Researchers have used machine learning to dramatically speed up the processing time when simulating galaxy evolution coupled with supernova explosion. This approach could help us understand the ...

UF engineers, backed by DARPA and NASA, are perfecting laser-forming techniques that let metal sheets fold themselves into ...

Before it met the 30,000-50,000 kelvin wall at the edge of our Solar System, Voyager 1 took its final images.

ESCANABA, Mich. (WLUC) - The far reaches of outer space are coming right here to planet Earth. Specifically, you can now go on a self-guided walk across the solar system in downtown Escanaba ...

“In contrast, using a state-of-the-art solar system model, including a lunar contribution and J2 (the Moon and Sun’s quadrupole moment), and random stellar parameters, we find no influence of ...

Maximizing solar array power generation in Earth-orbiting satellites traditionally relies on sun sensors, which increase system complexity and cost. This paper proposes an orbital-attitude coupled ...

Home sweet home If you were to look at a giant picture of space, zoom in on the Milky Way galaxy, and then zoom in again on one of its outer spiral arms, you’d find the solar system. Astronomers ...

In 2005 Levison and his colleagues at the Côte d’Azur Observatory in Nice, France, published an influential hypothesis, now called the Nice model, which posits that the solar system began with ...

Recently, we introduced a simple power law model (PLM) to represent the J-V characteristics of an illuminated solar cell with parasitic resistances. The model is useful for design, characterization, ...

A possible cousin of Pluto seems to be circling the far reaches of the solar system. The dwarf planet candidate 2017 OF201 travels in a superwide orbit, with the sun relatively near one end of its ...

The sun is the star at the center of our solar system. It's the largest, brightest and most massive object in the solar system, and it provides the light and heat that life on Earth depends on ...
