Astronomers have witnessed the seemingly impossible using NASA's powerful James Webb Space Telescope.

Have you ever asked yourself why nearly all familiar planets have a round shape and not, say, the shape of a cylinder or a cube? 

Astronomers estimate that there could be trillions of them roaming our galaxy, but what exactly are they?

NASA's new James Webb Space Telescope has confirmed the existence of a rocky planet, dubbed LHS 475 b, of about the same size as Earth

Scientists suggested that about 3.4 billion years ago, Mars was hit by an asteroid similar to the one that hit Earth a little over 60 million years ago. It is believed that it hit the red planet in a shallow ocean region, causing a so-called megatsunami.

NASA scientists have found some fascinating new clues in the search for life on Mars. They revealed their findings in three new papers published in the peer-reviewed journal Science

Oftentimes we see the terms comets, meteoroids, and asteroids being confused with one another. So what are they, and what is actually the difference between these objects?

In this article, we explain how Earth acquires and loses mass.

Our ideas about water on planets may have been a tad too Earth-centric. Swiss researchers have recently determined that liquid water can exist for billions of years on exotic planets that we would previously have ignored.

In this article, professor Alastair Wilson shares his understanding of the matter and takes you on a fascinating journey. Please enjoy!
