Plus NOAA's GOES-19 satellite spies the lunar disk crossing the face of our parent star.

Humans haven’t been back to the moon since the Apollo moons program ended over five decade ago. The reasons why go beyond science, according to experts.

A new study hints that Saturn's largest moon, Titan, was created around 400 million years ago, when two massive moons smashed into each other. This hypothesis could also help to solve several other mysteries surrounding other moons and the planet's iconic rings.

Low, winding ridges run across the Moon’s dark plains like faint seams in cooled wax. They are easy to miss in a wide photo.
