Mulugeta Bekele is almost single-handedly responsible for having kept Ethiopian physics going in the 1970s and 1980s despite being imprisoned and tortured by the Ethiopian military. Robert P Crease ...

Images from NASA’s DART mission revealed the first direct evidence that asteroids in a binary system can exchange rocks and dust. Slow moving debris from the asteroid Didymos appears to have struck ...

A meteorite that fell in Germany in 1724 contains a form of silica that conducts heat in a stable manner and baffles physicists.

Asteroid 2024 YR4 will not impact the Moon in 2032! New observations from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have confirmed that the object will pass safely at a distance of more than 20 000 ...

More than 1,000 high school students and teachers from across B.C. will participate in the 48th annual UBC Physics Olympics this weekend.

Welcome to Python Physics Lesson 5, where we explore projectile motion with drag forces. In this lesson, we go beyond idealized motion to show how air resistance affects trajectories, velocity, and ...
