This ESA/Webb Picture of the Month shows eight stunning examples of gravitational lensing. Gravitational lensing, which was first predicted by Einstein, occurs because massive objects like galaxies and clusters of
The light curves from the NIRSpec G395H observations of TOI-1685, with the five visits shown chronologically from left to right. Top panel: raw, undetrended light curves at wavelength resolution
This article was originally published at Eos. The publication contributed the article to Space.com’s Expert Voices: Op-Ed & Insights. A sizable asteroid impact generally obliterates anything alive nearby. But the
When we gaze up at the night sky, we assume that what we’re seeing is a representative population of similar stars at similar distances. But it’s not. The stars we
JWST NIRSpec PRISM transmission spectra compared with modeled atmospheric scenarios. The x-axis shows wavelengths in microns, while the y-axis shows the transit depth in parts per million. Each of the
Astronomers discovered the 1st planet orbiting a sunlike star in 1995. Here is a comparison showing an artists’ concept of 51 Pegasi b to Jupiter and 51 Pegasi to the
A swarm of spherical rovers, blown by the wind like tumbleweeds, could enable large-scale and low-cost exploration of the Martian surface, according to results presented at the Joint Meeting of
Looking to get into skywatching, but aren’t sure which telescope to buy? Celestron’s Astromaster 130EQ Newtonian reflector telescope is a solid foothold for would-be astronomers. Ideal for surveying the solar
The crescent moon shines close to Mars above the western horizon at sunset on Sept. 24, but you’ll need to be quick to spot the red planet before it slips
