The space-based observatory will scan the cosmos in 102 colors we can't see to unlock the secret history of the universe.

Pointed away from Earth about 404 miles overhead, the orbital observatory will circle the planet from north to south about 14 ...

A group of swirling storms at Jupiter's north pole are bouncing off each other, like bumper cars at the fairground.

The breakthrough comes from researchers at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, who set out to replicate the harsh lunar ...

Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, and Boise State University have found evidence suggesting that the ...

Who knew that magnetic fields could be so useful? Astronomers are able to use magnetic fields to map our environment within the Milky Way using a technique called Faraday rotation. It works like this.

By Matthew Phelan An office in an obscure corner of the federal government that NASA has relied on to safely land astronauts on the moon and robotic ... s precision mapping as “the gold standard ...

Credit: Ore Gottlieb et al. (2024) Simulations of highly magnetized stars that explode and collapse into black holes show that they transfer their magnetic fields to the disk of swirling matter that ...

Abstract: Optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) operating in the spin-exchange relaxation-free (SERF) regime achieve excellent sensitivity in environments with zero magnetic fields. Therefore, it is ...
