It's an exciting time for the fields of astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology. Thanks to cutting-edge observatories, instruments, and new techniques, scientists are getting closer to experimentally ...
Before Earth existed — before the Sun ignited — ancient stars lived out their full lives, forged their elements, and died. A study published July 29 in Science Advances now shows that some of their ...
Our solar system is our immediate cosmic neighborhood. We know it well: the sun at the center; then the rocky planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars; and then the asteroid belt; followed by the gas ...
A research team led by University of Minnesota School of Physics and Astronomy Professor Yong-Zhong Qian uses new models and evidence from meteorites to show that a low-mass supernova triggered the ...
A new study published in The Astrophysical Journal has traced six chemically distinct families of the Solar System's oldest meteorites to a single ring-shaped dust trap just beyond Jupiter's orbit — ...
New work offers fresh evidence supporting the supernova shock wave theory of our solar system’s origin. According to one longstanding theory, our Solar System’s formation was triggered by a shock wave ...
