For over 50 years, we thought we knew the size and shape of Jupiter, the solar system's largest planet. Now, Weizmann ...
International scientists led by the Weizmann Institute of Science have conducted an analysis based on measurements from ...
For decades, scientists have struggled to pin down Jupiter’s composition because the planet’s thick clouds block direct observation of its lower atmosphere. Earlier estimates relied heavily on a ...
The curious minds at What If investigate what would happen if Earth orbited Jupiter instead of the Sun, examining gravity, temperature, and orbital disruptions.
The curious minds at What If investigate what would happen if you spent an entire day on Jupiter, revealing gravity, atmospheric pressure, and survival limits.
Time moves differently in space. Near black holes, gravity slows clocks and stretches seconds. This explainer reveals how time bends and affects astronauts and Earth.
Europa stands out among Jupiter's moons, thanks to its remarkably smooth ice shell, which scientists believe conceals a global ocean of liquid water, perhaps twice as deep as Earth's oceans. In late ...
The simultaneous eruption of multiple volcanoes suggests a vast, interconnected network of magma exists beneath the surface, powered by the intense gravitational pull of Jupiter.
Baby stars, teenage planets, and disappearing icebergs are all featured this week. Plus, a look back at a New Horizons image of Jupiter and Io, and a strange, elongated cloud on Mars.
Despite its small size, Mars seems to have a huge impact on the orbital cycles that govern Earth’s climate, especially those ...
According to the new research, astronomers have employed the Very Large Telescope's technology, known as GRAVITY and have ...
That would make it thousands of times more massive than any moon orbiting a solar system plane  — so massive it could make ...
