After over three decades of scrutinising our Universe, Hubble remains a household word as the most well-recognised telescope in scientific history.
New research finds that despite large rivers and seas of liquid methane, Saturn's moon Titan seems mostly devoid of river deltas.
Astronomers have detected the most promising signs yet of a possible biosignature outside the solar system, although they remain cautious.
New research led by University of Hawaii astronomers suggests our Universe may rotate - just extremely slowly.
The distribution of valley heads on Mars matches predictions for a climate that includes precipitation rather than just runoff from melting ice caps.
Astronomers at MIT have discovered a rocky exoplanet orbiting the bright K-dwarf star BD+05 4868A and observed variable transit depths that are characteristic of comet-like tails.
In a new image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, a galaxy named for its resemblance to a broad-brimmed Mexican hat appears more like an archery target.

Slushy hail, made of water and ammonia, may form during lightning-packed storms, giving researchers fresh clues about what lurks beneath the planet’s colorful cloud tops.
Using a rare type of meteorite, enstatite chondrite, which has a composition analogous to that of the early Earth - researchers have found a source of hydrogen which would have been critical for the formation of water molecules.
Since the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) began science operations, astronomers have observed galaxies that existed more than 13 billion years ago.
A team of researchers at Nagoya University has discovered evidence that the Small Magellanic Cloud is potentially being torn apart by gravitational forces from its larger companion.
A massive black hole at the heart of a galaxy in the Virgo constellation is waking up, shooting out intense X-ray flares at regular intervals that have puzzled scientists
NASA's new infrared space telescope, SPHEREx, is designed to give us unprecedented insights into the evolution of the Universe.
The "music" of starquakes - enormous vibrations caused by bursting bubbles of gas that ripple throughout the bodies of many stars - can reveal far more information about the stars.
