Humans have long imagined life on Mars, but what if the red planet actually delivered life to Earth in the first place?

Ohio State started off the game hot, scoring on its first possession of the night on a 9-yard run by Bo Jackson. Indiana answered on its opening possession, with Roman Humby punching it into the end ...

Fix up an old house, make the yard nice, grow your own crops, and become self-sufficient. View the cherry blossoms in the spring; Attend the festival in the summer; Eat roasted sweet potatoes in the ...

One of the most influential science studies of all time started with a modest minicomputer, some simulated boxes of water molecules, and a grand vision for computer-aided chemistry. The year was 1982.

I swear I did not play any part of this game and I let the computer run its course as I’ve done every week this season, but somehow virtual Ryan Day must have known this was Max Klare’s return to ...

For decades, philosophers, technologists, and even billionaires like Elon Musk have toyed with the idea that our universe might be a highly sophisticated computer simulation. The idea represents one ...

Researchers at the quantum computing firm Quantinuum used a new Helios-1 quantum computer to simulate a mathematical model that has long been used to study superconductivity. These simulations are not ...

Researchers have mathematically proven that the universe cannot be a computer simulation. Reality, they argue, is rooted in a “non-algorithmic understanding” that no algorithm could ever replicate.

A team of physicists from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Italy has mathematically shown that our Universe is built on a type of understanding that exists beyond the reach of any ...

In 1994, a strange, pixelated machine came to life on a computer screen. It read a string of instructions, copied them, and built a clone of itself — just as the Hungarian-American Polymath John von ...
