Astronomers have identified ten new and intriguing neutron stars, known as pulsars, near the Milky Way’s core. Located in the dense globular cluster Terzan 5, which is 18,000 light-years away, … Read More
While modern spacecraft can fly autonomously, manual control is essential during emergencies. Regardless of a spacecraft’s reliability, astronauts must master manual operations like steering, docking, and de-orbiting. As part of … Read More
Using data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory, and ESA’s XMM-Newton, researchers have gained new insights into how and when a supermassive black hole consumes material. Their … Read More
Astronomers are closely monitoring Eta Carinae, a hypergiant star with a mass about 100 times that of the Sun, as it approaches a likely explosion. Despite its unstable history, predicting … Read More
A massive solar storm struck Earth on Monday, causing disruptions in communications, satellite operations, and putting stress on power grids. While this storm brings an impressive display of the aurora … Read More
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has uncovered new clues about the sun’s puzzling outer atmosphere, known as the corona, which is mysteriously hotter than the sun’s surface. Scientists have long debated … Read More
NASA has announced the discovery of six new exoplanets, bringing the total number of confirmed planets beyond our Solar System to an impressive 5,502. This achievement marks a major milestone … Read More
The European Space Agency’s (ESA) Gaia mission, initially launched for star surveying, has made a remarkable leap in asteroid exploration. Gaia has identified potential moons orbiting over 350 asteroids that … Read More
The elusive Higgs boson holds the potential to destabilize the laws of physics as we know them, yet it hasn’t. This raises profound questions about the universe’s nature. Despite the … Read More
A new study published on arXiv suggests that detecting advanced alien civilizations might be highly unlikely due to a “fine-tuning problem” related to their birth-to-death ratio. The study indicates that … Read More
