Spiral Structure Discovered in Oort Cloud Challenges Existing Models
A spiral structure has been unexpectedly discovered within the Oort Cloud, challenging the long-held belief of its spherical shape; this discovery, made during a planetarium show's preproduction, is based on simulations that show the galactic tide twisting the orbits of icy bodies in the inner Oort ...

Comet Water May Resemble Earth's Oceans, Suggesting a Crucial Role in Delivering Water to Early Earth
A NASA-led study examining comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko suggests its water may resemble Earth's oceans, supporting the theory that Jupiter-family comets contributed significantly to Earth's water supply, challenging earlier research and suggesting implications for the search for extraterrestrial ...

China Launches Tianwen-2 Mission to Uncharted Solar System Objects
China's Tianwen-2 mission launched on July 24, 2024, to study asteroid Kamoʻoalewa, possibly a piece of the moon, and the main belt comet 311P/Pan-STARRS, both never before visited by spacecraft. The mission aims to collect Kamoʻoalewa samples, returning them to Earth in about 2.5 years, and perform...

Discovery of Seven New Dark Comets Could Rewrite Theories of Earth's Water Origin
Astronomers have discovered seven new dark comets, doubling the known number to 14, and revealing two distinct populations with different origins and sizes; this finding could significantly impact our understanding of how water may have been delivered to Earth.
