The Klauea volcano in Hawaii is said to be the world's most active volcano, and yet we still don't really know how it was born. New research suggests the original womb of magma lies more than 90 kil… [+3308 chars]
A tiny group of stars has shed light on the existence of a Super-Earth exoplanet that also has the potential of being quite habitable. Gabriel Perez Diaz, SMM/IAC Reported first by ScienceAlert, th… [+1802 chars]
By analyzing data from ESA's XMM-Newton spacecraft and NASA's TESS telescope, German astronomers have inspected a highly variable polar known as V496 UMa. Results of the study, published May 20 on ar… [+3449 chars]
The challenges of interstellar travel are immense. However, one scientist has proposed an easier (albeit very slow) way to move between stars: let free-floating planets carry us. If she's right, it c… [+3841 chars]
What is a solar system? A solar system is essentially a star orbited by one or more planets bound to it by its gravitational pull. Our solar system is home to eight planets, several dwarf planets, ov… [+6612 chars]
Video On Friday NASA released footage of the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter flying further and faster than ever before. The film recorded during Ingenuity's 25th flight on April 8 when it flew 704 meters… [+2979 chars]
Co-orbiting worlds, also known as Trojans, have not been found yet outside the solar system. That's a strange thing, a new study suggests, given we see them constantly closer to home. Our solar syst… [+2998 chars]
Floquet topological insulators are materials with topological phases that originate from tailored time-dependent perturbations of their crystal structure. These materials have been proved to feature … [+5651 chars]
During heavy storms, the normally stratified layers of water in ocean fjords get mixed, which leads to oxygenation of the fjord floor. But these storm events also result in a spike in methane emissio… [+4140 chars]
