In July 2025, scientists spotted a comet speeding into our solar system from the galaxy beyond. Researchers from CU Boulder have gotten an unprecedented opportunity to capture images of this interstellar visitor.

A new study takes a close look at TRAPPIST-1, a little star roughly 40 light-years from our sun that hosts seven Earth-sized planets.

Roughly 4.5 million years ago, two stars known as Epsilon and Beta Canis Majoris flew past Earth's sun at a distance of about 30 to 35 light-years. In the process, they altered the chemistry of what scientists call the "local interstellar clouds."

Engineers at CU Boulder are developing new sensors that could one day help save farmers money, while reducing the environmental toll of agriculture.

Pikas, which often greet hikers in the Rocky Mountains with loud squeaks, have long been a favorite of visitors to Colorado. A new study suggests that warming temperatures may already be taking a toll on these little animals.

People in Colorado and across the United States saw glowing skies this week as a powerful solar storm shook Earth's atmosphere.
