The team found that the lineae occurred preferentially on the Sun-facing slopes of the younger impact craters. This suggests ...

The Next Generation Jammer features high-power amplifier technology and an extended range. APL provided technical insight and ...

3I/ATLAS was discovered by the NASA-funded ATLAS survey telescope in Rio Hurtado, Chile, on July 1, 2025. Also known as C/2025 N1 (ATLAS) and A11pl3Z, the interstellar comet arrived from the direction ...

The number 40,000 might not sound particularly dramatic, but it represents humanity's growing catalog of near-Earth asteroids, rocky remnants from the solar system's violent birth that cross paths ...

Last year, a study led by planetary scientist Richard Cartwright at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Maryland, proposed that deposits of carbon dioxide ice and other ...

New James Webb Space Telescope data reveal Pluto's high-altitude haze is a key driver of the climate on the dwarf planet, offering clues to Earth's ancient atmosphere. When you purchase through links ...

Since launching in 2018, the Parker Space Probe has made the closest approaches to the sun of any scientific instrument, enabling a valuable new stream of data about our host star. Up to three times a ...

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations indicate that Pluto’s atmosphere is unlike any other in the solar system, confirming a 2017 hypothesis and potentially revealing how the early Earth ...

An SwRI-led study identified particles accelerated to extremely high energies by magnetic reconnection near the Sun. As NASA’s Parker Solar Probe (trajectory shown in green) crossed the heliospheric ...

Researchers at Johns Hopkins claim to have developed a solid-state refrigeration tech that could increase efficiency by 70 percent compared to traditional thermoelectric materials. The thin-film ...

Scientists at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Maryland, have demonstrated a working capability that can radically accelerate the testing of qubits — the quantum computing ...
