Oxygen ‘Survives’ for Billions of Years on Comet Churyumov-Gerasimenko

The biggest surprise so far in the chemical analysis of Comet Churyumov-Gerasimenko's atmosphere is the high proportion of oxygen molecules. While such molecules are common in the earth’s atmosphere, their presence on comets had originally been ruled out.

Quest for the Fifth Force Stimulates Unprecedented Amount of Research in Gravitational Physics

Discovering possible new forces in nature is no mean task. The discovery of gravity linked to Newton’s arguably apocryphal apple experiment has remained anchored in popular culture. In January 1986, Ephraim Fischbach, Physics Professor from Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, had his own chance to leave his mark on collective memory.
