After discussing the quirks in 3D modeling software, where a laser beam is treated as a solid object that can cast a shadow, scientists decided to experiment in real life — and found that laser ...

Earth successfully received a message beamed from NASA's Psyche spacecraft, located some 10 million miles away.

A team led by scientists at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have generated a highly exotic ...

Creating such a powerful laser has taken time, though, and several experiments since the 1990s have failed to control the lightning as scientists hoped.

Scientists agree that laser beam tests in uncontrolled conditions, especially over water, are not a reliable means to prove the Earth's shape due to atmospheric refraction.

Physicists have built a tractor beam out of lasers that can both repel and attract objects across distances 100 times farther than previously possible.
