects of the sun's radiation on its seasonal shifts.

Lichens can survive almost anything, and some might survive Mars - Ars Technica

The symbiotic organisms appear to be able to avoid some radiation damage.

Colorful Eagle Nebula glows in stunning new image from Hubble Telescope | Space

A breathtaking new image of the famous Eagle Nebula captures a towering pillar of gas and dust sculpted by intense stellar radiation.

Pushing the Limits: Igniting a Spark with Few Photons in Optical Nanoprinting | Research Communities by Springer Nature

A novel approach based on few-photon irradiation to achieve two-photon absorption (fpTPA) is proposed. For the first time, this enables the simultaneous realization of both high resolution and high efficiency in optical nanoprinting.
