How India's Heatwaves Are Changing: 5 Patterns Weather Data Is Revealing
Scientists say several factors - including warming temperatures, soil moisture loss and atmospheric circulation patterns - can contribute to prolonged heat episodes.

Rising CO2 Levels Are Reflected In Human Blood. Scientists Don't Know What It Means
Our findings are not suggesting people will become suddenly unwell when atmospheric CO reaches a certain level. What the data show is a signal that warrants attention.

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...

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 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...

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...

Venus May Hide a Vast Underground Tunnel Formed by Ancient Volcanic Eruptions, Scientists Say
Scientists analysing NASA’s Magellan radar data have identified signs of a vast underground lava tunnel on Venus. If confirmed, it would be only the second such structure found on the planet, challenging the belief that Venus is geologically inactive and opening new possibilities for studying its volcanic past.
