SPACE

The atmosphere on the darker side of hot exoplanet Kepler-13Ab was found to experience snowing in the form of titanium oxide.

The mission was launched to provide useful insights into how our planet is changing with the movement of water, ice, and solid Earth components.

There are several observatories and space missions that are dedicated to observing the sun and studying space weather.

Astronauts living in the International Space Station spoke to Pope Francis in a unique and harmonious exchange of science and religion.

Ceres is the largest rock in the asteroid belt and one of the candidates for finding life in the solar system.

The December mission will mark the first flight from the refurbished launch pad SLC-40 since the explosion.

The comet entered the Solar System travelling at a speed of 26 Kms per second and may have come from the constellation Lyra, where the bright star Vega resides.

Sand dunes on Hellas Planitia have large, linear scratch marks on its sides at high latitudes.

Humans would live in multiple transparent spheres, each containing numerous self-sustaining towers covered in plants.

The world-renowned cosmologist's PhD thesis has been made public and has already received hundreds of download requests.

The space probe will manoeuvre itself into a new orbit which is closer to Ceres' surface in order to get new insights about the dwarf planet.

It may be possible to see around 20 shooting stars passing through the sky every hour at peak viewing time.

Space is everywhere around us, but for centuries, philosophers and scientists have not been able to agree on what it actually is.

The cave, found by Japanese space agency, Jaxa, is located near a now extinct volcano called Marius Hill, and is believed to be an ancient lava tube.

Scientists used a model that "realistically simulates atmospheric conditions" that led to the discovery of a new process to search for alien planets that could support life.

Scientists studying Cassini's data have found that Titan's atmosphere has several toxic cloud formations containing hydrogen cyanide and benzene over its South Pole.

The existence of a giant open lava tube in the Marius Hills region of the moon has been confirmed, which could be used as a potential moon base.

Experts reportedly believe the Russian sensor, which was delivered to the space station last week, could be linked to a controversial military endeavour.

Rockets and stages earlier fell harmlessly and largely unnoticed into the atmosphere, said Hasan Ahmad al-Hariri, the CEO of the Dubai Astronomy Group.

The Cassini mission's data has provided scientists with several new insights, and Nasa says that it will continue to use and apply the information collected.

Tiangong-1, China's nearly nine-tonne space station, is currently out of control and has been gradually falling towards the Earth since last year, when engineers lost contact with it.

Analysis of the data collected by Cassini space probe during the Grand Finale revealed the phenomena.

In 1859 a powerful solar flare caused telephone wires to burst into flames. But in today's technology-reliant society, a comparable event would be far more damaging.

For the first time ever, scientists have detected both gravitational waves and light from the same astronomical event, dubbed GW170817.

This was the second classified satellite launched via United Launch Alliance's Atlas V within three weeks.

Nasa's sounding rocket instrument detects signs of nanoflares.

Following Cassini, Nasa needs a new mission to look for life on Saturn's mysterious moons.

The fires have been spreading quickly, engulfing more than 214,000 acres of land and incinerating an estimated 5,700 structures.

The X3 is a Hall thruster, a type of ion thruster that creates propulsion by firing a stream of electrically charged atoms, called plasma, out of a nozzle.
