A radio signal has been detected, pointing to the possible existence of a magnetic field on YZ Ceti b, an exoplanet 12 ...

Some white dwarfs in rapid binary orbits are far hotter and larger than theory predicts. Researchers found that powerful tidal forces between them generate enough heat to inflate their sizes and ...

Astronomers located hyperactive fast radio bursts to a faint dwarf galaxy orbiting a larger companion 2 billion light-years ...

The Space Engineers 2 VS2 update kicks off December with a bang, adding the first implementation of planets, survival, and ...

A first ever detection of a coronal mass ejection from a small red dwarf could have big consequences for life on any nearby ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have detected phosphine gas in the ancient brown dwarf Wolf 1130C, a discovery that contradicts years of predictions about how phosphorus behaves in ...

MIT astronomers used the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer to identify key features in the innermost region of a white dwarf ...

Our search for exoplanets is focused on Milky Way stars. It's been successful, with more than 6,000 detected so far. Scientists are even beginning to move beyond mere detections, and working on ...

Astronomers have, for the first time, confirmed a colossal coronal mass ejection from a distant star, a blast so powerful it ...

What if measuring space dust could tell us something about our place in the cosmos? What if we could grow whole human organs from just a few cells? What if we could transform plastic into fertilizer?

Due to the lapse in federal government funding, NASA is not updating this website. We're working continuously to improve our search results. If you aren't finding what you expect, please use our ...

In an ancient star system expected to be stable and dormant, scientists found a 3 billion-year-old white dwarf star still tearing apart massive quantities of rock. “The rate we’ve seen rock consumed ...
