NGC 300: A nearby galactic exemplarThursday, September 09, 2010
The galaxy's surprisingly normal structure makes it an ideal specimen for astronomers studying the structure and content of spiral galaxies such as our own Milky Way.
Astronomers say it's possible to spot volcanoes on alien worldsWednesday, September 08, 2010
An eruption sends out fumes and various gases, so volcanic activity on a rocky exoplanet might leave a telltale atmospheric signature.
Galactic tendrils shed light on evolution of spiral galaxiesWednesday, September 08, 2010
For the first time, a new survey has detected the telltale structures of spiral galaxies swallowing smaller dwarf companions in star cities more distant than our immediate galactic neighborhood, opening up the possibility of testing our current views of galaxy evolution in a new way.
Two asteroids pass by Earth WednesdayWednesday, September 08, 2010
An asteroid designated 2010 RF12 is expected to pass within approximately 49,000 miles of Earth at 5:12 p.m. EDT. Another asteroid, 2010 RX30, passed within approximately 154,000 miles overnight. Neither is a threat to Earth.
Fundamental constant might change across spaceTuesday, September 07, 2010
Research results currently under peer review imply that the fine-structure constant, which characterizes the strength of the electromagnetic force, might have different values depending on which direction scientists are looking in the sky.
Missing piece inspires new look at Mars puzzleTuesday, September 07, 2010
New experiments suggest that chlorine compounds from NASA's Viking landers then thought to be contaminants from cleaning fluids might indeed have contained carbon-based chemicals, the building blocks of life.
New Hubble observations of Supernova 1987A reveal composition of "star guts" pouring outFriday, September 03, 2010
The new observations of the "String of Pearls" surrounding the remnant tell scientists not only what elements are being recycled into the Large Magellanic Cloud, but also how the dwarf galaxy changes its environment on human timescales.
Spitzer finds a flavorful mix of asteroidsFriday, September 03, 2010
Near-Earth objects seem to be more varied in color and composition than previously thought.
NASA selects investigations for first mission to encounter the SunFriday, September 03, 2010
The Solar Probe Plus will plunge directly into the Sun's atmosphere to learn why it's so much hotter than our star's visible surface and what propels the solar wind.
Recipe for water: just add starlightThursday, September 02, 2010
Observations with the Herschel infrared space observatory have revealed that ultraviolet light is a key ingredient in the formation of an unexpected cloud of water vapor around an old red giant star.
ESO brings starburst galaxy into focusWednesday, September 01, 2010
NGC 4666's vigorous star formation is probably the result of gravitational interactions with neighboring galaxies.
NASA and ATK successfully test five-segment solid rocket motorWednesday, September 01, 2010
Despite the cancellation of the Constellation program, there is still a strong chance that the booster could play a part in future launch vehicles.
Spectrum of young extrasolar planet yields surprising resultsTuesday, August 31, 2010
The data indicate that young gas-giant planets are extremely cloudy.
NASA Glenn tests alternative green rocket engineTuesday, August 31, 2010
The non-toxic oxygen and methane propellant combination has the potential for greater engine performance.
