Two young protostars are responsible for the shimmering ejections of gas and dust that gleam in orange, blue, and purple in this color image of a portion of the dark cloud Lynds 483 from the ...
Astronomers may finally have settled the question of what is causing highly energetic X-rays from WD 2226-210, a white dwarf star located at the center of the Helix Nebula. The Helix Nebula is a ...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have produced a beautiful new image of the intermediate spiral galaxy NGC 5042. NGC 5042 is located around 48 million light-years away from Earth ...
A team of researchers at the Bayerisches Geoinstitut has conducted high-pressure-temperature laboratory experiments to determine the crystal structure and density of the iron-sulfide phase in the ...
Donaldjohanson is a carbonaceous asteroid approximately 4 km (2.5 miles) in diameter. First discovered on March 2, 1981 by the American astronomer Schelte Bus at the Siding Spring Observatory, it ...
New research led by Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology scientists challenges conventional ideas about the habitability of ancient tropical forests and suggests that West Africa may have been an ...
As our Solar System orbits the Milky Way, it encounters various environments, including dense regions of the interstellar medium. These encounters can expose parts of the Solar System to the ...
Paleontologists have found the 4.9-million-year-old (Early Pliocene) fossilized remains of the extinct flying squirrel Miopetaurista webbi in Tennessee, the United States. The occurrence of the genus ...
Called ferrihydrite, this iron mineral formed during a cold, wet period on early Mars under oxidative conditions, followed by a transition to the current hyper-arid environment. Mars is easily ...
Using data gathered by China’s Zhurong rover, planetary researchers have identified hidden layers of rock under the Martian surface that strongly suggest the presence of an ancient northern ocean. “We ...
A new genus and species of titanosaur has been identified from the fossilized remains found in the Hațeg Basin in Transylvania, western Romania. The newly-identified species lived on Hațeg Island, a ...
University of Adelaide’s Dr. Ross Young and colleagues from the QCDSF Collaboration are exploring the structure of subatomic matter to try and provide further insight into the forces that underpin the ...
