The Dart probe, operated by NASA, collided with an asteroid and self-destructed as a result. The purpose of the collision was to see if space objects that could endanger Earth could be safely pushed aside. Right up until it...

On Monday, September 26th, the enormous planet Jupiter will be closer to Earth than it has been in the last 59 years, making it prominently visible in the night sky. As it rises in the east at dusk, the largest...

According to recent research, a change in Jupiter's orbit might make the surface of Earth even more suitable to life than it already is. Scientists at the University of California-Riverside (UCR) studied simulations of several configurations of our solar system...

New research sheds light on the origin of the Moon, proving its native noble gases derived from the Earth's mantle. The discovery is a key element to the puzzle of how the Moon, and perhaps even the Earth and other...

The Earth has been discovered to be spinning faster than usual, and this is resulting in shorter days. It is a phenomenon that has left scientists perplexed. According to new measurements by the UK’s National Physical Laboratory, the Earth is...

A never-before noticed asteroid the size of a bus made a close approach to Earth on Thursday passing within just 56,000 miles (90,000 kilometers). The asteroid, named 2022 NF, passed safely by our planet at about 23 percent of the...
