"For the case of the Earth, I think it's rather unclear whether it's going to be engulfed or not, but it's certainly going to become impossible to live on," one of the co-authors of a recent study said.

A southern hole has been detected in the Sun's atmosphere which is releasing gaseous material. This release in combination with strong solar winds might form a minor G1-class solar storm on Aug. 3, warns forecasters.

X-Class flares are the "most intense" flares, says NASA.

Our sun had very few sunspots during the mysterious 70-year Maunder Minimum.

Ex-Man City star Sun says foreign coaches in China just for money

To this day, the largest planet in the solar system still holds a lot of secrets.

South America will have a great view of the total solar eclipse on Monday. Although eclipses have been happening for quite a long time, misconceptions about them are still prevalent in some places. Here are 10 myths, facts and superstitions about total solar eclipses.

NASA'S Hubble Space Telescope has captured snapshots of supernova SN 2018gv, providing a glimpse of the spectacular phenomenon 70 million light-years away.

It is the first intact planet known to come close to a white dwarf and still survived.

A theory by Pierre-Simon Laplace suggested that the clouds of gas and dust around new stars combine to form rings and, eventually, planets.

Despite the prediction, solar activity is continuous so there are still risks for extreme space weather.

The researchers found the mixture of inner and outer solar system materials in two meteorites that crashed to Earth, one in 1930 and the other in 1969.

A team of researchers found that GJ 887 is quite active and it actually flares hourly.

The Harvard University researchers theorize that the Sun may have had a binary companion that helped it 'capture' Planet Nine.

Data analyzed by NOAA revealed that a CME that erupted from the surface of the sun may hit Earth this week and cause a geomagnetic storm.

NOAA is currently monitoring a developing solar flare on the sun that might produce a coronal mass ejection.

GJ 504b is a gas giant planet that has a dark pinkish color due to its composition and formation.

An amateur astronomer photographed a light bridge over a newly identified sunspot, which suggests that it may emit a solar flare soon. The light bridge is estimated to be about 5,000 miles long, roughly equal to the diameter of Mars.

As temperatures continue to soar in Western Europe, authorities are urging residents to exercise caution due to a rising number of coronavirus cases.

Scientists created models to determine the number of exoplanets that could orbit a star within its habitable zone. They found that if there is no planet that’s as big as or bigger than Jupiter, it could have about seven habitable exoplanets.

Through the sunlight that bounced off the Moon during an eclipse, scientists used the Hubble Space Telescope to observe Earth's biosignature. The method could be used to search for potentially habitable exoplanets.

A sunspot on the Sun that's turning to face Earth might emit solar flares in the next couple of days.

A stream of solar wind from the Sun might hit Earth and cause geomagnetic unrest next week.

Researchers explained in a new study that a spacecraft made from carbon-based foam could be used to carry out interstellar travel.

Comet NEOWISE was photographed flying over polar lights in the sky after Earth was hit by a coronal mass ejection from the Sun. Astrophotographer Isaac Polanski of Michigan traveled to the Wilderness State Park to capture the stunning display.
