Your regular sunglasses won't protect your eyes during next month's eclipse. An expert explains the science behind solar eclipse glasses.

On April 8, millions of Americans will be watching the last total solar eclipse visible in the US until 2044. Here's what to expect.

Researchers are developing smart, robot-built sandbag shelters for NASA astronauts on the moon inspired by termite mounds.

Researchers have taken steps toward finding solvents that could be used to extract building materials from rock dust on the moon and Mars.

Researchers consider the feasibility of a knocked-off piece of the moon getting into Earth's quasi-satellite orbit—an unlikely phenomenon.

New research represents a significant piece of the puzzle of our understanding how the moon and, potentially, other celestial bodies formed.

Force generated by the pull of the sun on the moon, rather than heat, may be responsible for the movement of the Earth's tectonic plates, researchers argue.

When people go to sleep and when they wake up changes with the moon, researchers report. The lunar effect may go back to our ancient ancestors.

Rockfalls on the moon leave their mark on the surface. A map of 136,610 rockfalls indicates that asteroid impacts are a likely cause.
