A team of international researchers led by Tomas Stolker in the Netherlands has imaged a young gas giant exoplanet near a 12-million-year-old star. The planet is orbiting a star whose
If you asked someone what they expected to see during a visit to NASA’s Johnson Space Center, they would probably list things like astronauts, engineers, and maybe a spacecraft or
Astronomers have discovered a batch of nine new brown dwarfs, also known as “failed stars,” including the two smallest examples of these curious celestial objects ever seen. The new find
The Expedition 73 crew unpacked a newly arrived cargo craft, wrapped up a second week of science with an visiting crew of international astronauts and continued to conduct science and
ESA’s Living Planet Symposium, one of the world’s leading Earth observation conferences, opened today in Vienna. The plenary session began at 10:30 CEST and included addresses from ESA Director General
While NASA’s Mars Sample Return initiative is in political hot water, China is moving ahead on plotting out its rendezvous with the Red Planet. New details of China’s aims are
If you could see the Universe through a radio-wave “eye”, you’d detect mini-halos of relativistic particles creating radio emissions around some galaxy clusters. Astronomers long figured those halos are relative
Physicists at CERN — home of the Large Hadron Collider — have for the first time made a qubit from antimatter, holding an antiproton in a state of quantum superposition
We’ve scoured the internet for July 4 camera deals ahead of the Amazon Prime Day sales, taking place July 8-11 this year. There are some great offers to be had
