Meet HD 98800, a nearby quadruple‑star system in the constellation Crater. It sits about 150 light‑years away and is 10 million years old.

Planets may begin forming much earlier than scientists once believed during the final stages of a star s birth, not afterward. This bold new model, backed by simulations from researchers at SwRI, ...

Scientists found two Earth-sized planets and a third candidate orbiting a nearby double star system, TOI-2267.

Simulations reveal that Jupiter’s rapid growth disrupted the early solar system, creating rings where new planetesimals ...

Astronomers have spotted a planetary system being conceived from the swirl of gas and dust surrounding a star — giving us an unprecedented, real-time look at how our solar system would've formed some ...

An international team of astronomers has made the unexpected discovery of a new planet. Detected at an early stage of formation around a young Sun-like star, the planet is estimated to be about 5 ...

Scientists have discovered a potentially star-forming cloud and called it "Eos." It is one of the largest single structures in the sky and among the closest to the sun and Earth ever to be detected.

Researchers have found alcohol in the orbit of a young star, and it could help them understand the origins of life on Earth. Methanol (methyl alcohol) and its isotopes (versions of elements) were ...

High-resolution near-infrared light captured by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope shows extraordinary new detail and structure in Lynds 483 (L483). Two actively forming stars are responsible for the ...
