Pictures of black holes have a white outline around them when photographed, due to one of black holes’ unique and key features.
Despite what you may think, Australia has a long history of space activities. But this is the first time the Australian public has been asked its opinions on space.
Chandrayaan-3’s successful landing on the Moon made 2023 a big year for lunar exploration, and future years will come with even more discoveries.
The Geminids meteor shower this year promises to be extra special as the peak of the falls at New Moon.
Scientists analyzing isotope ratios have found that many of the elements that make up life could be left over from Earth’s formation.
Do all big black holes in very massive galaxies emit radio waves? We used the latest radio telescopes to find out.
Sixty years ago, philosopher Hannah Arendt argued an interplanetary perspective may be bad news for humanity as we know it.
Sound needs matter to propagate, so the vast vacuum of space is not just empty − it’s silent.
A newly discovered planet that should be too big to have formed around a tiny star is throwing into question what researchers know about planet formation.
Five of the Uranus moons might be ocean worlds − and if there’s water, there might be life.
Borman’s professionalism helped the risky Apollo 8 mission become a success.
The universe is expanding faster than physicists would expect. To figure out what processes underlie this fast expansion rate, some researchers are first trying to rule out what processes can’t.
Some dark craters on the Moon are never exposed to light − ice could be hiding in these permanently shadowed regions, and India’s Chandrayaan-3 mission marked a big step toward finding it.
In September 2023, a NASA mission successfully brought samples of an asteroid down to Earth in a sealed capsule. Analysis of these samples may reveal information about the origins of the universe.
When you’re an astronaut landing on the Moon, you can’t rely on the same gravitational cues we have on Earth. But regimented training with sensory devices could one day prevent spatial disorientation.
Viral headlines would have you think Saturn’s rings will vanish in just 18 months. Here’s what that really means and why you don’t need to worry.
Despite the distances involved, people as far apart as the UK and Australia can see the Moon at the same time.
For All Mankind is set in an Apollo era transformed by the inclusion of women, characters of colour and LGBTQ+ protagonists.
Space junk and carbon emissions are just some of the problems with a boom in space travel.
