Our solar system is hurtling through space at 828,000 km/h, inside a vast structure called the Local Bubble. This video maps our cosmic voyage through interstellar clouds, warped discs of the Milky ...

Scientists have uncovered evidence that our Sun may have traveled across the Milky Way as part of a massive migration of Sun-like stars billions of years ago. The journey may have carried the solar ...

New research suggests our Sun was part of a huge migration of Sun-like stars that moved away from the Milky Way’s center billions of years ago.

Astronomers have caught what may be a rare cosmic catastrophe unfolding 11,000 light-years away. A seemingly ordinary ...

A huge solar storm struck Mars in 2024, supercharging its upper atmosphere and briefly disrupting spacecraft orbiting the Red Planet.

An exoplanetary system about 116 light-years from Earth could flip the script on how planets form, according to researchers who discovered it using telescopes from NASA and the European Space Agency, ...

NASA shared some new infrared images of the 3I/ATLAS interstellar comet this week, showing the visitor brightening up in a dramatic outburst while exiting a solar system. The images were taken by the ...

The first few exoplanets were discovered in the early 1990s. But it wasn’t until the early 2000s, when astronomers began carrying out large-scale, long-term surveys of other stars, that we started to ...

The Kuiper belt, a disc of icy rocks on the outermost edges of the solar system, seems to have more structure than we thought. In 2011, researchers found a cluster of objects there on similar orbits ...

How fast and in which direction is our solar system moving through the universe? This seemingly simple question is one of the key tests of our cosmological understanding. A research team led by ...

A recent report details a waterless solar cleaning system design developed to address the challenge of dust accumulation on solar panels in arid regions; it is one of multiple waterless cleaning ...
