Everything we know about the formation of solar systems might be wrong, says University of Florida astronomy professor Jian Ge and his postdoc, Bo Ma. They’ve discovered the first “binary-binary” – ...

Earth and the planetary object that gave rise to the Moon were likely born in the same region of the solar system.

That’s also true for the other moons that provide the gravitational stress. As a result, the internal oceans may actually ...
