From planets that rain diamonds to moons with hidden oceans, the Solar System holds more mysteries than most realize. These ...

Pluto isn't the only dwarf planet residing in our solar system. Try your hand at naming the others!

The solar system lost its ninth planet back when Pluto was demoted to a dwarf planet, but research might indicate that there ...

Most planet-forming disks have warps that can lead to planets on inclined orbits, which could explain where the tilt of Earth ...

Astronomers have picked up evidence of an Earth-sized world, distinct from the previously hypothesised Planet Nine and Planet ...

Astronomers have, for the first time, detected a planet growing inside a cleared gap of a protoplanetary disk, confirming long-held theories about how young planets shape their star systems.

A Jupiter-like planet has been found orbiting a young sun-like star in a solar system far away in what is a potentially ...

Our sun is about five times less magnetically active than other sunlike stars—effectively a special case. The reason for this could reside in the planets in our solar system, say researchers at ...

"The results provide a rare, detailed look at how planet-forming chemistry operates in the extreme environments around brown ...

A young gas giant, WISPIT 2b, was detected within a multi-ringed disk around a Sun-like star. Its active formation provides a ...

New simulations suggest that up to four of the solar system's rocky planets, including Earth and a long-lost world, once orbited in mathematical harmony around the infant sun.

Still, the implications are profound. Ceres is far from alone in the solar system. Dozens of small, icy bodies — dwarf planets, moons, and asteroids — could have had similar histories.
