Red Giant Destroying Planet - V2
Astronomers at NOIRLab (Tucson, Arizona, USA) have detected what they believe is the
first sighting of the destruction of a gas giant
planet caused by the expansion of its ageing red giant star. All sun-like stars
expand as their nuclear fuel runs ou...

Surface Mass Ejection
A surface mass ejection (SME), depicted in this illustration, is a relatively
recently discovered phenomenon in stellar astrophysics. They are similar to coronal
mass ejections but on a far larger scale. During an SME, a star can release hundreds
of ...

Europa - V5
Europa is one of the four Galilean moons of Jupiter, and the second closest to the
planet (after Io). Its surface is a shell of fractured ice but very few craters, as
the latter are eradicated by surface movements of the ice almost as soon as they
ar...
