The ancient products of star explosions have been found in deep sea sediments on Earth.
We might have to revise the commonly accepted image of planets orbiting a parent star.
Weather-related phenomenons are taking a toll on the telescope
The discovery of a calm galaxy so early in the Universe’s history calls into question our theories of how galaxies form.
Our solar system is getting more interesting with each passing year
Seismic activity on Mars shows that there are three boundary layers between the planet's surface and iron-rich core.
The effects of the explosion have now been mapped from space.
Science -- because you can't prove there's magnetic pastry in space any other way.
Most of the calcium in the universe may have been generated by massive exploding stars.
A new study casts doubt over the conventional view of what early Mars looked like.
Better get your cold weather gear if you are planning to go there
It can covert radioactive energy into chemical energy
Supermassive black holes sat at the centre of active galaxies could have company. Binary pairs of these titanic cosmic objects could merge to form a more monstrous black hole. Observational methods are finally becoming sensitive enough to spot such an event.
This will help to understand the formation of Jupiter's moons.
In case you were woried, that gap around 11 billion years ago was just filled.
The mission will do a global survey of the planet
Any sign of this ancient onslaught has been erased from the surface of Earth, but the moon still has the scars to prove it was real.
This suggests that the planet's interior is still churning away.
The oil-rich country is officially a space power.
They're big
These one-of-a-kind images of the sun are the closest ever acquired by cameras.
It could be a momentous breakthrough for a country without space exploration history.
It's going to be a good month for stargazers.
Fluffy galaxies are more common than you thought.
Everyone can help explore space!
It should reach its goal by fall.
The improvements won't happen overnight. Ten more such satellites are under manufacturing.
The distant planetary body could offer clues about what lies beneath Jupiter's thick atmosphere.
A Sun a day keeps dark matter away?
The star may have directly collapsed as a black hole, without going supernova -- which is almost unprecedented.
The flare was equivalent to the light from a trillion suns.
They took this step due to "a contamination concern",
Although Pluto orbits the sun at an average distance of 3.7 billion miles (5.9 billion kilometers), some studies claim that the icy dwarf planet may have a liquid ocean under its surface. According to a new study, the accretion of new material during Pluto’s early geological history may have generated enough heat to sustain the […]
The glow comes from oxygen atoms and it was long predicted, but never observed before
A trifecta of recent discoveries has challenged models of galactic evolution, suggesting that galaxies could have formed much sooner in the Universe’s 13.7 billion year history than previously believed.
New findings from NASA’s Cassini space probe challenge our understanding of tidal forces.
The submarine expedition took over five hours. She took photos and then spoke to the astronauts on the ISS.
A novel simulation mimicked the conditions of early Earth, finding that meteorites could have seeded the essential building blocks for life.
A tiny Martian moon suggests Mars may have had planetary rings.
The halo surrounding the Milky Way may be much hotter than originally thought.
It's the first maned launched from US soil since the space shuttle was retired nine years ago.
Astronomers have used mysterious Fast Radio Bursts from distant galaxies to solve a lingering cosmological problem-- locating the Universe’s missing baryonic matter , long predicted to exist, but never before detected.
Space junk is a classic example of the Tragedy of the Commons -- now it's time to take responsability and pay up.
The observations further our understanding of how extrasolar planets come into existence.
Frozen Martian mud has been mistaken for lava flows.
Pockets of salty water can appear on the surface of Mars more often and across more of the planet than previously expected.
No real stars were hurt...
A cliff face on mars is telling us of its watery past.
The stars in the same triple system as the black hole are so close they can be seen with the naked eye.
The extraordinary findings have important implications for alien life.
