Pendulum simulation and visualization in Python physics. This video demonstrates how to model pendulum motion numerically and visualize the results to better understand oscillations, forces, and ...

In September, NASA announced the discovery of a possible sign of life, known as a potential biosignature, on Mars. The Perseverance rover, which has been exploring a dried-up lakebed for years, found ...

3I/ATLAS has now made its closest approach to the sun and Earth and is now heading back out toward the outer solar system. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

The giant planets weren't always where we find them today. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune formed in a more compact configuration and later underwent a violent reshuffling that scattered them to ...

Earth may owe some of its properties to a nearby star that blew up just as the solar system was forming. This pattern, which saw a supernova bubble envelop the sun and shower it with cosmic rays, may ...

The comet is the third object ever confirmed to have entered our cosmic neighborhood from elsewhere in the galaxy. Space telescopes and orbiters have been documenting the rare visit. A mysterious ...

New measurements of radio galaxies reveal that the solar system is racing through the universe at over three times the speed predicted by standard cosmology. Using highly sensitive data from multiple ...

How fast and in which direction is our solar system moving through the universe? This seemingly simple question is one of the key tests of our cosmological understanding. A research team led by ...

An interstellar object known as 3I/ATLAS has gathered a significant amount of attention in the planetary science sphere, and soon it will reach its closest point to the sun. 3I/ATLAS is the third-ever ...

Voyager 1, launched in 1977, has traveled farther than any spacecraft in human history. After more than four decades of silent endurance through space, it now sails beyond the orbit of the outer ...

The search for an unknown planet in our solar system has inspired astronomers for more than a century. Now, a recent study suggests a potential new candidate, which the paper’s authors have dubbed ...

A mysterious object hurtling through space has been identified as a rare “interstellar object,” only the third of its kind ever seen. In July, NASA reported its ATLAS (Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last ...
