The solar system is racing through space faster than science can explain
Scientists have discovered that our entire solar system is racing through the Milky Way far faster than current models ...
The Gaia space telescope has measured the acceleration of the Solar System when it orbits the center of our Milky Way galaxy. The Solar System motion relative to the stars agrees with the results by ...
As radio maps of distant galaxies came into focus, researchers saw a pattern they did not expect. Their new analysis now suggests the solar system may be racing through space far faster than long ...
The Oort cloud, a theoretical spherical shell surrounding our solar system, extends from approximately 1,000-2,000 AU to potentially 100,000 AU, halfway to Alpha Centauri. Its existence is inferred ...
On a Hawaiian mountaintop in the summer of 1992, a pair of scientists spotted a pinprick of light inching through the constellation Pisces. That unassuming object — located over a billion kilometers ...
Boulder, Colo., USA: A new study of zircon crystals from two of Earth’s oldest continents indicates that the formation of Earth’s continental crust goes through cycles, with periods of increased crust ...
