The launch of NASA's Artemis I is a huge step toward sending humans back to the moon and beyond.
The spacecraft’s intentional crash into an asteroid changed the space rock’s orbit by more than 30 minutes — far more than expected.
The hypothetical moon is being called Chrysalis. It could have helped tip the planet over before getting shredded to form Saturn’s rings.
This mission could provide a blueprint for how to deflect a killer asteroid, if one is ever found headed for Earth.
Gravitational waves offer scientists a new way to view extreme objects such as black holes and neutron stars.
Stunning images from citizen scientists show an unusual pattern in ‘Northern Lights.’ They offer clues that may help astronomers better understand a curious red glow.
The habitable zone is the region around a star where temperatures could be right for worlds to host liquid water.
Alternatively, this unseen wanderer might be a hefty neutron star. Whatever it is, its gravity caused starlight to be warped — and that gave it away.
New observations from the Event Horizon Telescope reveal the chaotic region around the Milky Way’s central black hole, Sagittarius A*, in extreme detail.
A new cache of confirmed exoplanet discoveries marks a milestone in planets found beyond our solar system.
