Even very slight environmental noise, such as microscopic vibrations or magnetic field fluctuations a hundred times smaller ...

In a new study, University of California, Berkeley, researchers show that heat energy can travel through a complete vacuum thanks to invisible quantum fluctuations. To conduct the challenging ...

The line about how in space, no one can hear you scream. Is it actually true? There aren't traditional sound waves—vibrations in a medium like air—in a vacuum, so screaming is probably a waste of ...

What happens when you put snow in a vacuum chamber? In this video from Cody's Lab, we find out. At first, the results don't seem very exciting. But if you know what to look for, there's a fascinating ...
