The Voyager probes are each turning off an instrument to avoid ending their 47-year-long missions later this year.

The solar system drifts inside an immense, low-density cavity known as the Local Hot Bubble (LHB). This region, spanning at least 1,000 light-years, radiates X-rays due to its searing million-degree ...

We can probe the ionized interstellar medium through imaging and timing observations of compact radio sources. As the radio waves pass through the interstellar medium, they are distorted and delayed ...

A team of scientists has unveiled the existence of an interstellar tunnel near our solar system, which could be a gateway to ...

A modest NASA space telescope with grand ambitions will soon launch into an orbit around Earth. Here's why scientists are excited about it.

Astronomers have developed the first three-dimensional (3D) map detailing the properties of interstellar dust in the Milky ...

interstellar magnetic fields and radio waves in the interstellar medium, including any effects from the Sun that propagate to Voyager’s distances,” Spilker said. NASA experts believe the ...

Using infrared technology, the telescope captured a light echo caused by a massive star’s explosion, unveiling new insights into the interstellar medium and its magnetic structures. This ...

"SPHEREx will prove that there are interesting things hiding in between our stars that we should care about." A modest NASA space telescope with grand ambitions is scheduled to soon launch into an ...
