Around Jupiter, that contrast shows up fast. Io looks scorched and bone-dry, yet it is the most volcanically active moon in the solar system. Europa, just one orbit farther…

Coral reefs cover less than 1% of the ocean floor but support about 25% of all marine species. Despite their importance, a study published in Nature Communications found that warming water temperatures are causing coral bleaching events that…

The arrival of 3I/ATLAS in our Solar System spawned multiple proposals for a rendezvous mission to study it up close. As the third interstellar object (ISO) ever detected, the wealth of information direct studies could provide would be…

At just 500 kilometres across, Saturn’s sixth largest moon would fit comfortably inside my home country, the United Kingdom with room to spare. Yet new research reveals this tiny ice world wields electromagnetic influence over distances…

Earth’s radiation budget, that’s the balance between incoming sunlight and outgoing heat, drives our climate system. Understanding it requires measuring radiation escaping from every corner of our planet, but current satellite…

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) – The International Space Station returned to full strength with Saturday’s arrival of four new astronauts to replace colleagues who bailed early because of health concerns.
