Learn how to build a 3D solar system simulation using Python! This tutorial guides you through coding planetary motion, visualizing orbits, and creating an interactive model of our solar system.

Every once in a while, the outer solar system reminds us that we've only discovered a negligible portion of it, and that the vast majority is still full of surprises. The latest example of this is a ...

HELSINKI — China has published coordinated papers outlining dual missions to the solar system’s edge, suggesting the long-studied project is nearing formal approval. A lead paper on the design and key ...

Astronomers have found a compact new cluster of objects inside the Kuiper belt, which is a distant band of icy bodies at the edge of our solar system beyond Neptune. The cluster sits 4.0 billion miles ...

Korean actor-singer Kim Sejeong has released her first single album “Solar System,” marking her return to music after a two-year hiatus. The single is a remake of Sung Si Kyung’s 2011 track of the ...

Earth may owe some of its properties to a nearby star that blew up just as the solar system was forming. This pattern, which saw a supernova bubble envelop the sun and shower it with cosmic rays, may ...

A new study with the incredibly exciting title of "Overdispersed Radio Source Counts and Excess Radio Dipole Detection" has announced quite a thrilling discovery, indeed: Our solar system is moving ...

It may not feel like it, but everything in the universe is in constant motion. Our Sun, with all its planets, orbits the center of the Milky Way, flying through the cosmos at around 450,000 miles per ...

Nothing manmade has reached further from Earth than the Voyager series of spacecraft. Hurtling away from the sun at 38,000 miles an hour, the duo have now traveled over 12 billion miles, with Voyager ...

Astronomers are reporting the detection of a large object entering our solar system, and it is causing quite the stir in the scientific community. But now a fourth and much larger object has been ...

"Our analysis shows that the solar system is moving more than three times faster than current models predict," says lead author Böhme. "This result clearly contradicts expectations based on standard ...

Illustration comparing the planets of the Solar System and the Sun on the same scale. The planets are shown to scale relative to each other but their distances are not. From left to right the bodies ...
