Since it arrived in 2016 at Jupiter's orbit, the vehicle, which looks something like a three-bladed cosmic fan, has been probing beneath the gas giant's dense clouds seeking answers about the ...

A recent discovery of a unique exoplanet continues to challenge our understanding of solar system dynamics as a recent study published in The Astronomical Journal discusses the discovery and ...

Greenery continues to recover ... larger ones in an elliptical orbit out to Jupiter and smaller ones in orbit around Earth. Their study was published in the journal PNAS. Astronomers have ...

One of the photos, which was processed by citizen scientist Jackie Branc, captured one of Jupiter's folded filamentary regions. These are chaotic-appearing, and mostly cyclonic storms that can be ...

With its massive gravitational pull, Jupiter has altered the orbit of asteroids and comets for billions of years. Without Jupiter’s intervention, some of that space debris could have crashed ...

To survive Jupiter’s intense radiation, Clipper will repeatedly graze past Europa (hence the spacecraft’s name). It must enter a specific orbit around the moon to survive; Europa sits in the ...

Beyond our small region of the universe, planets everywhere orbit their stars. Even tiny changes in these orbits can change things drastically, too. Now, a new study says a shift in Jupiter’s ...

A super Jupiter has been spotted around a neighboring star by the Webb Space Telescope — and it has a super orbit. The planet is roughly the same diameter as Jupiter, but with six times the mass.

Interactions between the two stars, which have a misaligned orbit, could be responsible for putting this planet on the path to becoming a “hot Jupiter,” researchers reported in a study ...
