Scientists uncover secrets of lunar volcanic activity from ancient glass beads collected during Apollo missions, revealing the Moon's fiery history.
In new research, astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope searched for signs of interactions between the magnetic environment and the surfaces of Uranus and its four largest moons: Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon.
Titan is the only moon in the Solar System with a significant atmosphere, and one that has long captivated planetary scientists.
When the New Horizons spacecraft swept past Pluto and Charon in 2015, it revealed two amazingly complex worlds and an active atmosphere on Pluto.
20 years of observations have given us more knowledge about the icy giant.
The JWST shows that ice on Europa is developing at different rates in different places, such as Tara Regio, where crystalline ice (lighter colors) is found on the surface as well as below the surface.
After a decade of searching, NASA's MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere Volatile Evolution) mission has, for the first time, reported a direct observation of an elusive atmospheric escape process called sputtering.
A US-trio appears to have discovered a distant dwarf planet with a 25,000-year orbit bringing it into the ring of icy rocks around the solar system - the Oort cloud.
Dangerous rocks may co-orbit with Venus, but new research suggests only a space-based mission can prove it.
New research suggests that Jupiter used to be at least twice as big as it is today . Over time, the bloated world cooled off, contracting to the relatively humbler size it is today.
Anew study said the streaks aren’t caused by water. Instead, the study suggests, the streaks are due to wind and dust.
Data from NASA's Magellan mission suggests Venus could be more geologically active than previously thought. The data shows compelling evidence for ongoing tectonic activity shaping Venus's surface features.
Now, the unique capabilities of the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope are providing new insights into the Jovian aurorae.
Evidence is mounting that a secret lies beneath the dusty red plains of Mars, one that could redefine our view of the Red Planet: a vast reservoir of liquid water, locked deep in the crust.
Planetary scientists research the complex asteroid Vesta which may possess the same fundamental architecture as Earth such as the crust.
