For more than sixty years, a tiny asteroid has been moving in step with Earth, hidden from view until recently. Astronomers now confirm that this small body, named 2025 PN7, is traveling in a special ...

A new celestial object, a quasi-moon, has been discovered in Earth’s orbit. This cosmic companion has been circling our planet unnoticed for decades, possibly up to 60 years, and is now redefining our ...

2025-PN7 is around 62 feet (19 meters) wide, and it’s between 2.8 million miles and 37.2 million miles away from Earth. It ...

The Earth stands alone in the solar system as a habitable world, as far as we know. But that doesn’t mean we don’t get visitors, most often in the form of (usually harmless) asteroids. Some even ...

Earth is the only planet in our solar system with a single moon, making it a rare phenomenon for a planet of its kind.

Researchers are discussing 2025 PN7, a small celestial body that's following a similar orbital path to our planet's without being gravitationally tied to Earth ...

The Moon, our constant celestial companion, is drifting away from Earth at a slow but measurable rate. According to a detailed study published byThe Conversation, the Moon is moving approximately 1.5 ...

Scientists measure the distance to the Moon by bouncing lasers off mirrors placed there by space probes and astronauts.

"It is incredible that modern telescopic surveys have the ability to detect such small objects up to millions of kilometers away." Half a dozen fragments of the moon may briefly orbit Earth at any ...
