New observations from ESA’s Solar Orbiter show that solar flares can be triggered by cascading magnetic disturbances. During a close solar pass, the spacecraft...
NASA has resumed efforts to reestablish contact with the MAVEN spacecraft after Mars emerged from solar conjunction. Engineers are using the Deep Space Network...
Astronomers have created the sharpest map yet of dark matter using deep observations from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. By analysing the gravitational distortion...
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has released an expanded source catalogue spanning 22 years of observations, covering around 400,000 cosmic X-ray sources. The dataset captures...
Scientists have solved a 66-million-year climate mystery, explaining how Earth cooled from a tropical greenhouse to an ice-capped world. New research reveals ocean calcium...
Some physicists argue our universe may be just one bubble in a much larger multiverse. Inflation theory suggests countless universes can form, each with...
Scientists analyzing lunar samples from China’s Chang’e-6 mission have uncovered evidence of a colossal ancient asteroid impact. Elevated levels of heavy potassium isotopes suggest...
NASA’s TESS mission is revolutionising the search for exoplanets with the help of artificial intelligence. Using deep-learning tools such as ExoMiner++, scientists can rapidly...
Astronomers may have solved how supermassive black holes formed so soon after the Big Bang. New simulations show that gas-rich, turbulent early galaxies allowed...
NASA engineers have tested a new laminar-flow wing concept at the Armstrong Flight Research Center by mounting a scaled CATNLF model beneath an F-15B...
NASA’s Artemis II mission will carry historic artefacts into lunar orbit in 2026, marking the first crewed Artemis flight and the 250th anniversary of...
Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have uncovered new clues to the mystery of blue straggler stars—unusually hot, bright stars found in ancient globular...
Physicists at the University of Warwick have developed a new framework to detect tiny spacetime fluctuations known as “quantum foam,” a long-standing prediction of...
Although Jupiter and Saturn are similar gas giants, their polar weather patterns are strikingly different. Saturn hosts a single, massive hexagonal storm at its...
NASA has selected three new lunar science instruments to fly to the Moon under the Artemis program through its Commercial Lunar Payload Services initiative....
NASA astronaut Sunita “Suni” Williams will retire in December 2025 after nearly three decades of service. A veteran of three space missions, she logged...
