Study Reveals Mars Has A Much Stronger Influence On Earth's Climate
Previous research on deep-sea sediments had suggested that Mars might influence Earth's climate, but the magnitude of this influence had not been clearly established.

Understanding Winter Solstice: All About Shortest Day Of The Year
The solstices mark the times when the Earth's tilt toward or away from the sun is at its maximum. This means the hemispheres are getting very different amounts of sunlight - and days and nights are at their most unequal.

As Polar Night Begins, This City Won't See Sun For Next 64 Days
The Polar Night phenomenon, caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis, will leave the town without direct sunlight until January 22, 2026.

Astronomers Detect Hints Of Hidden Earth-Sized Planet Beyond Neptune
Astronomers propose the existence of ‘Planet Y’, a hidden Earth-size planet that may orbit closer than the theorized ‘Planet Nine’. Based on Kuiper Belt object patterns, the study suggests a rocky world influencing orbital tilts. Experts remain divided, but upcoming sky surveys could soon confirm or rule out its existence.

Earth’s Spin to Speed Up Briefly, Causing Shorter Days This Summer
Scientists report that Earth will briefly spin faster on July 9, 22, and August 5, shortening those summer days by 1.3 to 1.5 milliseconds. Though undetectable in daily life, this shift offers clues to how lunar gravity and seasonal changes affect planetary dynamics. Experts note that while timekeeping systems like GPS are unaffected, this rare spe...

Summer Solstice 2025: When Is The Longest Day Of Year & What Does It Mean?
Traditionally, the solstice marks the longest day and the start of summer. The event has fascinated civilisations for thousands of years.

Solar Orbiter Captures First-Ever Close-Up of Sun’s South Pole, Revealing Magnetic Field Chaos
In a historic first, ESA’s Solar Orbiter has imaged the Sun’s elusive south pole, exposing a tangle of magnetic fields and solar winds. The mission marks a major leap in understanding space weather and the 11-year solar cycle that influences Earth’s environment.

NASA introduces Joby Aircraft to Study Wind Effects and Track Aircraft
The expert team of researchers from NASA has started to study winds and improve aircraft tracking with its experimental aircraft, i.e., Joby. This aircraft will collect essential data and drive improvements in the aviation industry by air collision avoidance and enhanced aircraft tracking, specifically in high-traffic areas.

James Webb Telescope Captures Neptune’s Auroras in Stunning Detail
The James Webb Space Telescope has provided the first-ever direct images of Neptune’s auroras, revealing surprising details about the ice giant’s atmosphere. Unlike auroras on Earth, Jupiter, or Saturn, Neptune’s auroras appear across unexpected locations due to its tilted and offset magnetic field. Scientists also detected the presence of H...

Wolf-Rayet 104's Orbit Tilt Reduces Gamma-Ray Burst Threat, Study Finds
New research using Keck Observatory’s instruments confirms that the orbit of Wolf-Rayet 104 is tilted 30-40 degrees away from Earth, lowering concerns about a possible gamma-ray burst. Previously, it was believed that the system’s alignment could pose a risk. However, spectroscopy data now challenges these assumptions, raising new questions abo...
