Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE), in collaboration with astrophysicists from the Centro de Astrobiología (CAB), CSIC-INTA, have identified the largest sulfur-bearing molecule ever found in
As they roll across shadowed regions of the moon’s surface, future lunar rovers could develop hazardous buildups of electric charge on their wheels. Through new analysis published in Advances in
Even as NASA celebrated the rollout of the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft for Artemis II over the weekend, NASA’s new administrator, Jared Isaacman, made sure to put
How do blue stragglers defy the aging that turns their mates red? Blue stragglers are found in ancient star clusters, where they outshine stars the same age, looking far bluer
Some stars appear to defy time itself. Nestled within ancient star clusters, they shine bluer and brighter than their neighbors, looking far younger than their true age. Known as blue
Families of the astronauts lost in the space shuttle Challenger accident gathered back at the launch site Thursday to mark that tragic day 40 years ago.
A new study has examined how future human missions to Mars could access one of the planet’s most vital resources—water. The “Martian aqua: occurrence of water and appraisal of acquisition
The Helix Nebula is one of the closest and brightest planetary nebula. It’s what’s left of a dying star and has nothing to do with planets. Our Sun will end
Some really unique science can be done during a total solar eclipse. Totality is the one time we can see the elusive corona of the Sun, the pearly white segment
