Biggest Space Discoveries in 2025: From New Comets and Black Holes to Sign of Life on Mars
- Monday December 29, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The year 2025 proved extraordinary for astronomy, delivering discoveries that stretched from our cosmic backyard to distant galaxies. Scientists tracked Comet 3I/ATLAS, only the third known interstellar object, while nearby stars like Barnard’s Star and Alpha Centauri revealed new planetary companions. On Mars, strange “leopard spots” raised ...

NASA Spots Starquakes in a Red Giant Orbiting One of the Galaxy’s Quietest Black Holes
- Sunday December 28, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A red giant star orbiting a quiet black hole spins faster than expected, while internal vibrations reveal it is younger than its ancient chemistry suggests. These findings hint at a past stellar merger and challenge existing models of star evolution in low-metal environments. Future observations aim to confirm its complex cosmic history.

Hubble Captures Gas Escaping Sideways Spiral Galaxy NGC 4388 in Virgo Cluster
- Sunday December 21, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Hubble has captured a glowing plume of gas escaping the spiral galaxy NGC 4388 in the Virgo cluster. Moving through hot intracluster gas, the galaxy sheds material, partially energised by its central black hole. Multi-wavelength observations reveal the impact of both environmental forces and central activity on galaxy evolution.

Astronomers Observe Black Hole Twisting Spacetime for the First Time, Confirming Einstein’s Theory
- Friday December 19, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have directly observed a black hole twisting spacetime for the first time, confirming Einstein’s long-standing prediction. The effect was detected during a violent stellar destruction event, where repeating X-ray and radio signals revealed a slow cosmic wobble. The discovery provides new insight into black hole spin, jets, and extreme...

James Webb Confirms First Runaway Supermassive Black Hole Rocking Through Space
- Thursday December 18, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The James Webb Space Telescope has confirmed the first runaway supermassive black hole, moving at 2.2 million mph through the Cosmic Owl galaxies. Pushing a galaxy-sized shockwave and leaving a long trail of star-forming gas, this discovery confirms long-standing theories about black hole ejections and opens the door to finding more cosmic speedste...

NASA's IXPE Solves Long-Standing Mystery Behind Black Hole Jets
- Thursday December 18, 2025
- Science | Edited by Nikhil Pandey
NASA's IXPE mission has identified how X-rays are produced in the jet of a supermassive black hole, confirming that they originate from the same jet through synchrotron self-Compton scattering and resolving a long-standing question in X-ray astronomy

Chandra’s New X-Ray Mapping Exposes the Invisible Engines Powering Galaxy Clusters
- Friday December 12, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has released stunning colour-coded galaxy cluster images that reveal shock waves, cooling gas, and cavities carved by supermassive black holes. By separating X-ray light into different energy bands, astronomers can now visualise hidden cosmic processes that shape the universe’s largest structures and control how...

Galaxy Collisions Found to Activate Supermassive Black Holes, Euclid Data Shows
- Friday December 12, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers using ESA’s Euclid telescope and AI analysis have found that merging galaxies are significantly more likely to host active supermassive black holes. The gravitational chaos of a collision drives gas toward the galactic core, igniting AGN activity. This discovery strengthens the link between galaxy interactions and the energetic proces...

Astronomers Observe Star’s Wobbling Orbit, Confirming Einstein’s Frame-Dragging
- Friday December 12, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have detected a remarkable wobble in the orbit of a star being torn apart by a black hole, offering one of the clearest confirmations yet of Einstein’s frame-dragging effect. By tracking repeating X-ray and radio signals every 20 days, researchers captured spacetime twisting around a rapidly spinning black hole—revealing powerful in...

Astronomers Spot the Longest Gamma-Ray Burst Ever Seen: What You Need to Know
- Wednesday December 10, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A powerful gamma-ray burst detected in July 2025 has stunned astronomers by lasting nearly seven hours, making it the longest GRB ever recorded. Named GRB 250702B, the event produced repeated pulses and unusual afterglows, raising theories about rare “middleweight” black holes tearing apart stars in deep space.

ESA Telescopes Capture Ultra-Fast Winds Blasting From Distant Supermassive Black Hole
- Thursday December 11, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have witnessed an extraordinary black hole outburst in the galaxy NGC 3783, where material was blasted into space at nearly 20% the speed of light. Triggered by an intense X-ray flare, the ultra-fast winds reveal how supermassive black holes can violently shape their surroundings and influence the evolution of entire galaxies.
