An international team of astronomers employing NASA’s Webb Space Telescope captured an exoplanet 12 light years away, and in a location that may be familiar to fans of science fiction. The alien planet orbits the K-type star Epsilon Indi A, which is around the same age as Earth’s Sun, but is slightly cooler.

Asteroids regularly fly by Earth at tremendous rates of speed with little to no consequence. A little over a week ago, a big one flew by at 21,000 mph and was knocked off its orbit by Earth’s gravity, but that’s usually the extent of it and not the norm. Sure, it sounds ominous when a […]

Skygazers, the most powerful interstellar marvel, is finally here! The Perseids — considered one of the brightest meteor showers of the year — will peak this month from August 11 to 13, with the highest odds of seeing shooting stars on August 12, according to the American Meteor Society. Truly, between the radiant full Buck Moon, the spectacular northern lights, and the rare double meteor shower that occurred a few days ago, the cosmos have been extra active and show no sign of slowing down.

NASA’s Curiosity rover made a “mind-blowing” discovery on Mars — yellowish-green crystals of pure sulfur, never before seen on Earth’s mysterious red neighbor, according to scientists.

The literal ground-breaking find was made after the one-ton Curiosity drove over a pile of rocks and cracked one open while probing the deep and winding Gediz Vallis channel, believed to have been formed by water 3 billion years ago.

“I think it’s the strangest find of the whole mission and the most unexpected,” Ashwin Vasavada, Curiosity project scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory [JPL] in Pasadena, California, told CNN. “I have to...

There appear to be huge reservoirs under Mars, scientists have said.Evidence suggests that there are vast lakes of liquid water under the surface of the red planet, according to a new study.There could be enough water in the underground reservoirs to create oceans on the surface of Mars, the researchers suggest.Using data from Nasa’s Insight lander, the scientists estimated that the amount of groundwater could cover all of Mars to a depth of between one and two kilometres, or about a mile.But the experts say the reservoir is unlikely to be of much use to anyone trying to tap into it to...
