A new study dives into the explosive physics of what happens when two supermassive black holes collide.

Recent scientific flights above the Front Range will help scientists and policymakers cut unnecessary emissions, reduce greenhouse gases and help local residents breathe better.

As women gain more power in national legislatures around the world, they may drive major changes in how their countries spend money. But the relationship is complicated, researchers say.

CU Boulder researchers attracted a record $634.4 million in fiscal year 2021 for studies involving everything from artificial intelligence to the Hope Mars mission and climate change in the Arctic.
