The Voyager 1 probe is now so far away that it can hear the background "hum" of interstellar space The gentle background noise is what the universe sounds like beyond the pull of the sun's solar wind ...

Cyril Dupuy, the founder of smart telescope maker Vaonis, has set a new record by capturing Europe's highest-altitude image ...

An explosion on the the sun spewed 'dark plasma' into space that resulted in a moderate G2-class geomagnetic storm on Wednesday (March 15).

Webb Space Telescope captures a star in the making and a galaxy far, far away NASA’s retired Spitzer Space Telescope captured the same shot in 2006, with scientists then dubbing the stellar jet ...

Then, you use that distance to calculate what the light intensity would be that far away from the sun. This leaves you with an estimate of about 25,000 times fainter than the brightness during the ...

So New Horizons is now 50 times further away from the sun than the Earth is. This massive distance means it takes longer and longer for signals from New Horizons to reach Earth, resulting in an ...

The cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation originated about 300,000 years after the Big Bang. The CMB's light, initially near-infrared, is now microwave radiation due to the universe's expansion.

NASA's retired Spitzer Space Telescope captured the same shot in 2006, with scientists then dubbing the stellar jet “the cosmic tornado.” But it was too fuzzy to make out the background galaxy ...

NASA and the European Space Agency released the photo on Monday. The outflow is about 625 light-years from Earth in one of the closest star-forming regions of our Milky Way galaxy, according to NASA.
