Scientists have shown that Earth’s basic chemistry solidified within just three million years of the Solar System’s formation ...

About 4.6 billion years ago, our corner of space was basically just a boring cloud of gas and dust floating […] ...

The evolution of our solar system was discerned from various factors, tracing them back to the point of origin. However, a groundbreaking observation might topple the existing models of how the ...

New simulations suggest that Mercury's formation could be the result of a rare collision between two celestial bodies of ...

The newborn planetary system appears to be emerging 1,300 light-years away around a baby star known as HOPS-315. Planet-forming materials were first identified using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.

NASA spotted a new moon almost at the border of our solar system. Back in 1986, a theory came up that this cosmic body could ...

A new planetary system is forming around the young star HOPS-315. Scientists observed the earliest stages of planet formation around another star. The process involves the cooling and solidifying of ...

Peering through a cosmic keyhole at distant baby star, astronomers may have opened a new window on the deep past of our own solar system. Weighing in at 0.6 solar mass, HOPS-315 should someday grow to ...

When NASA's Osiris-REx spacecraft delivered its sample from asteroid Bennu to Earth in 2023, scientists opened an ancient time capsule. Inside it were grains of dust and rock older than our solar ...
