Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered an astonishing exoplanet that’s stretching our understanding of what’s possible for these distant worlds. And when we say say “stretch, ...

An unusual object orbiting a rapidly spinning star might be a new phenomenon in the universe. By Jonathan O’Callaghan Earth isn’t a perfect sphere. The rotation of our planet causes it to bulge ever ...

Scientists using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have found a unique planet in another star system that’s shaped like a lemon. The lopsided Jupiter-style planet is so bizarre that it may blur the ...

No known process explains how such a carbon-heavy planet as PSR J2322-2650 b could form, according to new research. Credit: NASA / ESA / CSA / Ralf Crawford illustration Astronomers have found a ...

Astronomers have found what appears to be one of the strangest known worlds in the universe. It orbits a type of rapidly spinning neutron star called a pulsar – this in itself is unusual, but it is ...

Astronomers have uncovered a massive hidden planet and a rare “failed star” by combining ultra-precise space data with some of the sharpest ground-based images ever taken. Using the Subaru Telescope ...

Scientists using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have observed an entirely new type of exoplanet whose atmospheric composition challenges our understanding of how this type of planet forms. This ...

A Planet Fitness employee is recovering on Wednesday after he was brutally attacked by a gym member in Little Havana. And the incident was caught on camera. According to the City of Miami Police ...

Astronomers do not have a photo of Kepler-22b, but they used the so-called 'transit method' to detect it from 640 light-years away. Credit: NASA / Ames / JPL-Caltech illustration In Apple TV’s ...
