A team of astronomers have found that planet formation in our young Solar System started much earlier than previously thought, with the building blocks of planets growing at the same time as their parent star.
A study of some of the oldest stars in the Universe suggests that the building blocks of planets like Jupiter and Saturn begin to form while a young star is growing.
Colliding magnetic fields reveal unknown planets
"When stellar winds collide with the magnetic fields of orbiting planets, the interaction can produce a bright emission. On the Earth, we can see such emission as the northern lights ," says Kavanagh.
Last year, hints of such interactions occurring in other stellar systems were detected with the radio telescope LOFAR (Low-Frequency Array) for the first time. "Around twenty dwarf stars were found that emit radio emission.
2022, December 13: Remembering Apollo 17, Bright Outer Planets – When the Curves Line Up
December 13, 2022: Fifty years ago, the Apollo 17 astronauts completed their exploration of the lunar surface. Tonight, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are visible after sundown.

Rolling dice to gain insights into planets and stars
Meet The Planetary Academy | The Planetary Society
When did you fall in love with space? Perhaps it was when you had your first look through a telescope or opened a book with pictures of craters of the Moon or Mars.
Members of The Planetary Academy will take journeys through our Solar System, see the awesome sights of alien worlds, learn facts about the planets that are easy to share with family and friends, and do their own observations and experiments as they explore planets, moons, asteroids, and comets.

We tested Einstein’s theory of gravity on the scale of the universe – here’s ...
Everything in the universe has gravity – and feels it too. Yet this most common of all fundamental forces is also the one that presents the biggest challenges to physicists.
General relativity has passed many years of observational tests, from Eddington’s measurement (opens in new tab) of the deflection of starlight by the Sun in 1919 to the recent detection of gravitational waves (opens in new tab) .
TOI-1695 b: A Keystone Water World Elucidating Radius Valley Emergence Mechanisms Around Early M ...
Characterizing the bulk compositions of transiting exoplanets within the M dwarf radius valley (i.e. keystone planets) offers a unique means to establish whether the radius valley emerges from an atmospheric mass loss process or is imprinted by planet formation itself.
We present the confirmation of a new keystone planet orbiting an early M dwarf (Ms=0.513±0.012 M⊙): TOI-1695 b (P=3.13 days, Rp=1.90+0.16−0.14 R⊕).
Leonids meteor shower sending swarm of fiery dirtballs across Southern Utah sky ahead of mighty ...
ST. GEORGE — The year 2o22 has been anything but typical, and the same holds true for skywatchers across Southern Utah and beyond.
So buckle up — there are amazing sights to see from now through the end of the year. Three meteor showers will make their annual appearances amid the three rocky inner planets, as well as the massive gas giant, and will light up the night sky on their journey around the sun.
A Size Comparison of Uranus and Neptune's Moons Reveals Their Epic Names - Nerdist
Assuming you’ve accepted Pluto’s demotion, Uranus and Neptune are the two planets in our Solar System farthest from Earth. That distance means humanity is still learning a lot about them.
Uranus has 27 moons and, even though scientists named them over the course of 150 years, most get their monikers from characters in Shakespeare’s many plays. Uranus himself was god of the sky and air, so the planet’s first moons got their names from fairies and sprites.
