NASA's Juno spacecraft has spotted the elusive fifth moon of Jupiter transiting the giant planet's Great Red Spot, giving astronomers a rare view of this small but intriguing natural satellite.

Scientists have discovered a bizarre, red-glowing exoplanet named TOI-6713.01, which is loaded with active volcanoes and may be 'melting from within.'

The great planetary instability, which saw Jupiter and the other gas giants wander chaotically through the solar system, coincides with the collision that formed Earth's moon. Could the two events be linked?

The volcanic surface of Jupiter's huge moon Io got a stunning close-up thanks to NASA's Juno mission.

A surprise coronal mass ejection recently smashed into Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks, briefly causing the "devil comet" to lose its tail — and a NASA spacecraft caught the whole thing on camera.

The icy moons of Saturn and Jupiter shoot enormous geysers into space that may contain evidence of life. New research shows that NASA only needs to grab a few grains of ice from these plumes to find out for sure.

The solar system's eight planets will never truly be in a straight line, but they can get close to it.

From a poem written by a U.S. Poet Laureate to millions of stenciled names, NASA's Clipper spacecraft's trip to Europa will be marked with a human touch.

Data compiled from NASA's Juno mission shows that Europa, Jupiter's ice-covered moon, severely lacks oxygen.
