A total lunar eclipse will be visible from parts of the UK on Sunday evening, weather permitting.

Swinburne and CSIRO researchers have successfully made iron under Mars-like conditions, opening to door to off-world metal producti

Research offers new insights into protecting Earth from harmful solar radiation. A team at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities has identified and studied a previously unknown type of plasma wave within Jupiter’s aurora. The discovery provides new insight into auroral activity on other planets

Weak magnetic fields once exposed humans to radiation. People adapted with shelter, clothing, and mineral protection. Our first meeting was a bit awkward. One of us is an archaeologist who studies how past peoples interacted with their environments. Two of us are geophysicists who investigate int

A new trans-Neptunian object, 2017 OF201, has been found with a vast orbit and potential dwarf planet size. The finding hints at more hidden bodies beyond Neptune. A research team led by Sihao Cheng at the Institute for Advanced Study’s School of Natural Sciences has identified a remarkable trans

A massive impact may have temporarily strengthened the Moon’s weak magnetic field, producing a short-lived surge that became preserved in certain lunar rocks. For decades, scientists have wrestled with a simple question: what happened to the Moon’s magnetism? Instruments on orbiting spacecraft on
