Earth could be thrown off its orbit and flung into another planet or even the Sun due to gravitational disturbances caused by passing stars, a new scientific study has warned.

Passing stars could trigger instability across the solar system, resulting in Earth being hauled out of its orbit.

OF201, the object belongs to the same all-star family as Pluto: dwarf planets. Its diameter, roughly 435 miles (700 km), is ...

Cosmoknowledge's video highlights the cosmic forces protecting life on Earth. The Moon stabilizes our oceans and absorbs asteroid impacts, while Jupiter deflects space debris. The Sun's heliosphere ...

Welcome to the universe of parallel playgrounds—where seesaws hover in anti-gravity capsules, and jungle gyms coil like strands of DNA on planets unexplored.

Many people hold Pluto close in their hearts and refuse to abandon the assertion that it is a planet, although science doesn't see it that way.

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has discovered that a hazy sky over frozen Pluto is helping to cool the dwarf planet's ...

The fire planet (Vulcan) was always theorized but never proved. During a solar eclipse over 100 years ago, some people swears ...

For the unversed, "Planet Nine" is a hypothetical planet which is reportedly larger than Earth that is thought to orbit beyond Neptune.

A possible new dwarf planet has been discovered at the edge of our solar system, so far-flung that it takes around 25,000 ...

Meanwhile, Jupiter moved inward, and its massive gravity forced some forming planets into the Sun, where they disintegrated. Along the way, Jupiter flung some smaller rocks out of the solar system ...

Scientists have identified an object about 435 miles (700 km) wide inhabiting the frigid outer reaches of our solar system that might qualify as a dwarf planet, spotting it as it travels on a highly ...
