For the first time, astronomers have discovered dry ice (carbon dioxide ice) in a planetary nebula, shedding new light on the ...

Webb has captured the haunting “Exposed Cranium” nebula—an otherworldly cloud shaped by a dying star that looks remarkably like a brain inside a skull.

The space-based telescopes Hubble and Euclid combined forces to capture the vibrant remains of a dying star in stunning new ...

“These fragments may be the remains of once-larger clouds that have been shredded by the enormous energy being released by young and massive stars, a process dubbed feedback,” says Tony Wong, who led ...

Astronomers combined Hubble's small-scale details of stellar death with Euclid's wide view of cosmic environments to take a closer look at the iconic Cat's Eye Nebula.

A small, round piece of asteroid Ryugu (sample #91), called “S-lunar,” contains tiny particles (less than 1 mm) that will allow planetary scientists to study the magnetic signature of the early solar ...

Scientists from MIT and their colleagues have estimated the lifetime of the solar nebula — a key stage during which much of the solar system evolution took shape. This new estimate suggests that the ...
