Astronomers Find ‘Impossible’ Galaxy ACDG-2 With Virtually No Stars and a Massive Dark Matter Core
Astronomers have identified CDG-2, a faint galaxy in the Perseus cluster that appears to be composed almost entirely of dark matter. Located 300 million light-years from Earth, it was discovered by tracking globular star clusters using data from Hubble, Euclid, and Subaru telescopes. Scientists estimate that about 99% of its total mass is dark matt...

Microsoft Project Silica Can Preserve Terabytes of Data in Glass for 10,000 Years Without Power
Microsoft’s Project Silica demonstrates that digital data can be stored in ordinary borosilicate glass for over 10,000 years. Using femtosecond lasers, researchers encode information as microscopic 3D voxels, achieving densities of 4.8 terabytes on a 2mm sheet. Unlike magnetic tapes or hard drives that degrade within decades, glass resists heat, ...

New Study Predicts Cosmic ‘Big Crunch’ Could End Everything in 20 Billion Years
New research suggests the Universe’s expansion could eventually reverse, leading to a dramatic “Big Crunch.” By analyzing dark energy survey data, scientists propose expansion may stop in about 11 billion years before contraction begins. The model predicts a final cosmic collapse roughly 20 billion years from now, though uncertainties remain ...

NASA Eyes March Launch for Artemis II After Hydrogen Tank Confidence Test Hits Equipment Snag
NASA is analysing data from a recent Artemis II confidence test that examined the SLS liquid hydrogen tank and replaced seals. Despite a ground equipment flow issue, engineers gathered critical performance data and will inspect systems before scheduling the next wet dress rehearsal, with March still considered the earliest possible launch window.

NASA Juno Mission Uncovers Subtle Geometric Shifts That Challenge Existing Models of the Jovian Interior
Scientists have refined Jupiter’s size and shape using modern radio signal observations, finding the giant planet slightly smaller and more flattened than earlier estimates. Though the difference is only a few kilometres, researchers say it greatly improves models of Jupiter’s interior, gravity, and atmospheric structure, offering deeper insigh...

NASA Shares Heart-Shaped Nebula Image To Mark Valentine's Day
In this image, the Cocoon Nebula appears as a glowing, heart-shaped cloud, with a star-filled sky stretching behind it.

Astronomers Witness Rare Failed Supernova in Andromeda Galaxy
NASA’s NEOWISE infrared telescope has provided striking evidence that a massive star in the Andromeda galaxy collapsed directly into a black hole without exploding as a supernova. The star, M31-2014-DS1, faded dramatically in visible light while leaving a faint infrared glow from surrounding dust. Astronomers say this rare “failed supernova” ...

AI Uses NASA Images To Locate Luna 9, Historic Soviet Spacecraft Missing Since 1966
While the findings are promising, they are not yet definitive proof of Luna 9's location.

SPHEREx Captures Dramatic Outburst of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS
NASA’s SPHEREx telescope captured a dramatic outburst from interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS after its close solar flyby in October 2025. Infrared observations in December revealed water vapor, carbon dioxide, methanol, methane, and cyanide erupting from the comet’s nucleus. Scientists say the chemical makeup suggests formation in a relatively warm e...
