Scientists Discover 'Potentially Habitable' Earth-Like Planet Candidate
If confirmed, this exoplanet would be the only known rocky world in the habitable zone of a Sun-like star.

Kepler Data Reveals Earth-Size Exoplanet on the Edge of Its Star’s Habitable Zone
Scientists studying Kepler telescope data have identified HD 137010 b, a possible Earth-sized planet orbiting a Sun-like star. While the planet follows a year-long orbit and may sit near the habitable zone, limited starlight could leave it colder than Mars. Future observations will determine whether this icy world truly exists.

Falling Space Debris Can Be Tracked Across Earth Using Earthquake Sensors
This new method could provide real-time data on falling space debris, increasing safety and allowing authorities to take faster action.

NASA’s Miner++ AI Brings Machine Digs Into TESS Archive to the Hunt for Nearby Earth-Like Worlds
NASA’s TESS mission is revolutionising the search for exoplanets with the help of artificial intelligence. Using deep-learning tools such as ExoMiner++, scientists can rapidly distinguish real planetary transits from stellar noise. This approach has already revealed thousands of planet candidates and is expected to play a crucial role as upcoming...

"Incredibly Interesting Samples": Indian Scientist At Davos On Search For Life On Mars
Meenakshi Wadhwa, who is among the world's finest planetary scientists, was responsible for looking for life on Mars based on return data from the rovers on the Red Planet.

Is Space Sticky? New Study Challenges Standard Dark Energy Theory
New observations from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument are challenging the standard Lambda-CDM model of cosmology. A recent, still-unpublished hypothesis suggests that space itself may behave like a slightly viscous or “sticky” fluid, subtly affecting how the universe expands. By introducing a ghostly resistance to cosmic growth, the mo...

Scientists Discover What Lies Beneath Antarctica's Ice More Clearly Than Ever
Previously, scientists relied on ground-based or airborne radar to map the subglacial topography.

Scientists Confirm 2025 Was Third-Hottest Year, Trailing 2024 and 2023
Last year was the third hottest on record, according to an analysis of temperature data released Wednesday by three independent agencies. That puts 2025 just behind the second-hottest year, 2023, and the hottest, 2024.

Scientists Study 100 Possible Alien Signals as Arecibo’s Historic SETI Search Concludes
Scientists are studying 100 possible alien radio signals identified from Arecibo Observatory data, bringing the 21-year SETI@Home project to a close. Supported by millions of volunteers, the effort found no confirmed alien messages but set new sensitivity standards. Researchers say the findings will guide future searches using more powerful radio t...

New Study Explains Why Earth’s Poles Are Heating Up at an Alarming Rate
The Arctic is warming faster than anywhere on Earth, and new research reveals why. Using aircraft and ground measurements, scientists found that openings in sea ice boost cloud formation while pollution from oil fields alters Arctic chemistry. Together, these processes form powerful feedback loops that trap heat and speed ice loss. The findings hig...
