The decade-long wait for U.K. astronomers ends as the NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory reveals dazzling first images.

Once the dust is airborne, it hovers above the desert in a region known as the "Saharan Air Layer" — a roughly 2.5-mile-wide (4 km) band of very dry air that forms around 1 mile (1.6 km) above ...

Astronomers have discovered semi-heavy water ice around a young sunlike star, reinforcing theories about the origins of water ...

“The results revealed a unidirectional effect from social ostracism (T1) to Dark Triad traits (T3), with loneliness (T2) acting as a mediator. This suggests the crucial role of early experiences of ...

A swarm of large asteroids likely lurking around Venus could one day pose an "invisible threat" to Earth if left unchecked, astronomers have warned.

A new study suggests that unidentified "co-orbital asteroids" around Venus may have the capacity to impact our planet in the future, with potentially devastating consequences. However, there is no ...

The exoplanet, Kepler-725c, has 10 times the mass of Earth and is located in the habitable zone of the Sun-like star Kepler-725. The ... Based on the results of this study, ...

Trees get most of the love, but diatoms, a group of photosynthetic microalgae, produce 20% of Earth’s oxygen and are the foundation of aquatic food webs. The prevalence and diversity of diatoms have ...
