New dwarf planet discovered beyond the orbit of Neptune
Astronomers have announced the discovery of a new dwarf planet in our solar system, named 2017 OF201. Located far beyond Neptune, it orbits the sun every 25,000 years.
Physicists take step toward a 'theory of everything'
A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.
Can you burp in space?
Gravity plays a big role in burping, so could an astronaut burp in space?
Astronomers discover doomed planet shedding a Mount Everest's worth of material every orbit, leaving behind a comet-like tail
Astronomers discovered a planet that orbits its star so closely that its surface is being scorched into magma and vaporizing into space.
Black holes may obey the laws of physics after all, new theory suggests
"The singularity is the most mysterious and problematic part of a black hole. It's where our concepts of space and time literally no longer make sense."
Astronomers identify a celestial '3-body problem' lurking in the outer solar system
New research suggests that a binary pair of Kuiper Belt objects, known as the Altjira system, is actually made up of three separate bodies orbiting one another in a complex triad. This rare orbital configuration is often referred to as the "three-body problem."
Euclid telescope spots rare 'Einstein ring' hiding near Earth — and an ancient, unnamed galaxy behind it
Einstein predicted the existence of gravitationally-warped rings of light in 1915. Now, a new one has been discovered just a cosmic stone's throw from our own planet.
