JWST has revealed that young planetary systems lose their planet-building gas through a changing mix of powerful jets, molecular winds, and radiation-driven outflows. As the disks age and their gas ...

Star Trek: The next generation (of planets).

Scientists warn that thawing permafrost in the Arctic is releasing large amounts of methane and carbon dioxide, adding to ...

For more than a decade, astronomers have used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) to find what looked like ghost planets — puzzling kinks and twists in the velocity patterns of gas ...

A strange chemical signature in old Hubble observations may point to a planet that formed after its star had already died. Astronomers found unusually high levels of niobium around the white dwarf HS ...

Could black holes have planets? New research says yes, they could. New simulations suggest massive planets could form in the ...

Diesel hasn't always been more expensive than other gasoline. Then in 2004, a switch happened due to air quality standards, ...

Planets are supposed to form early, out of the dust and gas left over when a star is born. Around one dead star, astronomers have found signs of a giant planet that seems to have formed much later, ...

Scientists detected the very first exoplanets around a pulsar — a type of rapidly rotating dead star — and because pulsars ...

Astronomers have found evidence for a giant planet that may have formed from material released as its star died. If confirmed ...

US gas power plans have nearly tripled since 2023, with data centers driving a boom that could lock in decades of fossil fuel use.

Sometimes the best discoveries are hiding in old data. By reviewing archival records from the Hubble Space Telescope, researchers spotted a strange chemical signature around a white dwarf star named ...
