Carbon dioxide has been detected on a planet outside our solar system for the first time. The gas has been observed directly by the James Webb Space Telescope on four exoplanets, all belonging to ...

Follow this guide on how to photograph and observe the neighboring worlds of our solar system.

All of our solar system’s planets are lining up to parade through the night sky at once. This extraordinary celestial event will see the sky scattered with seven visible planets in what is known ...

Our solar system – which includes the Sun, eight planets, five dwarf planets, hundreds of moons and millions of asteroids, comets, and meteoroids – has been the centre of studies covering a ...

However, the parade will eventually come to an end, with Saturn sinking into the sun's glare. It will be in solar conjunction on March 12, effectively ending any chance of a parade of planets.

This process, , is how everything in the solar system – planets, moons, comets and asteroids – came into being. Telescopes can see young solar systems being born.

All eight of the solar system’s “major” planets appear in this illustration, but the actual number of planetary bodies orbiting our star is far greater.

An object up to dozens of times the mass of Jupiter flying through our solar system may have disrupted planetary orbits.

There are a dizzying number of telescopes out there. These expert-selected models from Celestron, Orion and others are a great place to start your search.
