New data is revealing deeper insights into how early humans interbred with Denisovans in several distinct events that significantly shaped our early history.
NASA's Perseverance rover has captured striking new imagery of an oddly shaped Martian moon as it passed before the Sun during a recent Red Planet eclipse event.
Astronomers say they have discovered mysterious objects in a region beyond the known Kuiper Belt, which could point to a complex structure at the fringes of our Solar System.
New observations of drifting quasars from the early universe are challenging our understanding of how these extremely luminous objects could have formed.
Scientists have discovered that exposed ice on Mars could create conditions suitable for photosynthesis, allowing microbial life to potentially thrive.
New insights into the formation of gas streams that propel the growth of infant stars have been unveiled with the help from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope.
Something scientists expected to find commemorating one of Earth’s most drastic periods of climate change apparently doesn’t exist, according to new findings.
For the first time, scientists have produced an eerie soundscape of a mysterious magnetic field reversal event that occurred on Earth 41,000 years ago.
