New data confirms: There really is a planet squeezed in between two stars The planet may have formed from material transferred between the stars.

In this cartoon world built to teach concepts from Randall Munroe’s book What If? 2, you can fly a rocket around randomly—or explore the physics of an alternate universe.

Many don't realize that most of our satellites and space stations aren't intended to be far from Earth, but rather, as close as we can get them and still maintain a stable orbit. How much lower ...

This article contains 3 Body Problem spoilers. The orbit of the Earth around the sun is quite stable, and there are equations that can describe how the two masses pull on each other to keep our ...

A lander from a Japanese company has entered orbit around the moon ahead of a landing attempt next month.

Amazon said two prototype satellites launched on Friday on a test mission of the company’s Project Kuiper broadband internet constellation are stable in orbit and already collecting important data.

The European Space Agency (ESA) and Telesat have achieved a world-first by connecting a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite to the ground using 5G Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) technology. This marks ...

An artist's impression of Kepler-16b, the first planet confirmed to orbit two stars. Planets orbiting stars of very different mass like this have the best chance of staying habitable.

The Euclid space telescope has arrived at its orbit around the sun, where it joins the James Webb Space Telescope and the Gaia space telescope.

Three-body problems—the analytical expressions of three celestial bodies in a stable orbit—have beguiled mathematicians for centuries. In 2017, Chinese mathematicians discovered more than a ...

Calculating the way three things orbit each other is notoriously tricky — but a new study may reveal 12,000 new ways to make it work.
