Scientists observe bumblebees rolling a ball underneath a flower to get sugar, showing complex problem-solving abilities.

These 25 science experiments that defied the laws of physics don’t actually break any fundamental principles. Instead, they reveal the counter-intuitive, mind-bending nature of our universe, ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: In 1927, Albert Einstein and Neils Bohr debated the nature of what’s known as complementarity—the idea that a photon’s dual wave-like and particle ...

In the era of precision cosmology, research often means big science: large observatories, highly complex instruments, international collaborations and substantial funding. Yet even in such an advanced ...

Quantum physics once shocked scientists by revealing that particles can behave like waves—and now, that strange behavior has been pushed even further. For the first time, researchers have observed ...

In early phases of drug development, new active substances are tested in animals—alongside numerous other experimental methods. Researchers face a dilemma: on the one hand, for ethical reasons, they ...

Artificial intelligence is rapidly learning to autonomously design and run biological experiments, but the systems intended to govern those capabilities are struggling to keep pace. AI company OpenAI ...

Movie S4. Task solution in Experiment 3. This movie shows a bee solving the task in Experiment 3. The beginning of the video (habituation phase, without the ball present) is shown at accelerated speed ...
