After more than three decades of trailblazing discoveries, NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has done it again. Combining fresh ...

The powerful vision of NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has allowed astronomers to study for the first time the layer-cake structure of the atmosphere of a planet orbiting another star. Hubble discovered ...

NASA’s Carruthers Geocorona Observatory, a groundbreaking mission, is set to provide new insights into the outermost layer of Earth’s atmosphere, the exosphere. The mission will capture detailed ...

A project led by the University of Washington to better understand our atmosphere's complexity is a finalist for NASA's next generation of Earth-observing satellites. STRIVE seeks to better understand ...

NASA's Atmospheric Waves Experiment (AWE) discovered an unknown phenomenon from the International Space Station, 55 miles above Earth.

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has detected a stratosphere, one of the primary layers of Earth’s atmosphere, on a massive and blazing-hot exoplanet known as WASP-33b. The presence of a stratosphere can ...

NASA’s Carruthers mission will film Earth’s elusive exosphere to understand space weather, atmospheric escape, and planetary habitability. A NASA mission aims to photograph a feature of Earth that is ...

Using data from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have detected clouds made up of silicate, or sand, in the atmosphere of a nearby exoplanet, or planet outside our solar system. WASP-107b ...

Mars at sunset reveals dozens of razor-thin atmospheric layers in stunning detail, helping scientists map dust and ice patterns.

STRIVE proposes to launch a satellite that takes a sideways view of Earth’s atmosphere, at what is sometimes called “Earth’s limb.” This photo of Earth’s limb was taken Feb. 12, 2020, from the ...
