A weak magnetic field likely attracted matter inward, contributing to the formation of the outer planetary bodies, from ...

The discovery that inert helium can form bonds with iron may reshape our understanding of Earth’s history. Researchers from ...

Nuclear pulse propulsion is a technology that would work. It was being developed in the 1960s but it was stopped because of ...

Researchers from Japan and Taiwan reveal for the first time that helium, usually considered chemically inert, can bond with iron under high pressures. They used a laser-heated diamond anvil cell to ...

This could challenge long-standing ideas about the planet's internal structure and history, and may even reveal details of the nebula our solar system coalesced from. The research is published in ...

It indicates that the young Earth may have captured gases from the solar nebula, a cloud of hydrogen and helium surrounding the nascent solar system. This hypothesis contradicts traditional models, ...

Researchers from Japan and Taiwan reveal for the first time that helium, usually considered chemically inert, can bond with iron under high pressures ...

"The goal of this project was to explore the fundamental low-mass limit of the star and brown dwarf formation process." ...

Our Solar System is in motion and cruises at about 200 kilometres per second relative to the center of the Milky Way.

"The goal of this project was to explore the fundamental low-mass limit of the star and brown dwarf formation process." The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has probed deep into the dusty shroud ...

This butterfly shaped nebula is the perfect target for the James Webb Space Telescope to learn more about star formation.
