NASA wants more than just a lunar golf cart.

Cocoons of debris around dying stars could shake ripples in spacetime unlike any astronomers have ever seen. “This is a potential source of gravitational waves that has never been investigated before,” astrophysicist Ore Gottlieb of Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill., said June 5 in a news conference at the American Astronomical Society meeting in Albuquerque.

At 6,000 miles high, the plume is 20 times as wide as the tiny ice-covered moon.

The announcement formalized a timeline that Chinese scientists have set out before, as the United States and China ramp up competition in space.

Tunnels deep underground in North Yorkshire are providing a unique opportunity to study how humans might be able to live and operate on the

Solitude is not a curse—it urges us to explore the mysteries of our galaxy and beyond.

"I think it would be pretty ambitious... but really great if we could pull it off."

A new study led by physicist Sascha Kempf at the University of Colorado Boulder has delivered the strongest evidence yet that Saturn's rings are remarkably young—potentially answering a question that has boggled scientists for well over a century.

NASA's TESS spacecraft found the two planets, which are slightly larger than Earth.

Researchers have mapped more than 85,000 volcanoes on the surface of Venus — but suspect there may even be more.

The action 12,000 light-years away may presage what happens to Earth about 5 billion years from now.

Astronomers spotted a dying star swallowing a large planet, a discovery that fills in a “missing link” in understanding the fates of Earth and many other planets.

When it comes to supernovae, what is the minimum safe distance for habitable planets? Larger than we thought.

The observations reveal how the interior of the Red Planet works

SpaceX’s Starship launch vehicle, the world’s heaviest rocket, could be a game changer for the Space Force, even after its first attempt at a suborbital flight on April 20 ended in an explosion. Despite the failure, service officials told C4ISRNET they’re hopeful about the rocket’s future and what the test flight means for the launch industry more broadly.

'We learned something new about our own planet by looking at a large dataset of exoplanets.'

According to new study, an object that was once believed to be a radio galaxy is actually an active black hole that changed angles to aim straight at Earth. Scientists are baffled by a supermassive black hole in a far-off galaxy that has suddenly turned sharply 90 degrees to face straight toward Earth while spewing radiation at close to light speed.

One astronomer dubbed the high-intensity beam of radiation the BOAT: the Brightest of All Time.

The winds, which may trigger auroras, will likely reach our planet on Friday or Saturday, Daniel Verscharen from University College London said.

This is a galactic-sized problem. Scientists revealed Tuesday that galaxy PBC J2333.9-2343 has been reclassified after discovering a supermassive black hole that is currently facing our solar system, reports Royal Astronomical Society. “We started to study this galaxy as it showed peculiar properties.
