The next full Moon will occur on Thursday, October 17, 2024, at 7:26 a.m. EDT and is filled with celestial and cultural significance, NASA has reported.
Using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have uncovered details about the processes shaping protoplanetary disks, the cosmic nurseries where planets are born.
Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have uncovered a connection between the powerful jet emitted from a supermassive black hole and the eruption of stars, known as novae, in a massive galaxy .
A research team led by Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR), in collaboration with the European XFEL, has successfully simulated extreme conditions similar to the ones found inside stars and planets using a smaller, more accessible laser technology.
Astronomers using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope have uncovered a cosmic spectacle similar to a question mark in the vast reaches of space, offering a glimpse into the early days of our universe's evolution.
Researchers from Loughborough and Cambridge Universities have joined forces under the auspices of the UK Space Agency to pioneer ultra-lightweight solar cells tailored for space missions.
In a groundbreaking discovery, the James Webb Space Telescope has identified six intriguing celestial objects known as rogue worlds, each possessing masses similar to planets but untethered to any star's gravitational pull.
In a study published in the Astrophysical Journal, researchers from the University of Washington, Yale University, and international partners have uncovered a surprising correlation between a galaxy's size and its cosmic surroundings.
In a groundbreaking study, researchers from Ludwig Maximilian University (LMU) have revealed a new model that challenges current theories on the formation of giant planets like Jupiter, offering deeper insights into the mysteries of our solar system and beyond.

The first two lines are real astronomical images, which go from the galactic disk itself and down to the planet-forming disks. The last two lines are generated from numerical simulations and aim to understand and interpret the observations.
