Astronomers studying a faint red dwarf star called LHS 1903 have found a four-planet system arranged in a sequence that no standard model of planet formation predicted. The system follows a ...

Astronomers have spotted something unusual in a comet passing through our Solar System. 3I/ATLAS, only the third confirmed interstellar visitor ever s.

When worlds collide…suns act squirrely. Astronomers have witnessed a rare and violent cosmic crash between two planets, and ...

New ALMA and JWST observations reveal why Wolf–Rayet star WR 112 produces tiny dust grains, showing a bimodal grain ...

Astronomers using ALMA have found large quantities of methanol in comet 3I/ATLAS, making it one of the most alcohol-rich ...

Astronomers have caught what may be a rare cosmic catastrophe unfolding 11,000 light-years away. A seemingly ordinary sun-like star suddenly began flickering wildly, puzzling scientists until they ...

One way gas giants form is through core accretion, where solid cores gradually grow in a disk by pulling in rocky and icy pebbles until they become massive enough to attract the gas that surrounds ...

Astronomers detect high levels of methanol in interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, providing insights into planet formation outside our solar system. Discover findings from ALMA and implications for ...

Earth influences all life on our planet. The same is true in reverse: Animals, plants, and inanimate matter also shape habitats. But humans are currently changing this dynamic cycle.

An international team of astronomers has discovered a distant planetary system that challenges long-standing theories of how planets form. Across our galaxy, astronomers routinely observe a ...

Some stars don’t just shine; they also manufacture the raw ingredients of future worlds.
