Faint signatures detected by the Canada France Hawaii Telescope have revealed 128 new moons around Saturn, making it the ...

The gas giant WASP-121b, also known as Tylos, has an atmospheric structure unlike any we have ever seen, and the fastest ...

Saturn's iconic ring system will disappear, albeit temporarily, on March 23—a preview of its fate in 100 million years.

The spiral pattern is due to the Coriolis effect, which is when a planet’s rotation bends the course of winds. The darker parts of the spiral are actually deep canyons, which have been cut over ...

Frontier's first Unlocked livestream of 2025 has unveiled what Planet Coaster 2 players can expect when Updates 3 and ...

while Kepler-62's exoplanet has a 155-day rotation period. While both planets would likely be locked into a synchronous orbit -- with a permanent dayside and a perpetual nightside -- the ultrafast ...

How's the weather up there? On Mars, weather forecasts haven't always been right at our fingertips. Now, recent research from ...

Mars' atmosphere moves differently from Earth's due to gravity waves. These waves affect air circulation at high altitudes.

The study suggests changes are occurring deep within our planet, which could have implications ... and in the opposite direction relative to the rotation of the Earth's surface.

By the laws of physics, the slowest the Earth could slow its spin would be 1 rotation every 365 days. That situation is called "sun-synchronous" and would force one side of our planet to always ...

The dividing line between gas giant planets and failed stars is blurry at best. The isolated planetary-mass object SIMP ...

A new study revealed that atmospheric gravity waves play a crucial role in driving latitudinal air currents on Mars, particularly at high altitudes. The findings, based on long-term atmospheric data, ...
