This video explores the key characteristics of each planet within our solar system. Suitable for teaching science at KS1 and ...

NASA's testing a solar sail system in space, and the spacecraft that brought the tech there has snapped a photo.

NASA's most distant spacecraft had a critical thruster problem far from home. Fixing it required a long-distance call to ...

Now, however, Pluto and that part of the solar system has moved away from the backdrop of the Milky Way into a sparser region of the night sky. With its Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC), Subaru has discovered ...

"Primordial black holes do not live in the solar system. Rather, they're streaming through the universe, doing their own ...

A new study suggests that a microscopic black hole might pass through our solar system once every decade or so.

If microscopic black holes born a fraction of a second after the Big Bang exist, then at least one may fly through the solar ...

Scientists say microscopic black holes could explain the elusive "dark matter" that makes up a quarter of all matter in the ...

Flybys of primordial black holes may occur once a decade. Tweaks to the orbits of planets and GPS satellites could give away their presence.

According to a new study, if a primordial black hole passed within a few hundred million miles of Mars, it could shift the planet's orbit by about a meter -- causing a "wobble." ...

But there’s still another way to virtually explore most of the solar system a la Google Maps: it’s called Google Maps in Space. Google Maps in Space allows you to zoom over the surface of the ...

Our solar system might still bear the scars from an extremely close shave with an alien star. Such an encounter – the closest pass we know of – would have shaken up objects on the outskirts ...
