There is a massive ball of hot gas billions of light-years distant that is brighter than hundreds of billions of suns. It’s difficult to envision anything so bright. So, what exactly is it? Astronomers aren’t sure, but...
Tara Sharifi, a student at Aylesbury High School, recently took the Mensa IQ test in Oxford where she scored well above the “genius benchmark” of 140. The 11-year-old student scored 162 points on the test, which is two points ahead...
American scientists from the University of Pennsylvania have recorded traces of the former northern ocean on Mars. Their research paper is published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets. New topographic maps of the planet...
The impact crater is believed to have beeп caυsed by a massive asteroid measυriпg aroυпd 400 meters iп width. Cυrioυsly, scieпtists say it collided with oυr plaпet 66 millioп years ago – aroυпd the same time as the...
Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity has passed another test. Researchers have discovered a slight adjustment in the orbit of the nearest known star to the supermassive black hole at the heart of the Milky Way after almost...
A single black hole emits no light, yet its gravity alters the course of light passing through it. Ute Kraus, Institute of Physics, Universität Hildesheim (background Milky Way panorama: Axel Mellinger). As a big star collapses under...
An asteroid, dubbed 2023 BU, is set to pass over the southern tip of South America just after midnight GMT on January 26, 2023. The space rock is about the size of a minibus and might approach as close to the Earth as 3,600km (2,200...
A monster asteroid, possibly the largest seen in eight years, has been discovered by astronomers, and it poses a significant potential hazard. Gazing into the twilight sky, astronomers found three near-Earth asteroids previously...
For years, scientists have argued about whether or not Planet Nine exists, but now NASA says that it does. The space agency points out five different pieces of evidence that show the mysterious world is real and says that pretending...
Although it may look frightening and suspicious, like a UFO, the explanation for this intriguing blue spiral in the sky, is actually much more straightforward. The dazzling scene, which was observed by many in Hawaii’s sky and...
Scientists have seen some of the oldest material in the universe. According to a new, yet-to-be-peer-reviewed study, researchers found an unidentified object nearly 13.5 billion light years away. That’s almost the age of the universe...
A comet last seen by the Neanderthals is approaching Earth and could be seen by the naked eye sometime at the end of January and the beginning of February 2023. The comet, dubbed “C/2022 E3 (ZTF)” was discovered by astronomers...
Two Earth-like planets have been discovered by astronomers in the habitable zone of their planetary system less than sixteen light-years away from Earth. A solar system’s habitable zone is the small area around a star, where liquid...

Since 2003, the black hole at the center of the Perseus galaxy cluster has been associated with sound. This is because astronomers discovered that pressure waves sent out by the black hole caused ripples in the cluster’s hot gas...
Ancient bacteria might be sleeping beneath the surface of Mars, where it has been shielded from the harsh radiation of space for millions of years, according to new research. Researchers simulated conditions on Mars in a lab to see...
city of Tell el-Hammam was unexpectedly abandoned, and more than 100 neighboring settlements suffered a similar fate. They remained uninhabited for the next 300-600 years. While investigating the Tell el-Hammam monument, archaeologists...
During the time you read this article, something will happen in the sky that many scientists didn’t believe would happen until recently. NASA says that a magnetic doorway will open that will connect the Earth and the Sun, which are...
It is a well-known fact that satellites in near orbit above Earth are susceptible to the residual atmosphere’s drag, which progressively slows the spacecraft and finally causes them to fall down to Earth and burn up in the atmosphere. According...
After the 28-June launch of the spacecraft atop a Rocket Lab Electron rocket, everything was going smoothly for NASA’s Capstone mission to lunar orbit. Monday saw the successful deployment of the probe from a Photon...
