Astronomers have revealed new research showing that millions of new solar system objects are likely to be detected by a brand-new facility, which is expected to come online later this year.

In late 2017, a mysterious object tore through our solar system at breakneck speed. Astronomers scrambled to observe the fast-moving body using the world's most powerful telescopes. It was found ...

NASA intends to take an unprecedented 3D observation of the sun this month. In doing so, the agency hopes to understand why its outer atmosphere — the corona — is hotter than its surface, how does the ...

Using numerical simulations, the researchers figured out that a flyby like this would have about a 1 in 100 chance at reshaping our Solar System into what it is today, and that the interloping ...

However, on the much smaller scales of our solar system, it’s hard to measure the miniscule changes affected by dark matter, even at the distances of the outer planets. Credit: Astronomy: Roen ...

Understanding the solar system's local bubble. The eROSITA telescope, the primary instrument of the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) mission launched in 2019, is the ideal instrument to tackle this ...

Using data from the eROSITA All-Sky Survey, astronomers have created a 3D map of the low-density bubble of X-ray-emitting, million-degree hot gas that surrounds the solar system. The investigation ...

Google Maps in Space lets you "walk" the surface of the Moon, Mars, Venus, and other entities in the Solar System, as well as the International Space Station. Here's how to use it.

The James Webb Space Telescope achieved a rarity — snapping an image of a planet beyond our solar system.. The exoplanet, Epsilon Indi Ab, is located 12 light-years away.That's trillions of ...

Airborne single-photon lidar system achieves high-resolution 3D imaging. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2024 / 04 / 240425131611.htm ...

The findings, appearing in The Astrophysical Journal, suggest magnetic fields strongly impact star-forming regions which means they played a part in the creation of our own solar system.. It might ...
