More than a decade of data about the particles zipping around our sun can solve mysteries from the behaviour of individual ...

Scientists from NASA and other institutions reported the findings of the first in-depth analysis of the minerals and ...

The OSIRIS-REx mission returned to the sample to Earth in September of 2023, and these studies show that it contains amino ...

NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission delivered samples from asteroid Bennu, revealing crucial molecules linked to life, including amino acids and nucleobases found in DNA and RNA. The presence of ammonia and ...

This runaway growth led to the formation of the gas and ice giants in the outer solar system. This first-order model of planetary growth in the solar nebula is mainly driven by temperature and density ...

In October 2020, a van-sized robotic spacecraft briefly touched down on the surface of Bennu, a 525-meter-wide asteroid 320 million kilometers from Earth.

Molecules friendly to life have been found in samples of the asteroid Bennu, which NASA collected with a robotic probe five ...

All forms of Earth life have specific chemicals in their makeup, such as amino acids and sugars. Scientists have known that ...

Scientists used the most massive fundamental particles to break special relativity, but even that didn’t work.

Although they don't impact the surface directly, historical evidence and simulations suggest airbursts can pack a punch.

Ambitious plans for lunar bases and Martian habitats present unique challenges, especially in coordinating time across ...
