The Moon is the only place on the planet where humans have set foot. The Moon, the brightest and largest object in our night sky, makes Earth a more livable planet by dampening our planet's wobble on its axis, resulting in a relatively stable climate. It also causes tides, which have guided humans for thousands of years. The Moon was most likely formed as a result of a Mars-sized body colliding with Earth. The Moon is the fifth largest of our solar system's 200+ moons orbiting planets. Because no one knew there were other moons until Galileo Galilei discovered four moons orbiting Jupiter in 1610, Earth's only natural satellite is simply referred to as "the Moon."

Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun and the solar system's second-largest planet. It's the farthest planet from Earth visible to the naked eye, but its most notable features — its rings — are best seen through a telescope. Although the other gas giants in the solar system, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune, all have rings, Saturn's rings stand out the most, earning it the moniker "Ringed Planet."

Neptune, along with its cousin Uranus, is our solar system's least-explored planet, having only been visited by a spacecraft once. Despite this, we've discovered more Neptune-sized planets orbiting other stars than any other type of planet. To understand other solar systems and determine whether ours is unique, we must first learn more about the windy blue world in our own backyard.It's unclear where Neptune came from or how it got its water. The disc of dust and gas that formed...

Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system, named after the Roman mythological king of the gods. The gas colossus Jupiter is a stormy enigma, wrapped in colourful clouds whipped by powerful winds that sweep beneath rings and moons. Jupiter is massive: it has more than twice the mass of all the other planets in the solar system combined. The Great Red Spot, its largest and most famous storm, is twice the width of the Earth. Jupiter's four large moons, Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto, helped to revolutionise the way we saw the universe — and our place in it — in 1610, when Galileo discovered them. These were the first observations of celestial bodies circling an object other than Earth, and they supported the Copernican theory that Earth was not the centre of the universe.

A black hole is a region of space where gravity is so strong that even light cannot escape. Because matter has been compressed into a small space, gravity is extremely strong. This can occur when a star dies. People cannot see black holes because no light can escape. They are unnoticed. Space telescopes equipped with specialised tools can aid in the discovery of black holes. Special tools can observe how stars in close proximity to black holes behave differently than...
