A Southwest Research Institute study reveals that chasing interstellar comets like 3I/ATLAS is achievable with current rockets and instruments. Such missions could collect data on comet...
NASA’s InSight mission uncovered Mars’ mantle as chaotic and fractured, resembling a Rocky Road brownie rather than a layered planet. Seismic data revealed ancient fragments, some...
Astronomers discovered Comet Lemmon (C/2025 A6) in January, and it could soon become visible to skywatchers. Passing closest to Earth on October 20, 2025, the comet...
Astronomer David Kipping has proposed TARS, a sunlight-driven space slingshot. Using reflective panels spun in space, it can fling small probes at escape speed. Though Alpha...
The first study to utilise microscopic damage on sauropod dinosaur teeth, a method known as Dental Microwear Texture Analysis (DMTA), has shed light on the feeding...
Astronomers once thought the universe’s first stars were only massive giants. New simulations and lab experiments reveal turbulence and early chemistry allowed smaller, Sun-like stars to...
The goal of SpaceX’s Starlink project is to transmit broadband internet from orbit. With the most recent launch, the network now has 28 satellites, connecting far-flung...
New research challenges the idea that 55 Cancri e, once dubbed a “diamond planet”, is rich in carbon. Re-analysing telescope data, scientists concluded that the host star has...
NASA’s Webb Telescope imaged the Lobster Nebula (NGC 6357), 5,500 light-years away. Its young star cluster, Pismis 24, contains giant stars carving glowing gas pillars. Pismis...
Astronomers have discovered that planets can survive without stars, drifting as rogue or hypervelocity worlds. Some are flung into space by black holes, while others are...
Exoplanets are planets orbiting stars outside our solar system, hidden by stellar glare and detected indirectly. Astronomers identify them by tracking star wobbles or dips in...
Scientists at Brookhaven’s RHIC have calibrated the sPHENIX detector, confirming it can track particle collisions with high precision. Now ready for full operations, sPHENIX will study...
UY Scuti, a red hypergiant about 1,700 times the Sun’s radius, is the universe’s largest known star. Nearly 5 billion suns could fit inside its volume,...
Asteroids, comets, meteoroids, meteors, and meteorites may seem similar, but each plays a unique role in the Solar System. Asteroids are rocky remnants, comets are icy...
In a historic collaboration, scientists created the first comprehensive mammalian brain activity map. The project, led by the International Brain Laboratory, analyzed data from 600,000 cells...
NASA has named Amit Kshatriya as its new Associate Administrator, a role overseeing agency operations and strategy. A 20-year NASA veteran, Kshatriya has led Artemis Moon-to-Mars...
Astronomers using LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA detected 128 collisions of black holes and neutron stars, including two rare mixed mergers that double previous records. These findings reveal new details...
Scientists at the University of Tokyo have visualized gold nanoclusters in their earliest growth stage and discovered new elongated structures called gold quantum needles. These exhibit...
In Sept. 2025, NASA and NOAA will launch three spacecraft aboard a Falcon 9 to the Sun–Earth L1 point. IMAP will map the heliosphere’s edge, the...
The James Webb Space Telescope has spotted a bizarre planet-forming disk dominated by carbon dioxide where water is almost absent. This rare finding, in star system...
