The gas giant WASP-18b belongs to a class known as ultra-hot Jupiters — giant, searing, gaseous planets that orbit perilously close to their stars. Researchers used a new technique called ...

NASA's IMAP mission and two other space weather probes took flight atop a Falcon 9 rocket today (Sept. 24). SpaceX just sent three space weather probes to the final frontier. A Falcon 9 rocket lifted ...
