Using 35 years of satellite data, researchers observed a consistent pattern for ice cloud formation stemming from desert dust in the atmosphere. The way clouds freeze is vital piece of the puzzle for ...

Marine bacteria carried by warm and moisture-laden atmospheric rivers contribute to the formation of ice clouds at unexpectedly high temperatures in high-latitude regions, research from Japan suggests ...

Gas cloud collisions during galaxy mergers compress interstellar material, triggering new star formation, as observed in interacting systems studied by NASA and reported by Universe Today.

This experiment demonstrates how clouds form in our atmosphere through the interaction of warm and cold air. You'll create a miniature version of this natural process ...

Across the observable universe, galaxies appear as luminous islands of stars and gas, anchored by invisible frameworks of ...

Astronomers have identified Cloud 9, a nearby dark matter halo filled with gas but no stars. The discovery supports key predictions about how galaxies form and why some never do.
