  • Astronomers: Yes We Can Spot Volcanoes On Alien Worlds

    Volcanoes display the awesome power of Nature like few other events. Earlier this year, ash from an Icelandic volcano disrupted air travel throughout much of northern Europe. Yet this recent eruption pales next to the fury of Jupiter's moon Io, the most volcanic body in our solar system.Now that astronomers are finding rocky worlds orbiting distant stars, they're asking the next logical ...

  • Astronomers view galaxy just like our own, but with huge pink clouds

    Located about 6 million light-years away, the spiral galaxy NGC 300 has many star-forming regions, which appear as pink or red spots.

  • Astronomers seeking space volcanoes

    CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 7 (UPI) -- U.S. scientists studying planets outside the solar system say they think they could spot volcanoes on the distant worlds by their atmospheric signature. Solar System - Extrasolar planet - United States - Earth Sciences - Astronomy

  • Can we spot volcanoes on alien worlds? Astronomers say yes

    Now that astronomers are finding rocky worlds orbiting distant stars, they're asking the next logical questions: do any of those worlds have volcanoes? And if so, could we detect them? Work by theorists suggests that the answer to the latter is a qualified "yes."

  • Extreme X-ray source supports new class of black hole

    Astronomers have found proof to confirm the distance and brightness of the most extreme ultra-luminous X-ray source, which may herald a new type of black hole.

  • To Find Alien Volcanic Eruptions, Look for Foul Gas

    Astronomers may soon be able to detect volcanic eruptions on Earth-like alien planets, a new study suggests.

  • Science & Environment

    Astronomers have spotted the tell-tale signs of so-called dwarf galaxies being digested by bigger spiral galaxies. Spiral galaxies are known to grow by swallowing their diminutive neighbours; as this process occurs, the dwarf galaxies become severely distorted.
