New research from Rice University shows that Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, played a major role in shaping ...
Researchers rarely get a glimpse of an interstellar object up close like 3I-ATLAS, so they have jumped on the opportunity to learn about its composition, which can reveal how planet systems are made.
Tiny shavings from a single meteorite could completely overturn our understanding of how the solar system formed, after the space rock turned out to be older than expected. Previous research suggests ...
About 4.6 billion years ago, the Solar System formed from a cloud of dust and gas collapsing in on itself due to gravity. The Sun, planets, and eventually Earth formed out of the cloud. But when did ...
What: Astronomers using JWST and ALMA have captured the earliest known stage of planet formation around the protostar HOPS-315 in the Orion Molecular Cloud. Guest: Dr ...
Discovery of oxygen raises new questions about how solar system formed. In this undated photo, Rosetta finds oxygen on comet 67P. ESA/Rosetta/NavCam – CC BY-SA IGO 3.0 — -- The European Space ...
The James Webb Telescope captures the beginning of planetary formation around the young star HOPS-315 for the first time.
Astronomers have identified 3I/ATLAS, an ancient, ice-rich interstellar comet potentially older than our solar system.
The comet is on what’s known as a hyperbolic trajectory, which means that it doesn’t follow an orbital path around the sun.
