Wolf Moon Supermoon 2026: Rare January Full Moon Near Perihelion Lights Up the Sky
Skywatchers will be treated to a striking celestial event on January 3, 2026, as the Wolf Moon rises as a supermoon near Earth’s perihelion. Appearing larger and brighter than usual, the full Moon will climb the eastern sky at dusk, accompanied by the brilliant planet Jupiter. This rare alignment—last seen more than a century ago—offers a viv...

Spider-Like Scar on Jupiter’s Moon Europa Could Indicate Subsurface Salty Water
A spider-like scar on Jupiter’s moon Europa may indicate briny water beneath its icy crust. Researchers suggest impact-driven flows of salty liquid created starburst patterns resembling Earth’s lake stars. Future observations by NASA’s Europa Clipper mission could confirm these features, offering new insights into Europa’s subsurface oceans...

Scientists Stunned as Earth’s Magnetosphere Shows Reversed Electric Charge Patterns
Scientists have discovered that Earth’s morning-side magnetosphere is negatively charged, overturning decades of assumptions about space electricity. Satellite data and simulations show the charge pattern flips near the equator but remains traditional at the poles. The breakthrough reshapes understanding of space weather and may also clarify elec...

NASA Confirms Discovery of 6,000 Exoplanets Beyond Our Solar System
NASA has confirmed 6,000 exoplanets beyond our solar system, highlighting three decades of accelerating discovery. From scorching hot Jupiters to worlds with jewel-like clouds, the catalog reflects cosmic diversity. Future missions aim to identify true Earth analogs and investigate signs of life across distant planetary systems.

Cosmic Visitor: 4.56-Billion-Year-Old Meteorite Strikes into Georgia Home
On June 26, 2025, a dazzling daytime fireball streaked over Georgia, captured by satellites and witnessed across multiple states. A surviving fragment smashed through the roof of a McDonough home, denting the wooden floor 14 feet below. Scientists at the University of Georgia analyzed about 23 grams of this ancient rock, determining it to be a 4.56...

Doomed Exoplanet TOI-2109b Spirals Toward Its Star with Three Possible Fates
The gas giant TOI-2109b, over five times Jupiter’s mass, is spiraling closer to its star in a rare planetary death spiral. With a 16-hour orbit and blistering heat, the exoplanet could either plunge into its host star, be torn apart by tidal forces, or evolve into a rocky super-Earth through photoevaporation. NASA’s TESS and ESA’s Cheops data...

NASA Engineers Rescue JunoCam with Deep-Space Heating Hack
NASA’s JunoCam, once believed nearly lost to Jupiter’s intense radiation, has made a stunning comeback thanks to a bold experiment. Engineers used a process called annealing—heating the camera from afar—to reverse internal damage and restore image clarity. Just in time for a close flyby of the volcanic moon Io, the camera delivered detailed...
