When NASA's DART spacecraft slammed into the asteroid moon Dimorphos in September 2022, it didn't just change the asteroid's ...

The debris found in the otherwise nearly pure-helium and high-gravity atmosphere of the red star WDJ2147-4035 are from an old planetary system that survived the evolution of the star into a white ...

Why this photo of planetary debris is unlike anything seen before. Fomalhaut is one of the brightest stars in the night sky—and the James Webb Space Telescope has revealed belts of material ...

As debris disks get older, some of their dust spirals into the star or is blown away by stellar winds. J0925, however, seems to have just gotten a fresh new delivery of hot dust, possibly from a ...

Researchers identified the likely planetary candidate’s infrared light after blocking out its host star’s overwhelming glare ...

How light is light? The James Webb Space Telescope has just been able to directly image a planet so light and faint that, in ...

Debris disks are circumstellar structures composed of dust and rocky debris generated by collisions among planetesimals and other small bodies. These disks offer a direct window into the dynamical ...

Oldest Planetary Debris Found In Milky Way: Study Two peculiar white dwarfs seen by the European Space Agency's GAIA space observatory were modelled for this study.

The space-based observatory has revolutionized the way we see space, and it can now add another remarkable accomplishment to ...

Last week the James Webb Space Telescope captured a direct image of what they believe to be a previously unknown exoplanet ...
