The mysterious interstellar comet 31/ATLAS has sparked worldwide speculation, and theoretical physicist Avi Loeb is once again at the center of the storm — boldly suggesting the object may actually be ...
Astronomers have spotted an intriguing cluster of objects in the Kuiper belt, the enormous, donut-shaped region of icy objects beyond the orbit of Neptune. This latest “inner kernel” was identified by ...
A vast region of our solar system, called the Kuiper belt, stretches from the orbit of Neptune out to 50 or so astronomical units (AU), where an AU is the distance between Earth and the sun. This ...
The Kuiper belt, a disc of icy rocks on the outermost edges of the solar system, seems to have more structure than we thought. In 2011, researchers found a cluster of objects there on similar orbits ...
A new report says that Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb has found a 12th unexplained anomaly in the interstellar comet known as 3I/Atlas. This discovery has caught the attention of space enthusiasts ...
Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS is making headlines once again as it speeds away from the Sun on a trajectory that will see it leave our solar system entirely. On 16 November, skywatchers will be able to ...
Take a journey to the outer edges of the solar system and discover how planets, comets, and icy fragments form an invisible architecture that defies the idea of above and below. Learn how the Kuiper ...
After seven years, Amazon’s satellite internet service now has an official name. After seven years, Amazon’s satellite internet service now has an official name. is a news writer covering all things ...
Amazon is rebranding its ambitious effort to expand global access to high-speed internet: Project Kuiper will now be known as Amazon Leo. The Seattle-based tech giant announced Thursday that it was ...
This then leads to two models for cometary sources: 1) Short period comets come from a source at the outer edges of the known Solar System (a disk of material called the Kuiper Belt) and are sometimes ...
Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) is this year’s brightest comet visible from Earth—an icy relic from the solar system’s origins that won’t return until the next millennium. Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon), captured ...
