Australian scientists have invented a next-generation solar panel capable of healing itself when damaged in space.
Exoplanet WASP-193b, is nearly 50 % bigger than Jupiter but it's so light and fluffy that its overall density is comparable to that of cotton candy. It's just a hair over 1% of the density of Earth.
NASA's Juno spacecraft orbiting Jupiter frequently encounters giant swirling waves at the boundary between the solar wind and Jupiter's magnetosphere.
An unidentified source has been beaming out a pulse of radio waves every 22 minutes since 1988, astronomers say.
Scientists are seeking to confirm that a black rock discovered in Morocco in 2018 departed Earth's pull for outer space, only to return to it like a prodigal child.
In a first, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) may have glimpsed a rare type of star that astronomers aren’t even sure exists. These “dark stars” might not have been fueled not by nuclear fusion but by the self-annihilation of dark matter.
A retired cosmological theory should be given a second chance at explaining anomalies in our Universe, according to theoretical physicist Rajendra Gupta from the University of Ottawa in Canada.
A scorching hot world where metal clouds rain drops of titanium is the most reflective planet ever observed outside of our Solar System.
Researchers poring over imagery and data from the Perseverance rover on Mars have found evidence of organic molecules in the planet’s Jezero Crater, potentially providing evidence of the planet’s carbon cycles and its ability to host life.
An orbiting satellite discovers a mysterious, heat-emitting mass of granite buried under the surface of the far side of the Moon.
Scientists have detected an active supermassive black estimated to have been created 570 million years after the Big Bang.
From the far reaches of the observable Universe, astronomers have just seen a supermassive black hole suddenly flare to life.
Meteor-like fireballs in the atmosphere of the Sun rain down like showers of shooting stars during the phenomenon of coronal rain, scientists have found.
Scientists have for the first time observed the early universe running in extreme slow motion, unlocking one of the mysteries of Einstein's expanding universe.
Four small rooms, a gym and a lot of red sand - NASA unveiled its new Mars-simulation habitat, in which volunteers will live for a year at a time to test what life will be like on future missions to Earth.
