NASA scientists have just identified mysterious shapes flying above the Earth but, don’t worry, this doesn’t mean that aliens are about to strike.Using an imaging instrument called the Global-scale Observations of the Limb and Disk (GOLD), the experts uncovered strange X and C shapes, which have been cropping up in surprising places at surprising times.The researchers found the structures dancing around the ionosphere – the area where Earth’s atmosphere meets space – and say that the discovery could help improve radio communications and space weather forecasts.The ionosphere – which sits around 50 to 400 miles (roughly 80 to 644 kilometres)...

Whether stars and galaxies formed before black holes or vice versa has long puzzled scientists studying the universe's origins. Traditionally, it was assumed that stars and galaxies preceded black holes, but a recent analysis of early universe data collected by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) challenges this notion.

Taurus the Bull may be one of the premier winter constellations, but did you know there’s also a bull in the summer nighttime sky? Known as Taurus Poniatovii or Poniatowski’s Bull, this small constellation was created by Marcin Poczobut, director of Vilnius Observatory in Lithuania, in 1777. It is one of countless constellations no longer officially recognized following the approval of the 88 modern-day constellations by the International Astronomical Union in 1928.

Scientists say this asteroid may be from a distant water world

We all accept that the coldest temperature any object can reach is absolute zero. Is there a theoretical maximum temperature anything can attain?. Temperature is a measure of the average energy of a collection of particles. (This is in contrast to kinetic energy, which is a measure of the energy carried by a single particle.) So, to answer a question about temperature, we have to find some collection of particles to measure.

Is there a hottest temperature possible in the universe?
