NASA Hubble Space Telescope Uncovers One of the Youngest Known Blue Straggler–White Dwarf Systems
Italian astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have discovered a white dwarf orbiting a blue straggler star in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae, located 15,300 light-years away. The rare system, among the youngest detected, sheds light on stellar mass transfer and offers vital clues to the evolution of binary stars in dense clusters.

Amazon's Kuiper Launches 27 Satellites, Eyes 2025 LEO Broadband Rollout
Amazon’s Project Kuiper is intensifying efforts to compete in the low Earth orbit (LEO) broadband race. With 27 satellites launched in April 2025 and plans for a 3,200-satellite constellation, Amazon has locked in dozens of launches across ULA, Blue Origin, Arianespace, and SpaceX. This move follows its successful 2023 prototypes and aligns with ...
