The future of our solar system has long captivated both scientists and stargazers alike. As highlighted in a recent Live Science article, our solar system, which has existed for 4.6 billion years, is ...

“2017 OF201 spends only 1% of its orbital time close enough to us to be detectable. The presence of this single object suggests that there could be another hundred or so other objects with similar ...

Voyager 1, launched in 1977, has traveled farther than any spacecraft in human history. After more than four decades of silent endurance through space, it now sails beyond the orbit of the outer ...

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has confirmed an interstellar object is passing through our solar system. The object is a comet hailing from the direction of the constellation ...

New measurements of radio galaxies reveal that the solar system is racing through the universe at over three times the speed predicted by standard cosmology. Using highly sensitive data from multiple ...

A rare but faint interstellar visitor from beyond our solar system is racing toward the sun — and you can watch it live online today! Astronomers have identified this cosmic interloper as 3I/ATLAS, ...

Astronomers have spotted what they think might be an "interstellar object" hurtling through the solar system — and it's headed toward us. The visiting space object, potentially the third of its kind ...

An accidental discovery might change how we think about one of the most mysterious structures in our solar system. The Oort Cloud, a large expanse of icy bodies revolving around the sun at a distance ...

The search for an unknown planet in our solar system has inspired astronomers for more than a century. Now, a recent study suggests a potential new candidate, which the paper’s authors have dubbed ...

The workings of our solar system are roughly the same now as they have been for millions of years. Moons circle their planets, the planets circle the sun, the sun’s magnetic fields and sunspots wax ...

NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center shared the images of comet 3I/ATLAS. It's possibly as big as Manhattan, likely older than our own solar system and it's traveling through space at speeds of up to ...
