A new catalog of giant pulses from the Crab Nebula pulsar reveals a feature predicted to exist but not seen until now.
Last year, gravitational wave detectors triggered on what may have been a collision involving a sub-solar-mass neutron star.
New simulations suggest the outer solar system could disassemble within about one billion years after the Sun becomes a white dwarf.
Astrobites reports on the discovery of a new ultra-faint dwarf galaxy in preview data taken before the start of Vera C. Rubin ...
New radio observations provide the best view yet of the WISPIT 2 planetary system, revealing spiral wakes driven by a growing ...
The 58th meeting of the AAS Division for Planetary Sciences will take place 25–30 October 2026 in Spokane, WA. Register today! The American Astronomical Society (AAS) is the major organization of ...
Luckily, one transit astronomer’s trash data can be a pulsation timer’s treasure. For some A-type stars called δ Scuti stars, the pulsation is regular enough to be used like a cosmic clock. Subtle ...
Wassenius penned a short account of his observations in Latin for Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society (the longest-running scientific journal in the world!). His drawings of the event, ...
For a relatively simple concept, the IMF is shaped by incredibly complicated underlying physical mechanisms. Things like turbulence, magnetic fields, and chemical enrichment all play a role in shaping ...

Does this relationship extend to shorter-period giant planets as well? Hot Jupiters are heavily impacted by tidal interactions with their host stars, circularizing their orbits and erasing dynamical ...
To make this identification, Chen’s team used archival Hubble Space Telescope and MMT data to examine the location of the planetary nebula candidate M279 within the Andromeda Galaxy. The researchers’ ...
