Three definitely isn’t a crowd for planets around a distant infant star. Astronomers had already discovered two planets forming in the disk of gas and dust, or protoplanetary disk, around the infant star PDS 70. Now, using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers with the MIRI mid-infrared Disk Survey (MINDS) project have seen hints of […]

A big piece of Chinese space junk crashed to Earth over Southern California early Tuesday morning (April 2), putting on quite a show for observers in the Golden State. The fall created a blazing fireball

SpaceX launched another batch of its Starlink internet satellites on Monday (April 1). A Falcon 9 rocket carrying 22 Starlink spacecraft lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Bad weather scuttled two previous tries at the launch. This time the weather cooperated and the Falcon 9 left the pad at 10:30 p.m. EDT

JWST quickly spotted signs of a forming exoplanet — but not the one that astronomers had expected to see. Astronomers are hunting for planets in the process of forming around infant stars using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The powerful space telescope quickly delivered the goods, albeit in an unexpected way. These infant planets

The ULLYSES program is the largest Hubble operation ever performed. Now that observations are over, scientists can dive into a treasure trove of data. In December 2023, the Hubble Space Telescope completed its largest program since launching in 1990. With this program, the telescope made observations of 500 individual stars over three years — and

SpaceX had a busy Saturday evening (March 30), launching two rockets from Florida less than five hours apart. The action started at 5:52 p.m. EDT (2152 GMT) on Saturday, when a Falcon 9 rocket sent the Eutelsat 36D telecommunications satellite skyward from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center (KSC). Then, at 9:30 p.m. EDT (0130 GMT on
