The intermittent nature of solar energy poses challenges to grid stability, making accurate ultra-short-term solar irradiance ...

The Electric solar wind Sail doctors (E-Sailors) is a challenge-based Doctoral Network that aims to bring Electric solar wind sail (E-sail) from low Earth orbit (LEO) demonstration missions to the ...

In this video, we simulate the motion of an object near Earth using Python! Watch how we apply physics and programming to model realistic motion, from gravity to orbital paths. #PythonSimulation ...

New measurements of radio galaxies reveal that the solar system is racing through the universe at over three times the speed predicted by standard cosmology. Using highly sensitive data from multiple ...

There are a couple of ways that scientists can date planets, so which planets formed first in our solar system? When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s ...

The search for an unknown planet in our solar system has inspired astronomers for more than a century. Now, a recent study suggests a potential new candidate, which the paper’s authors have dubbed ...

Astronomers have uncovered a massive new trans-Neptunian object, 2017 OF201, lurking at the edge of our solar system. With an orbit stretching 25,000 years and a size that may qualify it as a dwarf ...

Recent progress in both analog and digital quantum simulations heralds a future in which quantum computers could simulate — and thereby illuminate — physical phenomena that are far too complex for ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Object 3I/ATLAS is now too far from Earth to aim a telescope at, but prior observations showed some unusual behavior. The anomalous nature of the ...

Called 3I/ATLAS, the object is only the third of its kind known to astronomers, and it’s likely been heading our way for billions of years, carrying pristine material from another star system Jay ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Dianne Plummer is the Lead Consultant of STEM Spark Solutions. Rooftop solar has become one of the fastest-growing clean energy ...

New research from IBM and NASA has used AI to power a new and improved simulation of the Sun's activity, allowing marked improvements in the prediction of solar activity. The project, called Surya, is ...
