In May 2024, the Sun put on a powerful display of solar storms, and researchers have examined the source of all this activity to understand why.
Astrobites reports on a hunt for evidence of a universal initial mass function using JWST observations of local relic galaxy Boötes I.
See the famous Crab Nebula in a whole new way: researchers have mapped the 3D kinematic structure of the nebula and investigated a jet-like feature emerging from the expanding shell.
A recent study has found that the observed mass–eccentricity relation of warm Jupiters can be explained by dynamical interactions between planets in these systems.
Researchers investigate a planetary nebula in a star cluster in the Andromeda Galaxy — one of just a handful of known extragalactic planetary nebula–open cluster pairs.
Dust Deal with It
Astrobites reports on why we might need a cosmic feather duster to see life on other worlds.
We’re excited to welcome Alexia Kubas and Lucas Brown to the team as AAS Media Fellows for 2026–2027!
A recent study has used spectroscopy from JWST to decipher the source of carbon oxides on the four largest moons of Uranus.
When Bright Spots Go Dark
New modeling tests a common assumption that’s important for interpreting exoplanet spectra: that stars of all spectral types exhibit bright magnetized regions called faculae.
