Astronomers have filtered out starlight from James Webb Space Telescope observations to see a giant exoplanet emerge in the darkness.

A 4.1-billion-year-old meteorite discovered in the Sahara Desert offers a rare glimpse into Mars' early history.

Earth has caught itself a new mini-moon, and QQ8 is sticking around for Christmas.

China has laid out its roadmap for landing astronauts on the moon "before 2030," a milestone that NASA hopes to achieve in 2028.

Scientists have long suspected that Mars is geologically "dead" but new spacecraft observations suggests the Red Planet's volcanoes are merely sleeping.

The Hubble Space Telescope is healthy but is being pulled down toward Earth by atmospheric drag. NASA is considering options to extend the iconic telescope's work.

"Little Red Dots are a hot topic in astronomy. You can compare studies to the tale of blind people who are trying to describe an elephant by touching it, and each person describes it differently based on what part they're touching."

Using the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have investigated a cosmic cat's tail formed when two Pluto-sized bodies smashed together.

The findings are another clue towards understanding the origins of 3I/ATLAS and the planet-forming conditions around other stars.
