Earth has four seasons - spring, summer, fall, and winter. Other planets can experience seasons, too, but they might be wildly different from the ones that we are used to. Find out about how seasons work and what role the Sun plays in causing them.

Jupiter and Saturn may seem similar as gas giants, yet their vastly different moon systems reveal a deeper story shaped by magnetic forces and planetary evolution. Jupiter and Saturn, the two largest planets in our Solar System, also host the most extensive systems of moons. Jupiter is currently known to have more than 100 moons, [...]
Saturn’s magnetic shield behaves in a way that defies Earth-based expectations. Scientists analyzing data from the Cassini-Huygens mission have identified an unexpected feature in Saturn’s magnetic shield. According to the team, the finding shows that giant planets follow a different set of rules than Earth when it comes to how their magnetospheres behave. The study, [...]
Saturn’s aurora acts as a localized energy source that drives winds and currents in a stable feedback system, producing the illusion of changing rotation. Researchers at Northumbria University have turned to the most advanced space telescope ever constructed to tackle a long-standing mystery in planetary science: why Saturn seems to rotate at different speeds depending [...]

Viewing Saturn in complementary wavelengths, the James Webb and Hubble space telescopes reveal more about what makes up the layers of ringed planet's atmosphere.
New simulations suggest Saturn's rings formed from a shattered moon called Chrysalis, offering clues to the planet's tilt and surprisingly young rings.
Observations from the James Webb and Hubble space telescopes reveal Saturn's atmosphere and rings in the most detailed view created to date.
Saturn’s icy rings glow in this infrared view from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope released on March 25, 2026. Combining this image with another that NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope captured – also released on the same day – provides scientists with a richer, more layered understanding of the gas giant’s atmosphere. In Webb’s infrared image, […]
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and Hubble Space Telescope have teamed up to capture new views of Saturn, revealing the planet in strikingly different ways. Observing in complementary wavelengths of light, the two space observatories provide scientists with a richer, more layered understanding of the gas giant’s atmosphere. Both sense sunlight reflected from Saturn’s banded […]

Astronomers have found four new moons orbiting Jupiter and 11 new moons around Saturn.
It looks like the cosmos will be having its own parade for Mardi Gras this year, with a six-planet alignment joining our annual festivities. That’s right, gay Christmas has gone ...

In late February, people in the Northern Hemisphere can look up for a special sight : Six planets will all be visible from clear and dark night skies. New sonifications from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory released [day of week] will help commemorate this latest “planetary parade.” Because the planets in our solar system travel around […]
A new study hints that Saturn's largest moon, Titan, was created around 400 million years ago, when two massive moons smashed into each other. This hypothesis could also help to solve several other mysteries surrounding other moons and the planet's iconic rings.
Saturn’s rings and its largest moon, Titan, may share a surprisingly violent origin. Saturn’s rings look timeless through a backyard telescope, but multiple lines of evidence suggest they may be relatively recent arrivals in the Solar System. That surprising idea has pushed scientists to look for a “missing chapter” in Saturn’s moon history. One of [...]
A massive upheaval in the Saturnian system could have also led to the moon Hyperion.
