Titan has a strikingly Earth-like landscape, new research shows, including methane lakes, rivers, eroded canyons, plateaus and sand dunes. Titan is the largest moon of the planet Saturn; so much so that it is larger than our Moon and than Mercury itself.

The asteroid known as 418135 (2008 AG33) is twice the size of the Empire State Building and was discovered in 2008. It will fly close to Earth at 30 times the speed of sound, according to NASA.

The human being has been turning the space near the Earth into a garbage dump, with the remains of satellites, rockets, urine... that represent a danger for future missions

This galactic crash took place in the VV689 system in the constellation of Leo. The delicate wings were formed when the two gravitationally bound objects collided and generated 'angel wings' in a Hubble Space Telescope image.

The lineup will be visible for several weeks. Both planets will approach each other within a degree of each other, so you'll need binoculars to tell them apart. The best day to see the conjunction? We tell you here.

Scientists have found the 'building blocks of life' in three meteorites that fell to Earth in 1950, 1969 and 2000. They all contained compounds that have been previously detected but also cytosine and thymine, the building blocks of life. This discovery adds to the evidence suggesting that the precursors of life came from space.

One of the great mysteries of physics is that the values of the fundamental constants appear to have been finely tuned to allow life to appear.

There is much evidence that our planet is a sphere and not a flat disk. A lunar eclipse is a clear proof
