the super-fast speeds of a neutron star’s powerful jets have been recorded by CSIRO’s Australia Telescope Compact Array and the European Space Agency’s Integral observatory
At least one in a dozen stars show evidence of planetary ingestion according to a paper published in Nature.
An international research team have made incredibly detailed observations of the earliest merger of galaxies ever witnessed.
NASA has chosen the first science instruments designed for astronauts to deploy on the surface of the Moon during Artemis III.
South Australian satellite, Kanyini, has achieved another key milestone with the successful completion of its Environmental Stress Screening ahead of the satellite’s mid-2024 launch.
49 new galaxies have been found in under 3 hours by an international team of astronomers using the MeerKAT radio telescope.
Roscosmos and the China National Space Administration have announced their intentions to build an automated nuclear reactor to power a joint lunar outpost by 2035.
Recent observations of Betelgeuse have caused a bit of a stir and it all centers around it’s spin cycle…
Giant whirlpools in warming oceans could run counter to ocean stagnation that some have predicted could impact the Gulf Stream.
Jupiter’s moon Europa, long thought to be a destination for humans in the outer solar system, might not actually be as habitable as first thought.
Australian-made flexible solar cells will orbit the Earth in a test to evaluate them as a reliable energy source for future space endeavours.
One of Earth’s biggest science facilities, destined to provide an unparalleled view of the Universe, is a step closer to reality.
The Australian Space Agency has awarded Gilmour Space an orbital launch license – the first in the country.
Scientists studying the Trappist-1 system have made a discovery that likely dashes the hopes of either colonisation or finding life on the exoplanets.
Varda Space Industries’ W-1 mission capsule landed in the northern Utah desert on February 21, bringing with it crystals of an antiviral drug that were grown in orbit.
The asteroid moon Dimorphos may have been reshaped after NASA smashed the DART spacecraft into it back in 2022, according to international scientists.
The Varda Space Industries W-2 capsule safely returned to Earth at Southern Launch’s Koonibba Test Range completing a dual-purpose mission with payloads from the United States Air Force and NASA at the end of February.
New analysis of marsquakes, which are similar to earthquakes, could offer clues into how Mars has evolved over billions of years, according to new research from The Australian National University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Distant neutron stars typically spin a full 360 degrees within seconds. However, a new type of ‘radio transient object’ – so called as they are detected in radio waves – has emerged that rotate much more slowly. In the time it takes this cosmic lighthouse to rotate you could watch Interstellar twice before it completes a full spin.
An international study led by Australian astronomers has created the most detailed maps of gravitational waves across the universe to date in three new research papers. The study also produced the largest ever galactic-scale gravitational wave detector and found further evidence of a “background” of these invisible yet incredibly fast ripples in space that can help unlock some major mysteries of the universe.
Even though Saturn’s rings appear clean and young, they may be as old as the planet itself according to international researchers. It was previously thought that impacts with small rocky debris travelling through space – called micrometeoroids – would dirty and darken the rings over time, but in 2004 the Cassini spacecraft revealed the rings to be clean and bright suggesting that they are not very old.
Australia’s first sovereign orbital rocket designed and built has finally cleared all regulatory hurdles, and
