Solar System

A planet relatively close to Earth could be the first ever detected with a potentially life-sustaining liquid ocean outside our Solar System, according to scientists using the James Webb space telescope.

According to NASA, the Great Red Spot is the largest storm in the solar system, twice as big as Earth, and is believed to have been raging for at least 300 years.

As per NASA, the composition of Planet X is like Neptune, but its mass could be 10 times that of Earth.

China's Chang'e-6 lunar probe looks set to begin its historic journey back to Earth from the moon's far side after collecting samples that scientists expect will help answer key questions about the early evolution of the solar system.

Only a small fraction of our galaxy has been studied and the question of whether aliens exist is something scientists have been trying to understand, explore and figure out for a long time.

Researchers described the planet as "Io on steroids". Io, Jupiter's third largest moon, is the most volcanic body in our solar system, with every inch of its surface covered in lava plains.

NOAA said it is a G2-class geomagnetic storm, which is of "Moderate" intensity. These occur about 600 times per solar cycle. They may cause transformer damage at high latitudes, and power systems may experience voltage alarms.

Scientists have discovered a rocky planet, 55 Cancri e, beyond our solar system with an atmosphere detected by the James Webb Space Telescope.

Astronomers have searched for years for rocky planets beyond our solar system with an atmosphere - a trait considered essential for any possibility of harboring life.

Mercury is known for its extremes, and a geologist from Italy recently found clues in Cyprus that point towards a different origin story for the Solar System's smallest planet.

Solar Eclipse 2024: The Sun gives energy to life on Earth, and without this star, we wouldn't be here. But even stars have limited lifetimes, and someday our Sun will die and our planet will be swallowed by it before it becomes a white dwarf.

While the upcoming total solar eclipse is a special moment to reflect on our place in the universe, scientists have been studying the birth of the sun and the formation of our solar system for a long time.

Samsung released new watch faces for its Galaxy Watch devices on March 31 which will tell users the current time on the different planets of the solar system. Dubbed Galaxy Time, the South Korean tech giant revealed that these watch faces were developed in collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA). There are eight watch faces in total wher...

Continuing its push for renewable energy, the government has approved a scheme providing assistance of up to Rs 78,000 to 1 crore families to set up rooftop solar systems, which will enable them to get free electricity up to 300 units per month.
