May 10, 2021 NASA's Voyager I spacecraft has long since zipped past the edge of the solar system through the heliopause - the solar system's border with interstellar space - into the interstellar ...
June 1, 2021 Astronomers describe the complex structure of the interstellar medium using a new mathematical method. The dispersion of interstellar turbulence in gas clouds before star formation unfolds in a ...
July 19, 2021 The final stage of cataclysmic explosions of dying massive stars, called supernovae, could pack an up to six times bigger punch on the surrounding interstellar gas with the help of cosmic rays, ...
Feb. 16, 2023 Researchers have released their findings on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the interstellar medium of nearby ...
Nov. 14, 2022 First in line to receive data transmissions from the James Webb Space Telescope, a team of astronomers is using the unprecedentedly clear observations to reveal the secret inner workings of ...
June 14, 2021 For the first time, the boundary of the heliosphere has been mapped, giving scientists a better understanding of how solar and interstellar winds ...
Oct. 19, 2022 NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has captured a lush, highly detailed landscape -- the iconic Pillars of Creation -- where new stars are forming within dense clouds of gas and dust. The ...
Nov. 29, 2023 While life on Earth is relatively new, geologically speaking, the ingredients that combined to form it might be much older than once thought. The simplest amino acid, carbamic acid, could have formed ...
Aug. 24, 2021 While moving around within the gas in the interstellar medium, cosmic rays kickstart the background protons, which causes a collective plasma wave movement akin to ripples on a lake. The big question ...
Mar. 8, 2023 Observations of water in the disk forming around protostar V883 Ori have unlocked clues about the formation of comets and planetesimals in our own solar ...
