Astronomers from the University of Warwick and Leiden Observatory have observed an
even which they believe is the first of its kind detected - the aftermath of a
collision between two planets. The collision caused
the two bodies to merge into a giant...

Charon From Pluto - V3
An artist's impression of Charon as it might appear from the surface of Pluto. In
this depiction, Charon's phase is new - i.e. the Sun is directly behind it. Therefore
Charon is only visible by the faint sunlight that Pluto reflects onto it from the ...

Kepler 444 - V2
Kepler-444 A is an orange main-sequence star twice the age of the Sun, an incredible
11 billion years old. Orbiting this are two red dwarfs (center, right) and five known
planets. All planets orbit so close to their parent star that life as
we know i...

Stolen Exoplanet
Scientists at Sheffield University, UK, used computational N-body simulations of
star-forming regions to show that the 'BEAST' planetary systems - planets orbiting massive stars - can form from the capture
of a free-floating planet, or the direct the...
