The Fermi bubbles were discovered in 2010 by NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The two orbs form an hourglass structure ...

Twin orbs of superhot plasma at the Milky Way's center known as the "Fermi bubbles" contain inexplicable clouds of cold ...

Astronomers have found 11 unexpectedly cold hydrogen clouds hiding in the superheated turbulence of the Fermi Bubbles, in a ...

Learn about cryovolcanism, which shapes the surface of icy moons in the outer Solar System by releasing water that ...

Scientists have been able to recreate the extreme conditions found on icy moons in deep space—and revealed the unstable ...

"The Fermi bubbles are enormous structures of hot gas that extend above and below the disk of the Milky Way, reaching about 25,000 light years in each direction from the galaxy's center ...

The idea of bubble messages drew inspiration from naturally occurring air bubbles in glaciers, which preserve pockets of air from early in Earth’s history. The researchers involved with the new study ...

Look closely at an ice cube, and you might spot minuscule bubbles shaped like teardrops, flattened eggs or even winding worms. Bubble patterns in Russia’s Lake Baikal (shown here) are even more ...

Bubbles in ice can also change shape over time as temperature or pressure changes. If you don’t have a nearby pond, you can check out this phenomenon in your freezer.

Assigning certain sizes, shapes and positions of bubbles to characters within Morse and binary codes means messages could be stored in ice ...

Look closely at an ice cube, the outer edges are often clear, and the inside cloudy or opaque. If you look closely, you can sometimes see tiny bubbles in there.
