Polaris Wasn’t Always the North Star: How Earth’s Wobble Shifts the Celestial Pole
Earth’s 26,000-year axial precession gradually shifts the celestial pole, replacing Polaris with new North Stars over millennia. Stars like Thuban, Kochab, Errai, and Vega have taken turns guiding humanity, and more will follow. According to NASA, gravitational forces cause this cosmic wobble, reminding us that even the seemingly constant night s...

Sun’s Magnetic Activity Is Making It Difficult to Gauge Its True Age, Study Finds
Astronomers have traditionally relied on helioseismology to estimate the Sun's age by analysing the vibrations that ripple through its interior. However, recent research has uncovered a significant obstacle, the Sun's magnetic activity, which follows an 11-year cycle, appears to be distorting these measurements. Data from the Birmingham Solar Oscil...
