Astronomers Discover Teleios, A Supernova Remnant with Perfect Symmetry
- Saturday May 17, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A newly discovered supernova remnant named “Teleios,” meaning “perfect” in Greek, is astonishing scientists with its rare circular symmetry. Detected using data from ASKAP’s Evolutionary Map of the Universe, Teleios (G305.4–2.2) could be located 7,170 or 25,100 light years away. With a steep spectral index and low surface brightness, it...

Hubble Captures First-Ever Rogue Black Hole Devouring a Star Outside Galactic Core
- Thursday May 15, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers led by Dr. Yuhan Yao have discovered the first offset tidal disruption event (TDE), where a rogue black hole outside a galaxy's core ripped apart a star. Spotted by the Hubble telescope and Zwicky Transient Facility, this marks historic evidence of a wandering supermassive black hole in action.

NASA Telescopes Reveal Hidden Properties of X-Ray Pulsar RX J0032.9-7348
- Monday May 12, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A joint study using NASA’s NuSTAR and NICER telescopes has shed new light on RX J0032.9-7348, an X-ray pulsar in the Small Magellanic Cloud first identified 30 years ago. The pulsar exhibited a 7.02-second pulse period and underwent a significant X-ray brightening event in October 2024. Researchers noted a double-peaked pulse profile and measured...

Astronomers Discover Closest Known Molecular Cloud to Earth
- Saturday May 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have discovered Eos, a massive, crescent-shaped molecular cloud only 300 light-years from Earth, making it the closest known cloud of its kind. Unlike most molecular clouds, Eos contains little carbon monoxide, which is typically used to detect such formations. Instead, it was found by tracking the faint glow of hydrogen. Shaped by cosm...

Super Earths are Quite Common Outside the Solar System, New Study Reveals
- Saturday April 26, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Using the microlensing technique, KMTNet studied the exoplanet, which is twice as big as Earth, yet smaller than Neptune. It is believed that there are more such super-Earths outside our solar system. It is common to have such planets orbiting their stars.

Magnetic Fields Could Significantly Influence Oscillations in Merging Neutron Stars, Study Finds
- Saturday April 26, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Magnetic fields may play a bigger role in neutron star mergers than previously thought. A new study using advanced simulations shows that these fields can shift or suppress oscillation frequencies, altering gravitational wave signatures. This discovery could change how astronomers decode post-merger signals and refine models of neutron star interio...

Astronomers Discover Potential ‘Dark Galaxy’ Near the Milky Way
- Monday April 21, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have spotted a massive hydrogen cloud near the Milky Way that may be a rare dark galaxy—an object composed of gas and dark matter but lacking stars and light. Detected through radio telescopes, the galaxy-like structure challenges conventional astronomy and could reveal hidden phases of galaxy formation and dark matter interaction in ...

In the Sagittarius constellation, a lone and first-ever solitary black hole has been discovered by a team of scientists. Although the discovery began in the year 2011, the observations have confirmed it recently. The size of this black hole is as massive as seven times of the sun. Despite the conflicts and differences of observations by another tea...
