NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center shared the images of comet 3I/ATLAS. It's possibly as big as Manhattan, likely older than our own solar system and it's traveling through space at speeds of up to ...

The Kuiper belt, a disc of icy rocks on the outermost edges of the solar system, seems to have more structure than we thought. In 2011, researchers found a cluster of objects there on similar orbits ...

"If our solar system is indeed moving this fast, we need to question fundamental assumptions about the large-scale structure of the universe." When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn ...

How fast and in which direction is our solar system moving through the universe? This seemingly simple question is one of the key tests of our cosmological understanding. A research team led by ...
