Researchers had only hypothesized the existence of underground lava tubes on Venus —until now.

NASA’s latest close-up of our star is not just a pretty picture. When the Parker Solar Probe swooped to within 3.8 million miles of the Sun on Dec. 24, 2024, it delivered a view of the corona that no ...

Using archival radar data from NASA’s Magellan spacecraft, planetary researchers have identified a vast underground conduit beneath the surface in the Venusian region of Nyx Mons.

The University of Trento has demonstrated the existence of an empty lava tube even in the depths of Venus, a planet whose surface and geology have been largely shaped by volcanic processes. The cave ...

On Mars or the Moon, researchers use high-resolution optical cameras to spot “skylights,” which are essentially holes in the ...

"Exploring the Sun's Alfvén Surface in the era of Parker Solar Probe" by Sam Badman, Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian (CfA). Abstract: The geometry of a star's Alfvén surface determines ...

In a groundbreaking effort to study the Sun up close, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has captured unprecedented data on the source ...

Using data collected by NASA's Parker Solar Probe during its closest approach to the sun, a University of Arizona-led research team has measured the ...

In December, we discussed the history of the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, or SOFIA, to highlight the tension in science between an ideal of perseverance in the face of obstacles ...

Every day on Earth, you experience weather. You feel the wind blowing and see clouds move across the sky. Sometimes there are storms where the wind gets really strong, it might rain, or there might be ...

It's exactly one year since a human-made spacecraft made the closest approach to the Sun in history. Called the Parker Solar Probe, the piece of technology came within 3.8 million miles (6.1 million ...
