On May 6, 2025, an international team of astronomers using the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii said it has listened to the “music” of a nearby star.
Now, the unique capabilities of the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope are providing new insights into the Jovian aurorae.
Evidence is mounting that a secret lies beneath the dusty red plains of Mars, one that could redefine our view of the Red Planet: a vast reservoir of liquid water, locked deep in the crust.
The half-tonne Soviet vehicle malfunctioned after its launch in 1972 and never made it out of Earth's orbit for the next 53 years.
NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory helped diagnose the cause behind a large kink in a huge filament near the center of the Milky Way.
The early Solar System was like a debris field where objects smashed into each other in cascades of collisions.
New views of TOI-421 b by JWST gives insight into how the most common type of planet in the galaxy might form.
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have directly detected the faint glow of a planet that’s colder than any world whose light has been directly observed.
Most of the lights in the new JWST-Hubble composite image are not bright stars, but galaxies, stretching back almost as far across space-time as the beginning of the Universe.
Earth-like exoplanets might be more common throughout the Milky Way than previously believed, astronomers report in a new study.
A celestial shadow known as the Circinus West molecular cloud creeps across this image captured with fabricated Dark Energy Camera - one of the most powerful digital cameras in the world.
Whatever caused the blackout in Spain and Portugal, it highlights the vulnerabilities in some electricity grids.
Eos is a crescent-shaped molecular cloud about 300 light-years from our solar system. It resides on the edge of the Local Bubble, a huge “cavity” in space filled with gas, which is about 1,000 light-years across.
Planetary scientists research the complex asteroid Vesta which may possess the same fundamental architecture as Earth such as the crust.
Scientists have long been trying to determine how elements heavier than iron, including gold and platinum, were first created and scattered through the Universe, and new research may give us another part of the answer: magnetars.
