A team of researchers has now come up with a reason rooted in space for the phenomenon. They believe a huge interstellar cloud's interaction with the solar system, possibly caused the havoc.

Beyond the familiar planets lies a fascinating frontier filled with icy worlds, mysterious orbits, and cosmic curiosities.

The instrument, which has since traveled to the edge of the solar system, collects and analyzes tiny grains of dust flying through space. These grains hold vital clues to understanding this dark and ...

Astronomers on Wednesday confirmed the discovery of an interstellar object racing through our solar system—only the third ever spotted, though scientists suspect many more may slip past unnoticed.

NPR's Ari Shapiro talks with astronomer David Jewitt about what we can learn from the third interstellar object to have entered our solar system, a comet-like object known as 3I/ATLAS.

Astronomers recently confirmed that a mysterious object, dubbed 3I/ATLAS, came from interstellar space and is now blowing through the solar system at extremely high speeds. It's only the third ...

The Kuiper Belt object Altjira was thought to be a binary, but closer analysis suggests that it is highly likely to be a triple system This raises the question of the three-body problem; if ...
