A weak magnetic field likely attracted matter inward, contributing to the formation of the outer planetary bodies, from ...

Our Solar System is in motion and cruises at about 200 kilometres per second relative to the center of the Milky Way.

"The goal of this project was to explore the fundamental low-mass limit of the star and brown dwarf formation process." ...

The discovery that helium and iron can mix at the temperatures and pressures found at the center of Earth could settle a long ...

Millions of years ago, our Solar System traveled through a densely populated galactic region and was exposed to increased interstellar dust.

The discovery that inert helium can form bonds with iron may reshape our understanding of Earth’s history. Researchers from ...

Look for the Orion constellation and the Orion Nebula (Messier 42) -- our solar system came from that direction!" The increased dust from this galactic encounter could have had several effects.

The entire solar system, ours at least, sits inside a pocket of low density called the Local Hot Bubble (LHB). This cavity in space is 1,000 light-years across, at least, and tips the thermometer at ...
