Canadian Astrophotographer Captures Stunning Sunflower Galaxy from Ontario
- Tuesday May 20, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff, Edited by Rohan Pal
Astrophotographer Ronald Brecher has captured a magnificent image of Messier 63, famously known as the Sunflower Galaxy, from his backyard observatory in Guelph, Ontario. With over 13 hours of exposures taken using a Celestron 14" EDGE HD telescope and advanced imaging filters, the spiral galaxy’s fragmented arms and bright core are revealed in s...

New Study Sets Stronger Mass Limit on Ultralight Bosonic Dark Matter
- Monday May 19, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A groundbreaking study has set a new lower bound on the mass of ultralight bosonic dark matter particles—2.2 × 10⁻²¹ eV. Using stellar motion data from the dwarf galaxy Leo II and advanced computational models, the team ruled out lighter masses that cannot form observed structures. This challenges the popular fuzzy dark matter theory and pav...

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...

Russian Researchers Discover 11 New Active Galactic Nuclei In Spektr-RG X-ray Survey
- Saturday May 17, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
In a significant step for extragalactic astronomy, researchers from the Russian Academy of Sciences have identified 11 new active galactic nuclei (AGNs) through the ART-XC telescope aboard the Spektr-RG space observatory. These AGNs, classified as Seyfert galaxies, span redshifts from 0.028 to 0.258 and display X-ray luminosities typical for the pr...

Sun Unleash a 600,000-Mile Filament in Fiery Eruption
- Monday May 19, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A spectacular 600,000-mile-long solar filament erupted off the sun’s surface in a fiery blast captured on video. While the resulting CME will miss Earth, experts are watching closely as solar activity ramps up toward Solar Cycle 25’s peak. The event underscores the sun’s ongoing volatility and potential for more powerful outbursts ahead.

NASA's New Satellite Duo Begins Tracking Mysterious Auroral Electrojets
- Thursday May 1, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The EZIE mission is shaping up to be a breakthrough in space weather research. Launched in March 2025, its three satellites are now orbiting Earth and collecting data on auroral electrojets, massive energy currents near the poles. Scientists believe the results could lead to better forecasting tools and stronger, safer satellite systems.

Hydrogen Gas Cloud Might Help Solve the Mystery of Missing Non-Dark Matter of the Universe
- Saturday April 19, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Ionized Hydrogen gas cloud is believed to have the missing matter of the universe, said scientists. This discovery, conducted by DESI, changed the perspective of black hole theory and is believed to switch on and off at its duty cycle. The scientists will further use new measurements in the existing models of the Universe.
