New Gravitational-Wave Signal May Reveal Primordial Black Holes Born After the Big Bang
Scientists have spotted an unusual gravitational-wave signal that may reveal the universe’s first primordial black holes—tiny relics dating back to the Big Bang. Recorded by LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA in November 2025, the event involves an object far lighter than any known stellar remnant. If verified, it could reshape theories of black holes and da...

700-Metre Asteroid Hides Inside Venus's Orbit, Completes Sun Circle In 128 Days
A fast-orbiting, 700-metre asteroid discovered within Venus's orbit highlights hidden near-Sun populations and underscores the difficulty of spotting potentially hazardous space rocks.

Astronomers Spot Mysterious Dark Object In Distant Universe, It's A Million Times Larger Than The Sun
A mysterious object with a mass equivalent to 1 million suns has been detected in space, but its nature remains unknown.

James Webb Space Telescope Reveals a Stunning Einstein Ring in Hydrus
A striking new image from the James Webb Space Telescope reveals an Einstein ring in the Hydrus constellation. The phenomenon occurs when a massive foreground galaxy bends light from a hidden background galaxy, forming a near-perfect ring. This effect, predicted by Einstein’s theory of general relativity, helps astronomers study galaxies from the...

NASA Partners With SpaceX To Launch NEO Surveyor, a Mission To Detect Asteroid Threats
NASA has selected SpaceX for the launch of its NEO Surveyor spacecraft in 2027. The mission, valued at $100 million, will use a Falcon 9 rocket to deploy the spacecraft to the Sun-Earth Lagrange Point 1. The infrared telescope will help detect and track hazardous near-Earth objects, including difficult-to-spot dark asteroids. This mission builds on...

Rubin Observatory’s 2025 Debut Could Unveil Hidden Dark Comets in Space
The Vera Rubin Observatory, set to begin operations in 2025, is expected to revolutionise the study of dark comets. These elusive objects, which lack visible tails but exhibit non-gravitational acceleration, have already been identified in our solar system, but their true numbers remain unknown. The observatory's advanced technology, including a po...

Researchers Propose Evidence of Primordial Black Holes in Cosmic Objects and Earthly Materials
A study led by the University at Buffalo suggests primordial black holes (PBHs), formed in the early universe, could leave traces in both cosmic and terrestrial objects. Researchers believe PBHs, which are much smaller than stellar black holes, might leave hollow structures in celestial bodies like asteroids or moons. Additionally, passing through ...

Landmark Data: The Euclid Telescope Begins Mapping the Dark Matter
The Euclid space telescope, launched by the European Space Agency, is making significant strides in mapping dark matter and dark energy. Recent images reveal stunning celestial objects, including galaxy clusters like Abell 2390 and star nurseries lik

NASA's Hubble Captures a Pair of Interacting Galaxies Forming the Number '10' in Space
In its more than 30 years of service, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has made over 1.3 million observations of intriguing cosmic events and bodies. It once captured a pair of gravitationally interacting galaxies called Arp 147, using its prime working camera – the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2). The “Hubble Classic” image has been again...

A $450 Million Expriment to Detect Ripples in Space-Time
What may sound like a frivolous enterprise is actually the prelude to a far more ambitious mission that it's hoped will measure ripples in space-time caused by black holes and other massive objects lurking unseen in dark corners of the galaxy.
