The first observation of a cosmic boomerang effect offers new insights into how galaxies grow, live, and die.

New research uses computer simulations rather than contraptions to see how individual cardiovascular systems will respond to altered gravity.

Superflares may not cause as much damage to exoplanets, and their habitability, as astronomers once believed, a new study shows.

According to a new poll, people across political and demographic lines think the private space race is good for the future but still just an ego trip for the billionaires involved.

Scientists have long debated whether the moon had a prolonged magnetic shield at some point in its history. A new study may put the question to rest.

Without a magnetic field, the Moon’s surface is exposed to solar wind. These could have been depositing resources like water and potential rocket fuel on the Moon’s surface for billions of years.

New findings confirm "Mars presumably was once completely molten before dividing into the crust, mantle, and core we see today, but that these are different from Earth's."

The new operations centre will help the UK maintain a "battle-winning advantage", ministers say.
