International astronomers have for the first time witnessed the birth of a planetary system beyond Earth's sun that could one day resemble our own.

Scientists are using the images and data collected by the probe to understand the sun’s impact on Earth and the solar system.

In a historic milestone for space exploration, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has delivered the closest-ever images of the Sun — a ...

Released 50 years ago, Sunday Too Far Away deals episodically with a group of shearers led by Foley (Jack Thompson), and the events leading up to the national shearers’ strike of 1956.

How far away it is: 93 million miles (150 million km) What type of star it is: A yellow dwarf star The sun is the star at the center of our solar system.

This Newly Discovered Mini Planet Is Orbiting So Far It Takes 25,000 Years to Circle the Sun A 700-kilometer-wide object orbits farther than almost anything we've ever seen.

NASA's PUNCH sun-studying mission has seen first light — and the team says all four instruments are indeed working as expected.

PUNCH sees first light, prepares to study how the Sun creates our space weather The constellation of four satellites can take both narrow- and wide-field images of the Sun to study its corona and ...

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 ...

An undated image from NASA’s Webb Space Telescope shows an outflow from a nearby still-forming star in infrared light, with a spiral galaxy off in the distance.

Launched in 2021 as the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope, Webb observed the scene in the infrared. NASA said in a statement it was “a lucky alignment” of the two unrelated objects. NASA’s ...
