Space is home to a great many oddities, and even chemistry gets strange out there. In fact, there are even some molecules ...

Unlike the brain and spinal cord, peripheral nerve cells, whose long extensions reach the skin and internal organs, are capable of regenerating after injury. This is why injuries to the central ...

It's difficult to overstate just how surprisingly early to the party this water may have been. “This suggests that water, the ...

The sequel to Theodore Gray's acclaimed chemistry iPad app The Elements leads you into the wonderful world of molecules.

Build simple atoms and molecule models using plastic construction bricks—like LEGO—as you explore the elements that shaped all life on Earth.

If the ingredients are everywhere, perhaps life is thriving in places we can only imagine.

In his highly anticipated sequel to The Elements, Theodore Gray demonstrates how the elements of the periodic table combine to form the molecules that make up our world.

The atoms of other elements, however, like hydrogen, join with another hydrogen atom as a pair, making a molecule. So, all compounds are molecules, and some elements are too.

Scientists have developed tables similar to the periodic table of elements but for molecules. Their approach could be used for predicting novel stable substances and creating useful materials.

The creation of a new magnetic molecule could pave the way to build new, stamp-sized hard drives capable of holding the ...

Complex organic molecules have been detected in a galaxy located more than 12 billion light-years away using the James Webb Space Telescope.
