Scientists conducted a study on the unusual brightness of exoplanets filled with lava oceans and volcanic material. The researchers determined that lava and volcanic glass are not reflective enough to boost a planet’s albedo.
NASA created a map showing the areas most affected by the effects of the Beirut explosion in Lebanon.
A team of researchers discovered a missing neutron star hiding within a supernova. At only 33 years old, the neutron star might be the youngest of its kind.
An image captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope shows the strange shape created by the nebula of a dying star.
After detecting the wobbly movements of a distant star using radio waves, astronomers were able to discover a new exoplanet.
A couple of space technology companies released images taken by satellites showing the devastation caused by the explosion in Beirut.
Studies based on NASA's Juno discovery revealed how Jupiter's thunderstorms produce ammonia-filled hailstones known as mushballs.
NASA is monitoring a massive asteroid that's expected to intersect Earth's orbit on Saturday.
NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley will host a live news conference to discuss their experiences during SpaceX's Crew Dragon mission. They returned to Earth on Sunday after spending over two months aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
A new study revealed that the meteorites scattered across Earth came from an early version of a planet. Researchers said the objects most likely came from a rare planetesimal that went through an unusual structural change.
A group of researchers revealed in a new study that ice sheets, not rivers, were responsible for the formation of valleys on Mars' surface.
