Ver en NASA ↗How did scientists know that NASA Voyager spacecraft entered interstellar space? Increase in the density of charged particles was the key piece of evidence. Our sun sits in a bubble, called the heliosphere, carved out by wind emitted from the hot sun.
Ver en NASA ↗An optical color image of galaxies is seen here overlaid with X-ray data magenta from NASA Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array NuSTAR. Both magenta blobs show X-rays from massive black holes buried at the hearts of galaxies.
Ver en NASA ↗A trip past the sun may have selectively altered the production of one form of water in a comet – an effect not seen by astronomers before, a new NASA study suggests. Astronomers from NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, observed the Oo…
Ver en NASA ↗An expanded view of comet C/2006 W3 Christensen is shown here. NASA WISE spacecraft observed this comet on April 20th, 2010 as it traveled through the constellation Sagittarius.
