Scientists are exploring the origin of life's ingredients on our planet. A recent study suggests that essential volatile compounds, such as hydrogen and carbon, may have come from a cataclysmic impact ...
What seemed like new planets around Fomalhaut were actually expanding dust clouds from violent planetary collisions seen by Hubble.
What was originally thought to be a planet orbiting the Fomalhaut star was probably just the fallout of a wild collision.
