Observations detect the lowest mass ratio contact binary to date
Astronomers from China and South Korea report the detection of a contact binary system with an extremely low mass ratio of only 0.0356. The newfound system, which received the designation TYC 3801-1529-1, is therefore the lowest mass ratio contact bi.....»»
Reversing climate change may cost quadruple after tipping point, warn experts
Tip the first tile in a line of dominoes and you'll set off a chain reaction, one tile falling after another. Cross a tipping point in the climate system and, similarly, you might spark a cascading set of consequences like hastened warming, rising se.....»»
