C/2025 V1 Borisov races toward the sun with 3I/ATLAS-style oddness. Discovery, orbit, expert quotes, and what to watch as astronomers seek answers.
Prepare to look up and reconsider everything you thought you knew about these cosmic wanderers. Comet 3I/ATLAS has shattered ...
This paper describes the eccentricity, amplitude, phase shift, angular momentum, polarization, radial path, and orbital ...
An illustration of Mimas’s ice shell evolution, in which the changes in ice shell thickness (y-axis) lag behind the eccentricity decay (inverted x-axis). Time increases to the right of the plot, while ...
The solar system is meant to be a familiar place, a cosmic neighbourhood defined by predictable, elliptical paths. Yet, every ...

Figure 1: Effects of Pluto’s obliquity on insolation. Over the 2.8-million-year cycle of Pluto’s obliquity, the equator is alternately more and less hospitable to the build up of ices than is 30° ...
This artist’s impression shows a Jupiter-like exoplanet that is on its way to becoming a hot Jupiter — a large, Jupiter-like exoplanet that orbits very close to its star. NOIRLab/NSF/AURA/J. da Silva ...
