New Confirmation of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity

June 7, 2017 — Albert Einstein predicted that whenever light from a distant star passes by a closer object, gravity acts as a kind of magnifying lens, brightening and bending distant starlight. Yet, Einstein added, ... read more

May 25, 2017 — NASA's Juno mission is rewriting what scientists thought they knew about Jupiter specifically, and gas giants in general, according to a pair of Science papers released today. The Juno ... read more

May 23, 2017 — CERN research results deliver no evidence for the existence of solar ... read more

May 22, 2017 — The emerging discipline of space meteorology aims to reliably predict solar flares so that we may better guard against their effects. Using 3D numerical models, an international team has discovered a ... read more

May 18, 2017 — NASA's MMS mission studies how electrons spiral and dive around the planet in a complex dance dictated by the magnetic and electric fields, and a new study revealed a bizarre new type of motion ... read more

May 18, 2017 — Astronomers have uncovered a moon orbiting the third largest dwarf planet, 2007 OR10, in the frigid outskirts of our solar system called the Kuiper ... read more

May 18, 2017 — Scientists have explored the magnetic field in upper solar atmosphere by observing the polarization of ultraviolet light with the CLASP sounding rocket experiment during its 5-minute flight in space ... read more

May 17, 2017 — Human activities, like nuclear tests and radio transmissions, have been changing near-Earth space and weather, and have created artificial radiation belts, damaged satellites and induced ... read more

May 15, 2017 — One million miles from Earth, a NASA camera is capturing unexpected flashes of light reflecting off our ... read more

May 11, 2017 — A pioneering new study uncovering the 'primitive atmosphere' surrounding a distant world could provide a pivotal breakthrough in the search to how planets form and develop in far-flung ... read more

May 10, 2017 — A group of researchers believes that contrary to a common model sunspots form near the Sun's ... read more

May 8, 2017 — A kind of solar storm has puzzled scientists for its lack of typical warning signs: They seem to come from nowhere, and scientists call them stealth CMEs. Now, scientists have developed a model ... read more

May 8, 2017 — A chemical engineer who normally develops new ways to fabricate microprocessors in computers has figured out how to explain a nagging mystery in space -- why comets expel oxygen gas, the same gas we ... read more

May 2, 2017 — Scientists have confirmed a nearby star's planetary system contains separate belts of asteroids, similar to our own solar system. The star is also about one-fifth the age of our sun. All that ... read more

Apr. 26, 2017 — From long jets to massive explosions of solar material and energy, eruptions on the sun come in many shapes and sizes. Scientists now propose that a universal mechanism can explain the whole spectrum ... read more

Apr. 26, 2017 — Scientists have discovered a new planet with the mass of Earth, orbiting its star at the same distance that we orbit our sun. The planet is likely far too cold to be habitable for life as we know it, ... read more

Apr. 26, 2017 — In the case of solar system bodies passing close to the sun, there are two important effects playing a crucial role in the orbital evolution. One of the effects is from the general relativity and the ... read more

Apr. 24, 2017 — New data from three NASA missions show that the heliosphere -- the bubble of the Sun's magnetic influence that surrounds the inner solar system -- may be much more compact and rounded than ... read more

Apr. 20, 2017 — Storms from the sun can affect our power grids, railway systems and underground pipelines. Now scientists and engineers from NASA have assessed the state of science surrounding space ... read more

Apr. 18, 2017 — Astronomers have reported the first detections of diffuse hydrogen wafting about in a vast halo surrounding the Milky ... read more
