NASA monitors new planet four times Earth’s mass nearby
Astronomers have made a groundbreaking discovery with the identification of TOI-715 b, a super-Earth exoplanet located 137 light-years away in the constellation Volans. This planet, found using NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS),
Something called a "quasi-moon" was discovered in August, and now many are wondering if we should count our new neighbor as a second moon.
NASA has confirmed the existence of a new second moon which will orbit Earth for quite some time. If you’ve gotten used to only having the one moon, it’s time to adapt, because now that we’ve got two, you’re going to have to get used to people asking ‘which one’ when we talk about the bigger of the two.

NASA confirms a new quasi-moon orbiting the Earth until 2083
Earth has just acquired a new best friend in space – a small asteroid named 2025 PN7. Not quite a moon, it has been moving in quiet company with our planet for decades, pacing our planet in nearly perfect synchronization as both orbit around the Sun.
The flight will look for undiscovered mineral areas and hopefully advance geological science.
An asteroid just flew closer to Earth than many satellites, according to space agencies. The space object, named 2025 TF, zoomed over Antarctica at a distance of just 265 miles above the Earth's surface last Wednesday, Oct. 1, at 8:47 p.m. ET, the European Space Agency said on Monday. The International Space Station orbits at a similar altitude.
Space hurricanes are real and their impact on Earth could be horrifying if the terrifying dent in our planet's magnetic field widens
Asteroids, comets, and clouds contain complex organic molecules that form in space and might have kickstarted life on Earth and elsewhere.
