New ALMA Images Reveal Complex Rings Left Behind by Planet Formation
Astronomers used ALMA to capture unprecedented images of young exoplanetary systems. The ARKS survey mapped 24 debris disks, revealing rings, gaps and collisions that trace planetary evolution. These snapshots expose chaotic transitional stages, helping scientists understand how newborn planets mature into stable systems like our own Solar System t...

India’s AstroSat and NASA's Space Observatories Collaborate to Unravel Black Hole’s Mystery
Researchers from NASA and India’s ISRO have collaborated to study the interaction between a massive black hole and a star that ventured too close. Using multiple observatories, including AstroSat, they discovered the link between tidal disruption events and quasi-periodic eruptions. This research offers new insights into the expanding debris disk...
