If you've been wondering how long the day on Uranus is, you probably need to get out more. But if you have, you'll be interested to know that observations by the Hubble Space Telescope have shown that it's 28 seconds longer than previously thought.
Titan, Saturn's largest moon, is a strange, alien world. Covered in rivers and lakes of liquid methane, icy boulders and dunes of soot-like "sand," its topography has long fascinated scientists and invited speculation on whether life-forms might lurk beneath the moon's thick, hazy atmosphere.
University of Warwick astronomers have discovered an extremely rare, high-mass, compact binary star system only ~150 light years away. These two stars are on a collision course to explode as a type 1a supernova, appearing 10 times brighter than the moon in the night sky.
It's a messy eater.
Are the mysterious stars clues to one of the greatest mysteries in the universe?

The European Space Agency (ESA) released the first batch of images and data for its Euclid space telescope. The images focus on Euclid’s three deep field areas, patches of sky the telescope will observe dozens of times to peer deep into the cosmos. Though the new release only contains Euclid’s first look into these areas, it has already provided astronomers with a treasure trove of data on galaxies and other cosmic phenomena.
According to new simulations, many, even most, planets get ejected from their star early in their history
The six-wheeled explorer recently captured several red planet mini-twisters spinning on the rim of Jezero Crater.
A black hole is a region of space where gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. There are two main types of black hole; stellar mass and supermassive black holes, and they differ in size, formation, and impact on their host galaxy. Stellar mass black holes, a few to dozens of ...

20-Year Hubble Study of Uranus Yields New Atmospheric Insights
Hubble images reveal changes on Uranus for the four years that Hubble's STIS instrument observed Uranus across a 20-year period.
NASA's Parker Solar Probe has repeated its record-smashing performance of December 2024, swooping down within a scorching 6.1 million kilometers (3.8 million miles) of the Sun's surface.
NASA's Electrodynamic Dust Shield (EDS) successfully demonstrated its ability to remove regolith, or lunar dust and dirt, from its various surfaces on the moon during Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost Mission 1, which concluded on March 16.

Lunar dust is extremely abrasive and electrostatic, which means it clings to anything that carries a charge. It can damage everything from spacesuits and hardware to human lungs, making lunar dust one of the most challenging features of living and working on the lunar surface.
When the AMSAT-OSCAR 7 (AO-7) amateur radio satellite was launched in 1974, its expected lifespan was about five years. The plucky little satellite made it to 1981 when a battery failure caused it …
Martian dust storms can potentially cause respiratory issues and elevated risk of disease, making them yet another health hazard space agencies need to prepare for, according to new research by the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California (USC).
"It was so stunning to not just see the auroras, but the detail and clarity of the signature really shocked me."
An international team of researchers used multi-wavelength observations of active galactic nuclei to study how black holes launch relativistic jets. The sixteen sources were observed with the Event Horizon Telescope during its first campaign in 2017. The extreme resolution achieved by the Event Hori...
Webb Spots Tornado-Like Herbig-Haro Object
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have produced a high-resolution image of Herbig-Haro object 49/50 (HH 49/50), which is located about 630 light-years away in the constellation of Chamaeleon.
