ESA’s Proba-3 mission enables long-duration artificial solar eclipses in space, allowing continuous observation of the Sun’s ...
New data from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope shows where crystalline silicates form around young stars and how disk outflows transport them to colder, outer regions.
Jupiter boasts the shortest day in our solar system, completing a rotation in just under 10 hours. This rapid spin, a result of its immense size, gaseous composition, and retained angular momentum ...
F or all of its life-sustaining energy, the sun is pretty chaotic. Roiling plasma covers its surface along with fluidic snarls of magnetic fields that birth solar flares. These fiery outbursts occur ...
Astronomers have long sought evidence to explain why comets at the outskirts of our own solar system contain crystalline ...
But only in the last 70 years have we known for certain they were there. In 1956, physicists Clyde Cowan and Frederick Reines ...
Astronomers have identified a rare sednoid called Ammonite, an icy object beyond Neptune that offers new insight into the ...
How to make a super-Earth: The universe's most common planets are whittled down by stellar radiation
Some 350 light-years away, the V1298 Tau system features an infant sun-like star, just 23 million years old, orbited by four ...
While Io, the most volcanically active moon in the solar system, appears completely dry and devoid of water ice, its neighbor ...
The survey, known as ALMA to Resolve exoKuiper belt Substructures (ARKS), focused on debris disks. Debris disks are vast belts of dust and ice left behind after planets finish forming. These ...
Scientists developed a single molecule combining p-type and n-type semiconductor components that self-assembles into two ...
A decade of observations of four planets around the young planetary system V1298 Tau revealed a rare, long-sought missing link in planet formation.
