"If our solar system is indeed moving this fast, we need to question fundamental assumptions about the large-scale structure ...

Study from Bielefeld finds major departure from the standard model. How fast and in what direction is our solar system moving through space? This question, though simple in appearance, plays a central ...

The team, led by astrophysicist Lukas Böhme at Bielefeld University, found that the universe is, in fact, moving more than ...

“Our analysis shows that the solar system is moving more than three times faster than current models predict,” Böhme ...

Recent astronomical observations have thrown a curveball at our understanding of the cosmos. The solar system, it seems, is ...

A team using the LOFAR radio telescope network made this claim. They combined LOFAR data with two other sensitive radio ...

In simple terms, this means the solar system seems to be moving more than three times faster than predictions based on the ...

All of the objects in our solar system are acted upon by forces. Forces are pushes or pulls. Every force has both a strength and a direction. Applying a force on something–like pushing a toy car–can ...

From an early age, we are taught to understand that the planets of our solar system change in position while orbiting a central star, the sun. But does the sun itself move within the solar system?

Scientists from MIT and their colleagues have estimated the lifetime of the solar nebula — a key stage during which much of the solar system evolution took shape. This new estimate suggests that the ...
