What an interstellar comet’s chemistry reveals about alien star systems
Comets are often treated as leftovers, but sometimes the leftovers become the primary focus. That is the case with 3I/ATLAS, only the third known interstellar object seen crossing the solar system, ...
Scientists have discovered that electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, driven by tiny atomic vibrations.
Chinese official calls for prioritizing Neptune orbiter mission A senior Chinese space scientist and delegate to the country’s national congress is proposing the prioritization of an unprecedented ...
Ever wondered how those weird, floating \"snowmen\" way out in the deep freeze of the Kuiper Belt beyond Neptune's orbit ...
Researchers analyzed 28 Ryugu asteroid samples and found preserved magnetic signals that record early solar system magnetic fields and water-driven alteration on its parent body.
Electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, thanks to tiny atomic vibrations acting like a “molecular catapult.” In experiments lasting just 18 ...
Abstract: This article addresses discrete-time optimal formation tracking problems in heterogeneous open swarm systems, where members may join, leave or rejoin dynamically, and the total population is ...
A small, round piece of asteroid Ryugu (sample #91), called “S-lunar,” contains tiny particles (less than 1 mm) that will allow planetary scientists to study the magnetic signature of the early solar ...
Astronomers produced the most complete map of the center of the Milky Way, which can provide insight into how stars and planets are formed.
Researchers decoded the synthesis mechanism of heavy-metal-free CuInS2 quantum dots and built a photoelectrochemical device ...
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory has started releasing its first discoveries: including supernovae, variable stars and asteroids ...
