Did Something Hit Saturn? Astronomers Investigate Possible Impact Flash
- Wednesday July 9, 2025
- Science | Edited by Amit Chaturvedi
Unlike rocky planets where asteroid impacts leave visible craters, gas giants like Saturn have outer layers of hydrogen and helium that can absorb impacts without obvious traces.

New Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Could Reveal Secrets of Distant Worlds
- Saturday July 12, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
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...

Scientists Say Dark Matter Could Turn Failed Stars Into ‘Dark Dwarfs’
- Friday July 11, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers suggest that brown dwarfs—dim, failed stars—could transform into “dark dwarfs” by capturing dark matter in their cores. When dark matter particles annihilate, they release heat, potentially lighting up these stars. Physicist Jeremy Sakstein and researchers like Jillian Paulin and Rebecca Leane support this idea, which could help...

Scientists Trace Universe’s Missing Ordinary Matter Using FRBs and X-rays
- Wednesday July 9, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
New astronomical breakthroughs have identified where the universe’s “missing” ordinary matter resides. Using 70 FRBs, including one from 9 billion light-years away, scientists discovered that 76% of ordinary matter exists between galaxies. A separate X-ray study observed an enormous hot gas filament connecting galaxy clusters.

Astronomers Discover 3I/ATLAS, Largest Interstellar Comet Yet Detected
- Sunday July 6, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have discovered 3I/ATLAS, the third known interstellar comet to pass through our solar system. Detected by the ATLAS telescope in Chile, it’s racing inward at 150,000 mph and will swing closest to the Sun in October. Estimated to be 10–20 kilometers across, it is likely the largest interstellar object observed so far. Signs of comet...

New Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Speeds Through Solar System
- Saturday July 5, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have identified 3I/ATLAS as the third confirmed interstellar comet, racing through the solar system at 68 km/s. Discovered on July 1, it will pass near the sun in October. Skywatchers can view this rare object live online tonight, thanks to a live stream by the Virtual Telescope Project using observatories in Italy.

Astronomers Capture First-Ever Image of a Dead Star That Exploded Twice in Rare Supernova Event
- Saturday July 5, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have captured the first-ever image of a white dwarf star undergoing a rare double-detonation supernova. Using the Very Large Telescope, the team revealed that such explosions can occur without a star reaching the Chandrasekhar limit. The findings, published in Nature Astronomy, could reshape existing theories about stellar death and imp...

A Planet with a Death Wish: How HIP 67522 b Is Forcing Its Star to Explode
- Thursday July 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA-backed astronomers have identified HIP 67522 b, a Jupiter-sized planet orbiting extremely close to its star, causing massive magnetic explosions. For the first time, a planet has been shown to trigger solar flares on its host star, highlighting a new era in exoplanet and stellar magnetic research.

Webb Telescope Spots Possible Jellyfish Galaxy 12 Billion Light-Years Away
- Thursday July 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have identified a possible jellyfish galaxy about 12 billion light-years away. Named COSMOS2020-635829, it shows tentacle-like streams of gas and stars trailing off one side—likely formed through ram pressure stripping in a dense cluster. If confirmed, it would be the most distant jellyfish galaxy ...

Radio Observations in Chamaeleon Cloud Reveal Five Young Stars, Including a Binary System
- Thursday July 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A team of astronomers using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) discovered five young stars in the Chamaeleon cloud complex. One is a probable tight binary system. These findings enhance our understanding of early stellar evolution and the structure of southern star-forming regions.

Astronomers have detected early signs of planet formation in 27 young protoplanetary disks within the Ophiuchus star-forming region, just 460 light-years away. High-resolution imaging revealed spiral and ring patterns forming earlier than expected, suggesting stars and planets may grow together from infancy. The findings bridge a knowledge gap betw...
