July's supermoon will appear full for up to three days, according to NASA. Known as a Buck Moon, it will be closer than normal in its orbit around the Earth. This is because the Moon's orbit is not a perfect circle due to the Earth's gravitational pull; instead it is elliptical, like an elongated circle or oval. Because of this,...
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe Identifies Mechanism Driving the Sun’s Fast Wind Parker Solar Probe data has helped researchers understand how the sun's wind can reach speeds exceeding 1 million miles per hour. This could assist in predicting large solar eruptions, enhance our understanding of cosmic winds.

Deep beneath the Pacific Ocean, in an inky abyss roughly a mile (1.6km) underwater, a curious black-and-silver beast is stirring up mud. With a spotted metallic body and wriggling umbilical of purple rope, to the region's own eccentric deep-sea fauna it might resemble a kind of rectangular stingray. This is the world's first...
A recent study published in Astrobiology examines the likelihood of the planet Venus being able to support life within the thick cloud layer that envelopes it. This study holds the potential to help us better understand how life could exist under the intense Venusian conditions, as discussions within the scientific community...
