Fast Radio Bursts Reveal Universe’s Missing Matter Hidden in Cosmic Intergalactic Fog
Astronomers have uncovered the universe’s missing baryonic matter using rapid radio bursts. The study, published in Nature Astronomy, shows that most ordinary matter lies between galaxies, hidden in faint intergalactic clouds. This breakthrough highlights FRBs as powerful tools to probe cosmic structures, paving the way for discoveries in large-s...

NASA’s Lunar Trailblazer Moon Probe Struggles with Power and Signal Loss
NASA’s Lunar Trailblazer, launched on 26 February, has lost communication and is running low on power. The spacecraft, meant to detect water ice on the moon, has been unable to perform key trajectory corrections. Ground controllers are using the Deep Space Network and observatories to assess its position, but recovery remains uncertain. The missi...

New Theory Suggests Gravitational Waves Could Solve Black Hole Information Paradox
A new study proposes a potential solution to the long-standing black hole information paradox, suggesting that black holes might leak information through gravitational waves. Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have explored how quantum nonlocality could connect the interior of a black hole with its exterior. This connection would...

This Bipedal Robot Can Walk, Fly, or Even Ride a Skateboard
A team of researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have come up with a bipedal robot that performs the twin function of walking and flying. Named Leonardo, the part-walking robot, part-flying drone is built in such a way that it can balance itself on a slackline, hop around, or even ride a skateboard.

Astronomers Say Unseen Planet Nine Could Be Brighter, Closer, and Easier To Find
Scientists have long argued there could be a Planet Nine but a definite evidence is yet to be found. Critics assert that finding the planet is unrealistic. A new study by the US-based California Institute of Technology (Caltech) says if the planet is out there, it could be brighter, closer, and easier to find than previously thought.

Researchers Create Bird-Like Robot That May Someday Explore Mars
In research centers around the world, roboticists have for decades been on a quest to perfect bipedal locomotion in machines. They're making progress, but for all the flashy shots of back-flipping, log-hopping robots racking up views on YouTube, researchers say, there are far more failures and dead ends that the public never sees.
