Just because Pluto was ruled out as a planet in 2006 doesn’t mean our solar system only has eight planets. The search for Planet Nine is far from over as scientists continue to uncover clues ...
Combining a quantum-inspired algorithm and quantum information processing technologies could enable researchers to measure ...
Interstellar objects like 3I/ATLAS that have been captured in planet-forming disks around young stars could become the seeds of giant planets, bypassing a hurdle that theoretical models have ...
Venus is often called Earth's evil twin due to its size, mass, material composition, and density. It even feels like Venus should've become a second Earth. However, it ended up being one of the ...
A NASA-backed planetary defense group has reportedly begun efforts to pinpoint comet 3I/ATLAS after it was observed emitting ...
When 'Oumuamua traversed our solar system in 2017 it was the first confirmed Interstellar Object (ISO) to do so. Then in 2019, Comet 2l/Borisov did the same thing. These are the only two confirmed ...
More than a year after NASA's New Horizons mission closely flew by a small, distant Kuiper Belt Object, researchers have been able to sift through the data and learn intriguing new details about this ...
Though NASA confirms that 3I/ATLAS poses no immediate threat to Earth, its unusual trajectory and behaviour have stirred ...

The James Webb Space Telescope captured this long-wavelength color composite image of the Orion Nebula using its Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) instrument. NASA, ESA, CSA / Science leads and image ...
It's extremely difficult to think about something so large that it's impossible to properly estimate anything about it. Yet so is the Universe that holds us, a place so big an eternity would probably ...
