Jupiter’s icy moons may have been seeded with the chemical ingredients for life from the very beginning. An international ...

Using the Webb telescope, scientists discovered an unexpectedly cold, dense region within Io’s auroral footprint in Jupiter’s northern lights.

The findings suggest that the gas giant's atmosphere reacts instantly to activity involving its orbiting moons.

Observations from the James Webb Space Telescope show how Jupiter reacts to its moons through auroral footprints, plasma interactions, and rapid electron flows detected in infrared measurements.

Never-before-seen temperature and ion density measurements reveal that the effect of Jupiter's moons on its aurora are more complicated than scientists thought.

Astronomers have discovered 12 new moons around Jupiter, putting the total count at a record-breaking 92. That's more than any other planet in our solar system. Saturn, the one-time leader, comes in a ...

This first-ever complete map of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io released on March 19, 2012, was created using data and images from NASA's Galileo spacecraft, (which studied Jupiter and its moons between ...

New research suggests that Jupiter’s icy moons may have formed with complex organic molecules already embedded in their building blocks.

There’s no mistaking Jupiter in the sky these Pottsville winter evenings, rising in the southeast as evening twilight ends. In fact you should be able to easily see it long before twilight fades.

A comet from another star system will swing by Mars on Friday as a fleet of spacecraft trains its sights on the interstellar visitor. We already know a decent amount about how planets form, but moon ...
