On Tuesday morning at 8:15 a.m. ET, we will get our first look at the images snapped by the recently launched Euclid space telescope.

Researchers have found them to be a significant contributor to aging in roundworms.

The results of a new scientific study suggest that huge sections of an alien planet known as Theia may reside deep within our planet, close to the Earth's core, following a cataclysmic collision that took place 4.5 million years ago.

Insights could help improve future designs of naval ships, seaplanes, or projectiles.

On Nov. 6, 1572, the German astronomer Wolfgang Schulër observed a supernova with his bare eyes. He spotted the exploding star in the constellation Cassiopeia. It was as bright as Venus and could even be seen during the day. Astronomers were really confused,…

A G3 “geomagnetic storm,” featuring energy from the sun, was to responsible for the colorful outburst

The mission team is making sure the robotic scientist is staying strong, despite wear and tear from its 11-year journey.

Only formally discovered in 2016, STEVE is a mysterious atmospheric phenomenon that is linked to yet distinct from the aurora. Here's where to look for it in the night sky.

In 1916, famed theoretical physicist Albert Einstein put the finishing touches on his theory of general relativity, a geometric theory for how gravity alters the curvature of spacetime. The revolutionary theory remains foundational to our models of how the un…

Lettuce, cherry tomatoes and more are sprouting in space aboard China's Tiangong space station.

To support ISRU technology maturation, NASA issued a Request for Information (RFI) on Nov. 6 to formulate its future Lunar Infrastructure Foundational Technologies (LIFT-1) demonstration.

Ken Mattingly also contributed to other big missions like the Apollo 8, Apollo 11 and Apollo 16 and visited space during the Space Shuttle era.

By combining virtual reality and a real-time brain‐machine interface, scientists discovered that rats directly controlled their hippocampal neuronal firing in a goal-directed manner.

An omen of end times or just some microscopic shenanigans?

"This quasar-blocking dust was actually a surprise. We were not expecting to observe this."

New images from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have helped Australian astronomers unlock secrets of how infant galaxies started an explosion of star formation in the very early universe.

ESA's Euclid will survey more than a third of the sky and prepare a map of billions of galaxies to study dark universe.

In our solar system, little rocky Mercury is the planet orbiting closest to the sun, perpetually fried by solar radiation seven times more intense than what ...

The risk of an wanted re-encounter with the International Space Station in future is considered low.

Saturn's rings are mostly made up of ice, asteroids, comets and moon fragments. In May 2025, the massive celestial loops will be effectively invisible to the human eye.

This Genome Watch highlights how a tailor-made search through bacterial genomes revealed the widespread presence of a new class of bacterial signalling peptides that lack conventional characteristics.

Cooper pairs are pairs of electrons in superconducting materials that are bound to each other at low temperatures. These electron pairs are at the root of superconductivity, a state where materials have zero resistance at low temperatures due to quantum effec…

Saturn's rings will not be visible from Earth from 2025 onward due to the shifting angle of the rings relative
