Ursa Major III May Be a Star Cluster, Not a Dark-Matter Dwarf Galaxy
- Sunday August 24, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have long thought Ursa Major III, also called UNIONS 1, was a dark-matter-packed dwarf galaxy. But new simulations suggest it may instead be a compact star cluster bound by black holes and neutron stars. Located 30,000 light-years away, Ursa Major III contains just ~60 visible stars yet shows puzzlingly high stellar velocities. The new ...

Hubble Discovers White Dwarf Merger Remnant with Unusual Carbon Signature
- Friday August 22, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
An international team of astronomers has discovered WD 0525+526, an unusual white dwarf about 128 light-years away, using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. Unlike typical white dwarfs, this star formed through a stellar merger and shows an unexpectedly high carbon content. With a mass of 1.2 Suns and a scorching surface temperature of 21,000 K, the ...

NASA Data Shows Pluto’s Equator Is Lined with Towering Methane Ice Spires
- Monday August 4, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
New research based on New Horizons’ decade-old data has uncovered extensive bladed terrain made of methane ice on Pluto. These towering spires, arranged in spaced-out, parallel rows, are likely shaped by seasonal condensation and sublimation cycles. While the terrain spans over half the planet’s midsection, five times the width of continental U...

Young Exoplanet Spotted Shedding Atmosphere Under Stellar Radiation
- Thursday July 17, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and Hubble Space Telescope have captured a dramatic cosmic event: a baby exoplanet, TOI 1227 b, is being stripped of its atmosphere by powerful X-rays from its host star. Only 8 million years old and orbiting a red dwarf, this Jupiter-sized planet is losing gas at a rate equal to Earth’s entire atmosphere every ...

NASA’s Hubble and Webb Discover Bursting Star Formation in Small Magellanic Cloud
- Saturday July 12, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s Hubble and Webb telescopes have captured spectacular images of NGC 460 and NGC 456, two star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud. These young, open clusters are filled with massive, hot stars that trigger new star formation by carving nebulae. The findings provide insights into early universe conditions and interstellar medium behaviour...

Scientists Say Dark Matter Could Turn Failed Stars Into ‘Dark Dwarfs’
- Friday July 11, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers suggest that brown dwarfs—dim, failed stars—could transform into “dark dwarfs” by capturing dark matter in their cores. When dark matter particles annihilate, they release heat, potentially lighting up these stars. Physicist Jeremy Sakstein and researchers like Jillian Paulin and Rebecca Leane support this idea, which could help...

Dark Dwarfs: New Star-Like Objects May Reveal Nature of Dark Matter
- Wednesday July 9, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have proposed a new class of stellar objects called “dark dwarfs,” sub-stellar bodies that may glow faintly from the energy released by annihilating dark matter particles. Found near the galaxy’s core, these objects could hold crucial clues about the elusive nature of dark matter. Powered not by fusion but by WIMP-like particles, d...

Astronomers Capture First-Ever Image of a Dead Star That Exploded Twice in Rare Supernova Event
- Saturday July 5, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have captured the first-ever image of a white dwarf star undergoing a rare double-detonation supernova. Using the Very Large Telescope, the team revealed that such explosions can occur without a star reaching the Chandrasekhar limit. The findings, published in Nature Astronomy, could reshape existing theories about stellar death and imp...

JWST Reveals Pluto’s Haze Cools Atmosphere, Paints Charon’s Poles Red
- Sunday June 15, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Pluto's thin haze of organic particles, confirmed by JWST’s mid-infrared observations, plays a crucial role in both cooling its mesosphere and launching methane into space. This methane escapes Pluto’s gravity, landing on Charon’s poles where radiation transforms it into reddish tholins. The study highlights how Pluto’s haze shapes not only...
