Astronomers have long sought evidence to explain why comets at the outskirts of our own solar system contain crystalline ...
Webb data explains how heat-formed crystal minerals end up in icy comets by tracking their journey around a young, actively forming star.
This is HOPS-315, a baby star where astronomers have observed evidence for the earliest stages of planet formation. The image was taken with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). In ...
The Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope captured imagery of young star system ...
A Sun-type star situated nearly 3,000 light-years from Earth has provided astronomers with a unique opportunity to observe an ...
Scientists have discovered a potentially star-forming cloud and called it "Eos." It is one of the largest single structures in the sky and among the closest to the sun and Earth ever to be detected.
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope captured young stars in Lupus 3, a star-forming cloud 500 light-years away, showing T Tauri ...
Astronomers have discovered a massive hydrogen cloud, known as Eos, shining brightly in ultraviolet light near our solar system. This newly detected cloud offers fresh insights into how stars and ...
Astronomers spotted a baby star displaying the very first signs of planet formation in the zone surrounding it, similar to how our own solar system was born. When you purchase through links on our ...
"For the first time, we have identified the earliest moment when planet formation is initiated around a star other than our sun." When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...
Scientists have discovered a massive molecular cloud close to the solar system. As big as 40 full moons as seen from Earth, the vast structure — which poses no threat — is composed primarily of ...
Astronomers found an interstellar "tunnel" - a cosmic channel that connects our solar system to distant stars, according to a ...
