Cosmic forensic experts are reconstructing the magnetic field around an infant star from the planet-forming disk of gas and dust around it.

"Most of the external layers of a massive star are removed during the supernova, but some material falls back, making the neutron star spin faster." ...

Astronomers have finally unlocked a crucial piece of the planet formation puzzle by detecting the magnetic fingerprint of a young star’s protoplanetary disk. Using ALMA, researchers observed how dust ...

NASA’s Juno spacecraft has uncovered an immense volcanic hot spot on Jupiter’s moon Io, surpassing any previously recorded ...

In a surprising discovery, scientists have detected "chirping" waves some 100,000 miles above Earth, in a region of the ...

WASP-121b is like nothing in the solar system, raining liquid metal and being puffy like a marshmallow. The origins of these ...

Chorus waves, quick bursts of energy known to occur relatively close to Earth and around other planets, were found in an ...

A team of physicists and engineers at the University of Colorado Boulder has discovered a new way to measure the orientation ...

The team behind this research reached that conclusion when they detected a helix-shaped magnetic field within a protostellar jet designated HH 80-81. HH 80-81 is the fastest protostellar jet ever seen ...

NASA detects mysterious 'chirping' signals, or chorus waves, 165,000 km from Earth, revealing surprising energy transfer in ...

NASA’s Juno spacecraft snapped a stunning image of a cloud on Jupiter shaped like a dolphin, proving that even science has an ...

This discovery has opened new avenues for the understanding of complex behavior of space radiation and its effects on our dear planet.
