The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a large space telescope which collects light at infrared wavelengths. It has been ...

Scientists say Earth’s magnetic field may have funneled atmospheric particles to the moon for billions of years. Lunar soil could preserve a record of Earth’s past while providing resources for future ...

From new technologies and sciences helping reduce harmful emissions to signs that the planet is healing, here are some of the ...

Exoplanet PSR J2322-2650b, orbiting a pulsar, possesses an unprecedented helium-and-carbon-dominated atmosphere, characterized by molecular carbon (C3 and C2) and soot clouds, a composition unlike any ...

An artistic representation of exoplanet PSR J2322-2650b, on the left, and the pulsar it orbits, on the right NASA, ESA, CSA, Ralf Crawford (STScI) A lemon-shaped exoplanet residing far beyond the ...

A super-hot planet that orbits its star closely has somehow managed to retain a thick atmosphere — even as the star’s radiation blasts it 1. Most close-in planets are too hot, and too irradiated, to ...

Astronomers have found what appears to be one of the strangest known worlds in the universe. It orbits a type of rapidly spinning neutron star called a pulsar – this in itself is unusual, but it is ...

Space scientists are puzzled after the discovery of a bizarre planet — shaped like a lemon. Astronomers have spotted an unusual exoplanet orbiting a pulsar, with a bizarre ovoid form sculpted by ...

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope captured planet PSR J2322-2650b. (NASA/ESA/CSA/R Crawford (STScI) via SWNS) By Dean Murray Space scientists are puzzled after the discovery of a bizarre planet — ...

Scientists using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have observed an entirely new type of exoplanet whose atmospheric composition challenges our understanding of how this type of planet forms. This ...

Scientists using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope have observed a rare type of exoplanet, or planet outside our solar system, whose atmospheric composition challenges our understanding of how it ...

This artist’s concept shows what the exoplanet called PSR J2322-2650b (left) may look like as it orbits a rapidly spinning neutron star called a pulsar (right). Gravitational forces from the much ...
