Our sun's planets orbit in a plane extending from the sun's equator. Astronomers have found a double-star system whose planet-forming disk has flipped up - perpendicular to what we'd expect - over the poles. What would nature be like on one of these worlds?

New observations of Venus' atmosphere by the Japanese orbiter Akatsuki - combined with supercomputer simulations - have revealed giant symmetrical streaks never seen before.

ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft began sending back images from its orbit around Mars in January 2004. Take 5 minutes to see some of the coolest images of the mission so far.

Saturn’s largest moon Titan is enveloped in a thick atmosphere, but the infrared camera on the Cassini spacecraft was able to reveal the moon’s myriad of surface features.

One of the most cherished science fiction scenarios is using a black hole as a portal to another dimension or time or universe. Is it possible? Maybe. But choose carefully. All black holes are not created equal.

Of the more than 60 Fast Radio Bursts found so far, only one has ever been seen to repeat from the same source ... until now.

Last week, citizen scientists with Zooniverse's Exoplanet Exoplorers announced K2-288Bb - a type of exoplanet considered rare so far. The finding might shed new light on how planets form.
