Rarest Moons in the Solar System: Did you know? NASA, the ISS, and the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are constantly observing the rarest moons in the solar system? The purpose behind this research ...

The gas giant WASP-18b belongs to a class known as ultra-hot Jupiters — giant, searing, gaseous planets that orbit perilously close to their stars. Researchers used a new technique called ...

Voyager 1, launched in 1977, has traveled farther than any spacecraft in human history. After more than four decades of silent endurance through space, it now sails beyond the orbit of the outer ...

The search for an unknown planet in our solar system has inspired astronomers for more than a century. Now, a recent study suggests a potential new candidate, which the paper’s authors have dubbed ...

Last month, Google quietly killed off Google Sky Maps. But there’s still another way to virtually explore most of the solar system a la Google Maps: it’s called Google Maps in Space. Google Maps in ...

Humanity has achieved incredible milestones in space exploration, from landing on the Moon to sending probes beyond our solar system—but true interstellar travel remains far beyond our reach. This ...

An interstellar comet, 3I/ATLAS, is speeding through our solar system in 2025, marking only the third such visitor. Traveling at 130,000 mph, it will make close approaches to Mars and Jupiter, ...

It's probably a comet, but it might be some sort of ancient alien spacecraft or probe. What's for sure is that the mystery surrounding an object known as 3I/ATLAS is becoming both more and ...
