A team of astronomers has discovered new details of one of the strangest cosmic structures in the universe. So strange that they are literally referred to as “Odd Radio Circles” (ORC). These colossal phenomena may have diameters of a million light years — nearly ten times larger than our galaxy — and are still unexplained. […]

If we send a crewed spaceship to Mars right now and it lands in a large canyon and starts exploring, they’ll find a massive deposit of water. The ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) mission discovered “large volumes of water” in the red planet’s Valles Marineris canyon system. The European Space Agency and the Russian space […]

According to a research paper published in Nature, astronomers detected a “really weird” object 4,000 lightyears distant from Earth. Every other minute, the object vanishes from view and produces a massive burst of radio waves three times an hour. Tyrone O’Doherty, a Curtin University student, first noticed the enigmatic object while scanning the sky in […]

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured its first ‘in focus’ shot of a single star, and it is so good that the observatory may be able to exceed its research goals. When the telescope begins science operations in the coming months, this will enable considerably more precise views of stars, planets, and galaxies. Webb […]

We are facing an anomaly over South Atlantic, researchers are calling it South Atlantic Anomaly. It is a region of the Earth’s magnetic field that has shifted so much that satellites get disrupted when they fly through it. The researchers provided information acquired from southern Africa in a research paper, which was published in February, […]

Juno flew by Jupiter skimming 2,700 miles (4,400 kilometers) above Jupiter’s cloud tops while traveling about 129,000 mph (208,000 km/h) relative to the planet, NASA officials said. Hold my coffee, I can’t stop staring at the images. Is that even real? NASA’s Juno spacecraft is the first solar-powered space probe sent out to study our […]

Recently, scientists were able to “warp” time on the smallest scale ever. Time may be warped in the presence of high gravitational fields/high speeds, according to Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity. This is referred to as time dilation. Clocks also tick differently based on gravity in various situations. With the aid of the most […]

Black holes are often considered to be enormous, aggressive, and very destructive entities. However, according to recent research, they are just as capable of producing stars as they are of consuming them. Astronomers have reached this conclusion after observing a black hole 30 million light-years distant produce stars in the dwarf starburst galaxy known as […]

Collisions in the huge disc-shaped cloud of material that also generated the Sun are believed to have formed the Earth some 4.6 billion years ago. Gravity gradually clumped this gas and dust into clumps that produced asteroids and tiny early planets known as planetesimals. These particles collided repeatedly and grew in size, eventually forming the […]

Ryan Chester from North Royalton in Ohio submitted his video for the Breakthrough Junior Challenge (BTJC), which offers students aged thirteen to eighteen (13-18) to share their curiosity and interest in math and science with the entire world. The competition got over 2,000 proposals from 86 different parts of the world. After being pointed down […]
