In a groundbreaking discovery, NASA's Pleiades supercomputer has revealed an unexpected spiral structure within the inner ...

Even the little-understood Oort Cloud, at the outer edges of our solar system beyond view, has a partly spiral structure.

"We found that some comets in the inner Oort cloud form a long-lasting spiral structure." Spirals are a repeating theme in ...

The study of the universe is a subject that never ceases to amaze the scientific community. If being able to know what is beyond our atmosphere has been something that has always b ...

However, when they ran the numbers through the NASA’s Pleiades supercomputer, it came back with a mysterious structure for the inner part of the cloud that looked incredibly similar to the ...

When the scientists ran this model through NASA's Pleiades supercomputer, it spit out a structure for the inner part of the cloud (the most densely populated region, located 1,000 to 10,000 AU ...

For the yet-to-be peer-reviewed study, scientists used NASA's Pleiades supercomputer to model the structure of the Oort cloud based on the trajectories of comets as well as the gravitational ...

NASA's Pleiades supercomputer simulations suggest the spiral shape is influenced by the Milky Way's gravity. This discovery could redefine our understanding of the solar system's boundaries and ...

The Oort Cloud begins roughly 2,000 – 5,000 astronomical units (AU) from the Sun, with 1 AU being the average distance between Earth and the Sun.

NASA from time to time ... Surrounded by vast clouds of dust, the Seven Sisters, also known as the Pleiades, form a stunning star cluster located 445 light-years away in the constellation Taurus.
