Radio waves from about 17,000 galaxies show that the peak of star formation, about 10 billion years ago, might have been more productive than predicted.

The radio waves sent out by the 78 transmitters in the network are reflected back by the ocean's waves, giving scientists a 24-hour-a-day map of coastal currents.

So just how does the modulating of radio waves enable data transmission? The answer is found in the concept of coding. Coding refers to a modulation pattern that is understood and shared by both a ...

NASA's CubeSat Radio Interferometry Experiment, or CURIE, is scheduled to launch July 9, 2024, to investigate the unresolved origins of radio waves coming from the sun.

NPR's Mary Louise Kelly speaks with Regina Barber and Geoff Brumfiel of Short Wave about a new moon mission, a global map of fishing ships, and mysterious rings of radio waves.

This forthcoming mission, employing six CubeSats, aims to map the solar radio wave origins in two dimensions, building upon CURIE's proof-of-concept.

Mystery of strange radio bursts from space Mysterious radio wave flashes from far outside the galaxy are proving tough for astronomers to explain. Is it pulsars? A spy satellite? Or an alien message?

A periodic flurry of radio waves from some unknown object in deep space could help astronomers figure out what’s triggering similar radio bursts in other galaxies. One of the known repeaters has ...

Researcher Fabrizio Tamburini and his team believe that by spinning radio waves we’ll be able to send discrete signals over the same frequency, giving us, in theory, “an infinite number of ...
