The Tibetan Plateau is a region of stunning beauty, and as this true-color Terra MODIS image from December 14, 2002, shows, is graced with hundreds of lakes that sparkle like

Number of planets observed in a notional 3 year Ariel transit survey. The white star highlights the best overall leverage. The one-room schoolhouse yields the most targets, with other scenarios

Temporal evolution of atmospheric mass loss in response to stellar flares of different energies. The ratio of the instantaneous mass loss rate to the quiescent mass loss rate is shown

Surface of Ryugu, taken at night by Hyabusa-2’s Mobile Asteroid Surface Scout (MASCOT) camera MASCOT/DLR/JAXA Carbonaceous chondrite (CC) meteorites are fragments of planetesimals that hold clues about the early solar

This image shows a wide-field view of part of the Taurus Molecular Cloud, about 450 light-years from Earth. Its relative closeness makes it an ideal place to study the formation
