A distant gas giant the size of 10 Jupiters is now the first planet outside Earth's solar system to be mapped in three ...

Jupiter's rapid early growth dramatically reshaped our solar system, scientists now reveal. Its immense gravity acted as a cosmic divider, separating ...

Astronomers have identified 3I/ATLAS, an ancient, ice-rich interstellar comet potentially older than our solar system.

The early growth of the gas giant carved rings that formed primitive meteorites and shaped the architecture of the inner ...

Many scientists call Jupiter the architect of the solar system because its immense gravity influenced the orbits of other planets and carved up the gas and dust from which they all emerged. This ...

The gas giant WASP-18b belongs to a class known as ultra-hot Jupiters — giant, searing, gaseous planets that orbit perilously close to their stars. Researchers used a new technique called ...

New research shows how Jupiter carved out rings and gaps that changed how and when planets and meteorites formed.

It's largely agreed that the moon was created around 4.5 billion years ago when a protoplanet collided with early molten ...

Astronomers recently peered deep into space and found that an old, faint white dwarf named LSPM J0207+3331, located about 145 ...

New research from Rice University shows that Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, played a major role in shaping ...

Solar is set to become the largest green energy source globally, the question now for Europe is whether it can revamp its ...
