Solar System

The new research by scientists at NASA and the Italian Space Agency has implications for the entire Saturn system as well as other planets and moons.

Researchers unveil the possible origins of our cosmic neighborhood’s “Great Divide.” This well-known schism may have separated the solar system just after the sun first formed.

Venus could tell us something vitally important about our planet: what happened to the superheated climate of our planetary twin, and what does it mean for life on Earth?

A hot, molten Earth would be around 5% larger than its solid counterpart. This is the result of a study led by researchers at the University of Bern. The difference between molten and solid rocky planets is important for the search of Earth-like worlds beyond

An interdisciplinary research group from Aarhus University has proposed a previously overlooked physical-chemical process that can explain methane's consumption on Mars.

Has Saturn’s icy moon – Titan – ever been home to life? SMU researchers hope to help discover whether this was true long before NASA completes an exploratory visit to its surface by a drone helicopter.

A team of Hungarian astronomers and physicists may have confirmed two elusive clouds of dust, in semi-stable points just 400,000 kilometres from Earth.

A new study shows that a close fly-by of a neighbouring star can simultaneously lead to the observed lower mass density in the outer part of the solar system.

A recent study describes the extraordinary chorus of eloctromagnetic waves around other planets in our solar system.

Oldest-ever igneous meteorite contains clues to planet building blocks.
