TEHRAN (ANA)- A study from Durham University reveals that stellar magnetic fields could be key to understanding the orbital decay of ‘hot Jupiter’ exoplanets, providing new insights into their eventual consumption by their parent stars.

TEHRAN (ANA)- Solar radiation may have an impact on Earth's deep interior, according to a collaborative study by researchers from China and Romania.

TEHRAN (ANA)- Geologists discovered two new minerals at the world's largest rare-earth mine in northern China, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has announced.

TEHRAN (ANA)- A new study highlights how space flight alters kidney function, showing structural changes and potential permanent damage due to microgravity and cosmic radiation and this poses risks for long-term space travel, such as missions to Mars.

TEHRAN (ANA)- NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope captured a striking image of a trio of stars, including the variable star HP Tau, in a reflection nebula.

TEHRAN (ANA)- A team of scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences has discovered that glassy materials within the lunar soil samples, which were brought back by the country's Chang'e-5 lunar exploration mission, contain hydroxyl and molecular water generated from a variety of sources.

TEHRAN (ANA)- The European Space Agency’s Mars Express has snapped the telltale traces of ‘spiders’ scattered across the southern polar region of Mars.

TEHRAN (ANA)- A thorough investigation found that the inner core of the Moon is, in fact, a solid ball with a density similar to that of iron and researchers hope this will help settle a long debate about whether the Moon's inner heart is solid or molten, and lead to a more accurate understanding of the Moon's history – and, by extension, that of the Solar System.

TEHRAN (ANA)- NASA’s Dragonfly mission, set to explore Saturn’s moon Titan, has progressed to final design and construction stages with a confirmed launch in 2028 and a budget of $3.35 billion.

TEHRAN (ANA)- Researchers studying the binary asteroid Mors-Somnus in the Kuiper Belt have used the James Webb Space Telescope to gather unique data on trans-Neptunian objects, offering new insights into the formation of Neptune and the outer solar system’s dynamics.
