Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Shows Wobbling Jets in Rare Sun-Facing Tail, Surprising Astronomers
Astronomers have detected strange wobbling jets in the rare sun-facing tail of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS. Observed as the comet neared the Sun, the shifting jets reveal new details about how material escapes from comets formed around other stars, offering rare insight into alien planetary systems.

Newly Found ‘Super-Earth’ GJ 251 c Could Be One of the Most Promising Worlds for Alien Life
A new super-Earth, GJ 251 c, has been found orbiting a nearby red dwarf star within its habitable zone. About four times Earth’s mass, it may host liquid water. Detected via the radial-velocity method using Penn State’s Habitable Zone Planet Finder, it’s a prime target in the search for life.

Kepler and TESS Discoveries Help Astronomers Confirm Over 6,000 Exoplanets Orbiting Other Stars
More than 6,000 exoplanets (planets orbiting other stars), one of the most rapidly expanding frontiers in science, have now been confirmed by astronomers. Their search of other worlds has been transformed within a span of thirty years, which started as a form of speculation, to accurate detection. However, in the midst of this wave of discoveries, ...

"He Alienated Me": Robin Uthappa Reveals How Teammate Ruined His Relationship With India Star
Robin Uthappa explained that he gave a generic statement during an interview and the Karnataka teammate informed the India start that it was targeted at him.

Scientists Explore Role of Space Radiation in Powering Alien Microbial Life
A new study proposes that life may exist far from sunlight in a “radiolytic habitable zone” deep beneath the icy surfaces of Mars, Europa, and Enceladus. Cosmic rays, which can penetrate rock and ice, break water molecules apart to release hydrogen, oxygen, and energy-rich electrons. These can fuel microbes in subsurface water, much like bacter...

Gemini North Telescope Spots Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Racing Through Solar System
Gemini North has imaged 3I/ATLAS, the third interstellar object to enter our solar system. Larger than its predecessors and possibly older than our solar system, the comet will pass closest to the Sun on Oct. 30 before returning to deep space. Scientists worldwide are racing to gather data during its brief visit.

New Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Could Reveal Secrets of Distant Worlds
Astronomers have confirmed the arrival of 3I/ATLAS, only the third interstellar object ever spotted in our solar system. First seen on July 1, 2025, by the ATLAS survey team in Chile, it was quickly identified by its unusual hyperbolic orbit and comet-like tail. Larger and brighter than either 1I/ʻOumuamua or 2I/Borisov, 3I/ATLAS is estimated to b...

Trillions of Comets Found in 74 Alien Star Systems, Unveiling Exocomets and Planetary Belts
A discovery of trillions of comets in 74 star systems has opened new doors for understanding the role of exocomets in planetary water sources. The planetesimal belts, detected using ALMA and SMA telescopes, offer crucial insights into the evolution of planetary systems and the potential for life-supporting water on distant planets. This research pa...

This Alien Planet Has Astronomers Puzzled. Defies Current Understanding Of Physics
Astronomers have spotted orbiting around a young star a newborn planet that took only 3 million years to form - quite swift in cosmic terms - in a discovery that challenges the current understanding of the speed of planetary formation.
