Recently acquired data from late September 1 from NASA’s Perseverance rover is proof that the team reached its goal of obtaining a Mars rock. The initial images received after the amazing event depict a well-captured sample within the tube after ...

There are a lot of stars in this Universe. And we mean…A LOT. And scientists have categorized them according to size, temperature, and brightness. Scientists have also discovered a mysterious object that has changed our perspective on things. They have ...

Mars, the fourth planet from the sun and Earth’s closest planetary neighbor, has a relatively thin atmosphere and no magnetic field to protect it from radiation. That makes Martian weather much more extreme than that of Earth. Mars is bombarded ...

The SpaceX cargo was finally launched today at at 3:14 a.m. EDT (0714 GMT) and it is on its way to the International Space Station. The launch was successful, despite the fact that it had to be postponed for a ...

SpaceX was scheduled to launch a cargo spacecraft to the International Space Station on August 28, with 4,800 pounds of supplies for the Expedition 65 crew. However, transferring cargo to the International Space Station will have to be completed tomorrow. ...

Titan stands out as the largest moon of Saturn and the second-largest natural satellite from our Solar System after Ganymede. But that’s not all when it comes to Titan. Saturn’s moon is the only known space object except for Earth ...

Fast Radio Bursts had always been a source of curiosity for astronomers. Some have speculated that these phenomenons are proof that advanced civilizations from other planets are trying to contact Earthlings. The theory is still plausible, however. According to ScienceAlert.com, ...

Whether we like it or not, our Solar System is a pretty active place. The eight planets and the dwarf planet Pluto are far from representing the only space objects that are present. Asteroid 2021 PH27 is one of those ...

Have you ever wondered about the most amazing wonders that are present in our solar system? If so, then this article will be of great interest to you as it lists some amazing structures that have been discovered by astronomers ...

Not all black holes remain in their usual position in the center of galaxies. Some supermassive black holes do wander around the Universe, and now researchers have a chance to locate them more effortlessly than before. “Unlike most other currently ...

Mars is not what you would expect an alien planet to be like. It has a thick atmosphere with much carbon dioxide, but it also has water ice at its poles and an unexplored interior with pockets of very intense ...

Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are usually found at the center of galaxies, playing a huge role in the existence of those stellar conglomerates. It’s also the case of our Milky Way galaxy, which has a supermassive black hole located in ...

The near-Earth asteroid 3200 Phaethon is very special for many reasons. One of its highlights is the fact that it gets brighter as it gets near to the Sun, though it doesn’t have any ice reserves that normally produce that ...

Mars has become the dream destination for many astronomers in recent years. Although humans probably won’t get the chance to move there, at least in the next decades or centuries, sending spacecraft on the Red Planet to gather as much ...

Do you know how essential gravity is in the Universe? It acts as a peculiar ‘glue,’ that ties everything together strangely yet fascinating. We can also use gravity to spot distant cosmic features, an effect dubbed gravitational lensing predicted by ...

Black holes are sometimes called “the ultimate monster of the cosmos”—an In. They formed when the density of matter in the Universe was at its highest—and thus, they become very dangerous for any object in their vicinity. Black holes are ...

Our galaxy is quite ravishing as it unfolds right before our eyes. Astronomers are thrilled anytime they find something peculiar about it because they’re closer to solve some long-standing mysteries. A recent discovery unveils that Milky Way has an odd ...

There had always been interesting mysteries revolving around planet Saturn. Why is the space object made almost entirely of gases? Why does it have those iconic and beautiful rings? Why is it so huge in the first place? Why does ...

Ever wondered how sunlight is on other planets? Well, you may never know when you could actually come across some proof! Venus is well-known for its inhospitality. It’s a nightmarish planet, rough at edges, and apparently, the most reflective planet ...

Our Sun is estimated to be about 4.6 billion years old. That estimate was formed via models of Sun-like stars, plus observations of comparable stars. However, scientists also know that the Sun became hotter as time passed, and estimates suggest ...

Asteroid Bennu had stirred quite the controversy recently when a team of scientists reexamined the asteroid’s trajectory to figure out when it’ll collide with Earth. For now, we are safe, but we’re not sure how it’ll be in the year ...

New data offered by NASA’s Juno probe unveil Jupiter’s moon, like never before! Ganymede stuns in an infrared picture, leaving astronomers in awe. Juno’s observations help scientists understand Jupiter and its moon better, unraveling mysteries about the intriguing Jovian system. ...

The Universe has a long history, the longest of all. It started roughly 13.7 billion years ago along with the Big Bang, a phenomenon that appeared with no apparent cause, had energy from apparently nowhere and started to expand without ...

Our dusty planetary neighbor, Mars, has a bare and stark landscape. You may think that there’s nothing there to see, but recent data unveil something odd yet stunning. Seeing a volcanic plain pierced with impact craters is genuinely intriguing and ...

NASA has just announced the great news of rover Perseverance and its first drill hole on our planetary neighbor. Even if the rover’s first attempt to collect rock samples was a failure, in the end, it proved that it has ...
