NASA’s newly launched IMAP mission is set to tell us more about the boundary between our Solar System and interstellar space ...
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 ...
Astrophysicists are mapping a vast, hidden structure in space that appears to guide matter and radiation along a kind of interstellar highway stretching from our solar neighborhood to distant stars.
Astronomers have spotted 3I/ATLAS, just the third interstellar object ever seen in our solar system. Bigger, faster, and possibly far older than ‘Oumuamua or Borisov, this icy traveler could help ...
An ancient comet discovered in our solar system this summer is offering a rare opportunity to learn more about distant planetary systems far beyond the reach of any spacecraft, researchers say. The ...
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 ...
