Wanderers CU is a responsive sound experience delivered via a mobile app that responds to the visitor’s movement as sensed by GPS. A complement to the Colorado Scale Model Solar System represented by ...

Wylie Overstreet and Alex Gorosh decided to drive out to the Nevada desert and create a to-scale model of the solar system, showing the true relative distance of each planet from one another and ...

The result is a 7-minute-long time-lapse video, "To Scale: The Solar System," that is beautiful to watch and gives a great sense of just how huge our solar system really is.

Get your scrolling hand ready. An interactive web page has created a scale model of the solar system, where the moon is the size of just one pixel.

A groundbreaking study published in Communications Earth & Environment has called into question the long-standing assumptions ...

Astronomers have long tried to define the shape of our solar system.; Researchers used readings from various NASA missions to plot the contents of the solar system and, subsequently, its shape.

We are now able, within a single model, to set the time zero of the solar system, close to when the interstellar cloud of dust and gas began its collapse and started to form our protosun and disk ...

This is how NASA’s Interstellar Boundary Explorer, or IBEX, mission studies the heliosphere, making use of these particles as a kind of radar, tracing out our solar system’s boundary to ...

“At the scale of the new model, to get to Proxima Centauri, the star nearest to our solar system, you’d have to travel from Boulder to the Panama Canal.” Chancellor Philip DiStefano and other campus ...

Our solar system is just a small slice of the universe. From the depth that James Webb’s first images have provided, to the journeys that Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 have taken into interstellar ...

“An Earth-like planet far beyond Neptune could redefine our understanding of the solar system,” says Lykawka. He adds, “It would not only restore the count of nine planets but also challenge ...
