Then, a frame is constructed around it and threads are built from the frame to the Y – these are called radii or spokes. Then, the spider builds a spiral (called an auxiliary spiral) working from the ...

We have a rough idea of the size and shape of this field, but the fine particulars elude our understanding. Now, a new computational study has revealed a surprising structure – a spiral generated by ...

Now, a new model suggests that the inner part of the Oort Cloud may have an unexpected structure resembling a spiral, much like a miniature galaxy. The Oort Cloud begins roughly 2,000 – 5,000 ...

The mysterious Oort cloud is the source of many of our solar system's comets, but astronomers still have no idea what it looks like. Now, new simulations may have given them a first glimpse.

rodents and habitat loss threatened the snails on Deserta Grande Island, so the mollusks were reintroduced on a neighboring island that’s free of invasive species ...
