Neuralink Device Helps Monkey See Something That’s Not There
Neuralink's "Blindsight" brain implant is said to have enabled a monkey to perceive non-existent objects, a step toward aiding the blind. Engineer Joseph O'Doherty stated the device stimulated visual brain areas, prompting eye movements towards "visualised" targets two-thirds of the time. Neuralink's first public data on Blindsight, a chip mimickin...

NASA Chandra Spots Distant X-Ray Jet; Telescope Faces Major Budget Cuts
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has detected a massive X-ray jet from quasar J1610+1811, 11.6 billion light-years away. The jet travels at nearly the speed of light, illuminating black hole behavior during the universe’s early era. However, Chandra now faces potential defunding under NASA’s proposed budget. Astronomers warn that cutting Chan...

JWST Reveals Pluto’s Haze Cools Atmosphere, Paints Charon’s Poles Red
Pluto's thin haze of organic particles, confirmed by JWST’s mid-infrared observations, plays a crucial role in both cooling its mesosphere and launching methane into space. This methane escapes Pluto’s gravity, landing on Charon’s poles where radiation transforms it into reddish tholins. The study highlights how Pluto’s haze shapes not only...

Aurora Alert! Northern Lights May Be Visible as Far South as New York on June 14
A moderate G2 geomagnetic storm on June 14 could push auroras as far south as New York and Idaho, triggered by solar wind from a coronal hole. NOAA forecasts peak geomagnetic activity with a Kp index of 5.67. While increased daylight may limit visibility, skywatchers are advised to look out for northern lights during early morning hours.
