Something incredible is happening out near Jupiter right now...

Moons like the one depicted in the film Avatar may be among the most common places to find alien life, scientists believe.

The US space agency plans to send a nuclear-powered spacecraft to determine whether three of Jupiter’s icy, planet-sized moons have the potential to harbour life.

A SUICIDE plunge into Jupiter’s crushing atmosphere has ended the eight-year work of a spacecraft that transmitted information and pictures about the planet.

The planet Jupiter is set for a spectacular light show that will make it so bright it could be mistaken for an aircraft.
