The rings of Saturn are some of the most famous and spectacular objects in the Solar System. Earth may once have had something similar.
The hidden Mars structures are mysterious because they appear to be significantly denser than their surroundings.
Recent images reveal a newly formed volcano. It is complete with multiple expansive lava flows and surrounding volcanic deposits, spanning an area of approximately 180 by 180 km — an impressive addition to Io’s volatile surface.
New data about the Martian crust gathered by NASA's InSight lander allowed geophysicists to estimate that the amount of groundwater could cover the entire planet to a depth of between 1 and 2 km.
Venus and Earth seem like twins who, through dramatically different circumstances and choices, ended up leading dramatically different lives.
Researchers has recently found that nearby storms would strengthen the Great Red Spot, increasing its size. The current shrinking spot may be due to a lack of smaller storms in its diet.
Nasa has announced the first detection of possible biosignatures in a rock on the surface of Mars.
A new research suggests that underneath, the tiny world harbors a glittering interior fit to be the jewel in the crown of our Solar System.
Among several recent findings, the rover has found rocks made of pure sulfur — a first on the Red Planet.
Mosses are among Earth's great terraformers, turning barren rock into fertile soils, and now a team of scientists is proposing these non-vascular plants could do the same on Mars.
A team of researchers has uncovered evidence of its origins in the atmosphere, where carbon dioxide bathed in ultraviolet sunlight reacted to form a mist of carbon molecules that rained onto the planet's surface.
From around 2,400 miles away, the probe’s Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM) instrument “revealed that the whole surface of Io is covered by lava lakes contained in caldera-like features.
The glow above the Great Red Spot on Jupiter has recently been discovered and the researchers suspect that something else altogether is causing it - powerful gravitational interactions rarely seen on Earth.
An international team of researchers combine orbital imagery with seismological data from NASA’s Mars InSight lander to derive a new impact rate for meteorite strikes on Mars.
An infrared glow high up in the atmosphere of Jupiter could be produced by an interaction with dark matter.
