A new study presents the first physical evidence that the Venus’ and Jupiter’s gravity can cause shifts in Earth’s orbit—and swings in its climate—every 405,000 years.
NASA’s robotic lander InSight officially started its journey to Mars following a successful predawn launch aboard an Atlas V rocket Saturday morning. The launch took place at 4:05am local time from California.
The ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter has released the first images from its new orbit, taken on April 15 from 400 kilometers above the Martian surface.
A planetary scientist has used careful mathematical calculations to determine the density of Mercury's crust, which is thinner than anyone thought.
In this animation the viewer is taken low over Jupiter’s north pole to illustrate the 3-D aspects of the region’s central cyclone and the eight cyclones that encircle it.
At the north pole of Jupiter eight storms are arranged around a single polar cyclone. In the south, one storm is encircled by five others.
Researchers have identified eight, massive sheets of ice just below the Martian surface, and they appear to be relatively young deposits.
MIT team designed an environmentally friendly city for the red planet that mimics a forest, with solar-powered dome tree habitats connected with roots, or tunnels.
NASA has launched a fleet of missions to study the planets in our solar system -- many of which have sent back crucial information about magnetospheres.
Scientists have detected a powerful X-ray aurora hotspot near Jupiter's south pole and it does not behave how they expected.
A mysterious signature in a region of the Red Planet where planetary scientists figure ice shouldn't exist.
An attempt to highlight irresponsible decisions of world leaders, corporates and mindless 'consumers'. The video is dedicated to all who died fighting for Earth and those whose lives are on the line today.
Japanese researchers recently conducted a study of the night side of Venus. In addition to being the first of its kind, this study also revealed that the atmosphere behaves differently on the night side, which was unexpected.
The spacecraft deserves a fond farewell and a round of applause.
The discovery of boron on Mars gives scientists more clues about whether life could have ever existed on the planet, according to a new paper.
