The comet is the third object ever confirmed to have entered our cosmic neighborhood from elsewhere in the galaxy. Space ...

At the ragged frontier where the Sun’s influence gives way to interstellar space, Voyager 1 has stumbled into something that ...

Our Solar System orbits the galactic center at an estimated 792,000 kilometers per hour, taking 225 million Earth years to complete one galactic year. Meanwhile, the Milky Way as a whole is thought to ...

NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center shared the images of comet 3I/ATLAS. It's possibly as big as Manhattan, likely older than our own solar system and it's traveling through space at speeds of up to ...

The Kuiper belt, a disc of icy rocks on the outermost edges of the solar system, seems to have more structure than we thought. In 2011, researchers found a cluster of objects there on similar orbits ...

"It's going to look different because it didn't come from our solar system and that's what makes it so magical." Ever since the famous "interstellar invader" comet 3I/ATLAS was discovered in our solar ...

Critical clearing time provides a quantitative measure of fault severity and system stability, and its sensitivity can help guide parameter adjustments to enhance the grid support capability of ...

"If our solar system is indeed moving this fast, we need to question fundamental assumptions about the large-scale structure of the universe." Astronomers have discovered that the solar system may be ...

How fast and in which direction is our solar system moving through the universe? This seemingly simple question is one of the key tests of our cosmological understanding. A research team led by ...
