Astronomers anticipate an unprecedented view of the solar system as the Rubin Observatory begins to scan millions of hidden celestial objects.

The orange dwarf Gliese 710 is expected to come within 0.1663 light-years or 10,520 astronomical units in about 1.29 million ...

A new type of computer simulation predicts that the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile will discover millions of previously undetected objects in the solar system over the course of the coming ...

Washington DC [US], June 6 (ANI): A group of astronomers from across the globe, including a team from the University of Washington and led by Queen's University Belfast, have revealed new research ...

It applies assumptions on how Rubin Observatory sees and detects astronomical sources in its images with the best model of what the solar system and its small body reservoirs look like today.

If our solar system seems stable, it's because our short lifespans make it seem that way. Earth revolves, night follows day, the moon moves through light and shadow, and the sun hangs in the sky. But ...

A new observatory is set to detect millions of never-before-seen solar system objects, a global group of astronomers led by Queen’s University Belfast (QUB) has said.

OF201, the object belongs to the same all-star family as Pluto: dwarf planets. Its diameter, roughly 435 miles (700 km), is ...
