Hubble reveals a vast cosmic bubble where massive stars cleared away gas, only for the compressed material around it to begin ...

Moon dust contains an ancient cosmic record, and a new mathematical model could help scientists read the stardust buried deep ...

Scientists have just managed to reproduce a nuclear reaction that had never been observed directly before. The experiment focuses on p-nuclei, unusual proton-rich isotopes that do not fit into the ...

For more than half a century, tiny tubes of gray lunar dirt scooped up by Apollo astronauts have been sitting in NASA vaults. They’ve been prodded, sliced and analyzed to reveal the Moon’s geological ...

"Some stars prior to exploding go through undulations — fitful behavior that gently ejects some of the material — so that when the supernova explodes, either the shock wave or the ultraviolet ...

Artist’s conception of a magnetar surrounded by an accretion disk that is wobbling, or precessing, because of the effects of general relativity. Some models of magnetars suggest that high-speed jets ...
