August 1, 2019 Strange star found zooming out of our galaxy is fastest of its kind ever seen Atronomers have discovered a new star that's the fastest of its kind in our Milky Way galaxy.
August 1, 2019 Sun's scorching hot, spiraling wind re-created in a lab Scientists have replicated mini gusts of solar wind in the lab as a way to potentially unravel some of the Sun's mysteries.
August 1, 2019 Nearby 'Super-Earth' may be habitable, NASA suggests NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite has made several discoveries in recent days, including a planet with three suns and a sun with three planets. But the latest discovery may be the most surprising of all — an alien planet that is potentially capable of supporting life.
August 1, 2019 Shocking Moon discovery: Earth's satellite 100M years older than previously thought, study says The Apollo missions have had a lasting legacy on space exploration, most notably the Apollo 11 mission, which saw humanity walk on the Moon for the first time. But a new study extends the legacy of the Apollo missions into something much greater than walking on another celestial body — it suggests the Moon is far older than anyone thought.
July 31, 2019 Black Moon is coming tonight: What that means July 31 will mark a rare occurrence for Earth's natural satellite — a phenomenon known as a Black Moon.
July 31, 2019 Millions of black holes are hiding in our galaxy. Here's how astronomers plan to find them. It's time to find all the missing black holes.
July 31, 2019 NASA is joining forces with Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos to help space exploration NASA may have ambitions of returning to the Moon on its own, but it's asking for help from Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk to make breakthroughs for future space missions, including going to Mars.
July 30, 2019 Watch NASA's 7-foot Mars 2020 robotic arm perform 'bicep curl' Talk about robot power. A time-lapse video shows NASA’s 2020 Mars Rover performing a very impressive ‘bicep curl.’
July 30, 2019 NASA finds three alien planets, including the 'missing link' NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has found a star, known as "TESS Object of Interest 270," or TOI 270, 73 light-years away from Earth that has three exoplanets orbiting it, including a so-called "super-Earth" and two others that are described as Neptune-like.
July 30, 2019 Einstein was right (again!) as general relativity passes another test By analyzing the extraordinarily strong gravitational pull of the giant black hole at the center of the Milky Way on a star near it, astronomers have shown that Einstein's ideas about space and time still hold true as the best description yet of how gravity works.
