Amazing scientific discoveries aren't always made by renowned scientists! Here's a few examples of times ordinary people unlocked some incredible discoveries! Let's' check it out!

Dark Energy is what we call the mysterious force that seems to be pushing the universe apart. By some calculations, it makes up 70% of everything in nature. Or...maybe it doesn’t exist at all! Plus, Juno’s observations give us new...

Scientists have conclusively imaged a circumplanetary disk around a distant exoplanet, and Jupiter's auroras claim the spotlight with their unique Birkeland currents.

The sun shapes the solar system in many ways, including through its mysterious solar wind, which was thought to be pushed through the force of the sun’s electric field. Recent observations revealed, though, that that hypothesis may not...

Astronomers have finally observed what causes pulsating auroras, and our estimates of the mass of the Andromeda Galaxy have shrunk.

From what we know about Titan, it seems like its atmosphere should have disappeared millions of years ago. So, why hasn’t it?

SciShow tackles a Quick Question with a longish answer: What causes auroras? TL;DR: It's a breathtaking display of particle physics in action.

Space Clue: 203 Pompeja and 269 Justitia in the asteroid belt with evidence of being formed outside of it. But the real mystery is how they got there! And we again return to Ganymede with new evidence suggesting even more kinds of water...

A glowing, purple ribbon of light named STEVE is weirder than we thought and we now have evidence that there is water ice on the moon!

Which is a bigger deal to you? The discovery that there's probably more water on Jupiter's moon Ganymede than all the oceans on Earth? Or the fact that you can now help NASA find asteroids? Learn about both, then decide for yourself!

A new telescope, the DKIST, has given us our most direct look at the Sun ever, in the highest resolution yet. And a paper published last week has revealed how “the dunes” auroras may be more than just a new spectacle in the night sky.

The auroras are one of earth's most dazzling displays, but thanks to Joan Feynman we know that they're so much more.

NASA’s Juno spacecraft is a trooper as it continues its 2-year-long mission.

Earth’s northern and southern lights are some of the most magical sights on our planet. But they’re not unique to Earth, and aside from being beautiful, auroras can also give us unusual insights into these other worlds.

The Northern lights along with some quick flashes of Perseid meteors are seen in these time-lapses captured on the outskirts of Harrogate, North Yorkshire, UK and Sistersville, West Virginia, USA.

The longer slower lines are...
