A "comet" is set to pass the skies on "New Year's Eve." The said comet is to appear near the crescent moon on Dec. 31. This comet which is set to add fireworks to the New Year is named Comet 45P.
The European Space Agency (ESA) announced that they have found the lost comet lander Philae.
For the first time in the history of astronomy, scientists have found evidence of a comet, outside of the solar system, revolving around a sun-like star. This milestone has been achieved by an international team of researchers.
A new tail-less comet has just been discovered by scientists which may offer highly important clues as to the origins of the Solar System and Earth. The so-called ‘Manx’ comet is believed to be composed of pristine materials at the time when the Solar System and many other entities within it came into being.
The experiment to create ribose in conditions similar to that of a comet's icy surface strengthen the theory that a comet or asteroid strike could have triggered life on Earth.
The discoveries were made NASA's NEOWISE. Around 72 Near Earth Objects were found in the mission's second year.
You do not want to miss this epic scene, a historic double flyby of comets towards Earth this week.
Comet Lovejoy may have hit the earth at some distant past and triggered off signs of life.
ESA's spacecraft is following the comet in its orbit around the sun.
Data from the comet can be explained only by life, leading astronomers from Cardiff University have claimed.
ESA announced extension by nine months that will help Rosetta study the comet as it moves away from the Sun.
The lander went blank last November, 60 hours after it was projected onto comet 67P.
The finding suggests that planets are not the only bodies to sport rings.
Philae went off radar after it landed on the comet last November.
After traveling through the dark and cold of deep space for ten years and 4 billion miles, the European Space Agency's Rosetta spacecraft has arrived at its destination, the comet 67P.
