Astronomers have found thousands of exoplanets — worlds beyond our solar system. Most of them are in single-star systems, like our own solar system. A few dozen orbit binary stars, dancing delicately ...

Astronomers have found a planet that orbits at an angle of 90 degrees around a rare pair of peculiar stars. This is the first time we have strong evidence for one of these 'polar planets' orbiting a ...

Why do comets and their meteoroid streams weave in and out of Earth's orbit and their orbits disperse over time? Researchers show that this is not due to the random pull of the planets, but rather the ...
