The northern lights could put on a show tonight (Nov. 10) as incoming coronal mass ejections (CMEs) may spark geomagnetic storm conditions, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Left, the free fluids phase and Fe-enriched blebs are entrained in the magma ocean. Center: water is outgassed to create a steam atmosphere while the Fe-enriched blebs sink toward the
WASP-39b 3D model cross sections. Shown are the local gas temperature, Tgas (left) and cloud dust-to-gas mass ratio, ρdust/ρgas (right). The values are derived from the 3D GCM results
Water isn’t just delivered to planets by comets and asteroids — it can also be forged as worlds form, a new study finds. For decades, scientists have debated the origin
Astrophotography has exploded in popularity, thanks to incredible advancements in the best camera technology, such as improved sensor ability and astro-specific autofocus. Some of the best cameras for astrophotography from
