The solar system is now at the edge of this cloud, but the massive stockpile of cosmic stardust has left signatures on ...

Earth is quietly collecting radioactive debris from an ancient stellar explosion as our Solar System drifts through a giant ...

What if we tell you that researchers have found something interstellar buried in the ice in Antarctica? One possibility is ...

Our solar system is currently passing through the Local Interstellar Cloud, a region of highly diluted gas and dust between ...

Learn how traces of a rare radioactive element preserved in Antarctic ice may show that the Solar System is currently passing ...

When you think of outer space, you're likely picturing stars, planets and moons. But much of space is filled with clouds of gas, plasma and stardust—known as interstellar clouds.

Earth is flying through the radioactive ashes of an ancient exploded star, and Antarctic ice preserved the evidence.

Dresden researchers have discovered traces of the rare isotope iron-60 in Antarctic ice. The findings suggest that Earth and ...

Captured by the Hubble Space Telescope, the heliosphere of a young star, LL Orionis, collides with an interstellar medium of dust. A similar event with our own sun, researchers say, might have ...

Interstellar cloud interactions are governed by the interplay of fluid dynamics and magnetic forces as cold, dense clouds encounter hotter, ionised surroundings. Magnetic fields thread both the clouds ...
