For the first time in more than 10 years, it will be possible to see all five bright planets together in the sky.

In this special feature, we have invited top astronomers to handpick the Hubble Space Telescope image that has the most scientific relevance to them.

A couple of weeks ago, we were treated to a total lunar eclipse – and on Thursday afternoon, North America will see a partial solar eclipse.

How many stars can you see at night? Right now people all over the world are being asked to go out and count them!

A beautiful full moon is set to rise this Sunday night, August 10. It will be spectacular and I encourage everyone to go outside and have a look. But the question is: will it be a supermoon?

A bright meteor lit up the sky across Australia on the night of July 10, grabbing the attention of anyone who happened to be outdoors.

Magnetars are stars that are incredibly dense, rapidly spinning, amazingly hot and the most magnetic objects known in the universe.

If you’re willing to rise early tomorrow morning then there’s the chance to see a meteor shower, known as the Lyrids, which may been responsible for a bright light seen recently over Russia.

In a surprise discovery two rings have been found around the remote asteroid Chariklo, which lies more than a billion kilometres from Earth.
