University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill researchers have uncovered a striking discovery: a planet named TIDYE-1b, just 3 million years old - the planetary equivalent of a two-week-old baby. This unprecedented find challenges existing models of planet formation, which suggest that planets take much longer to form. Unlike Earth, which took 10 to 20 million years to develop, TIDYE-1b emerged in

Billions of years in the past, an asteroid of immense size collided with the Moon, generating such intense heat that the lunar rock melted and glowed white-hot before eventually solidifying. This formed the multi-ringed Orientale basin, a major impact feature on the Moon's surface.
Acquiring samples of such impact melt is of great value to scientists, who can analyze them in laboratories t

In April 2019, a group of astronomers from around the globe stunned the world when they revealed the first image of a black hole - the monstrous accumulation of collapsed stars and gas that lets nothing escape, not even light. The image, which was of the black hole that sits at the core of a galaxy called Messier 87 (M87), revealed glowing gas around the center of the black hole. In March 2021,

As energy from the sun reaches Earth, some solar radiation is absorbed by the atmosphere, leading to chemical reactions like the formation of ozone and the breakup of gas molecules.
