NASA’s ESCAPADE Mission to Study Space Weather Between Earth and Mars
NASA’s ESCAPADE mission will send two identical orbiters to Mars to study how solar wind and space weather strip away the planet’s atmosphere. Launching in 2025 and arriving in 2027, the twin spacecraft will measure solar wind conditions and Mars’s atmospheric response simultaneously, helping scientists understand how the Red Planet lost its ...

Scientists Discover High-Density Rocky Planet in LHS 1903 System That Defies Conventional Formation Models
ESA’s CHEOPS mission has uncovered a surprising rocky planet at the outer edge of the LHS 1903 system. Located 116 light-years away, the discovery defies expectations that outer planets are gas giants. Scientists say the finding offers rare evidence that planets can form in gas-depleted environments, challenging current planetary formation models...

Scientists Spot Ultra-Fast Pulsar Near Milky Way’s Supermassive Black Hole
Scientists have detected a possible ultra-fast pulsar spinning every 8.19 milliseconds near the Milky Way’s central black hole. If confirmed, this rare object could act as a precise cosmic clock, helping researchers study how gravity behaves in extreme environments and offering a powerful new way to test Einstein’s theory of general relativity ...

SPHEREx Captures Dramatic Outburst of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS
NASA’s SPHEREx telescope captured a dramatic outburst from interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS after its close solar flyby in October 2025. Infrared observations in December revealed water vapor, carbon dioxide, methanol, methane, and cyanide erupting from the comet’s nucleus. Scientists say the chemical makeup suggests formation in a relatively warm e...

NASA’s TESS Captures First Images of Rare Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite has captured rare images of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, only the third such object ever detected. Observations from January 2026 reveal the comet rotates every 15 hours and produces sunlight-driven jets, behaving much like Solar System comets. Scientists say studying 3I/ATLAS may unlock clues about th...

2025 Was One Of Three Hottest Years On Record: Scientists
Temperatures remained high despite the presence of a La Nina, the occasional natural cooling of Pacific Ocean waters that influences weather worldwide. Researchers cited the continued burning of fossil fuels that send greenhouse gases into atmosphere

New Shortcut Lets Scientists Run Complex Quantum Models on a Laptop
A University at Buffalo team has redesigned the truncated Wigner approximation into an easy, plug-and-play template that lets scientists run complex quantum simulations on everyday laptops. The method works for open systems, slashes computing demands, and helps free supercomputers for the hardest quantum problems.

Is Earth Really Getting Too Hot To Live? Scientist Explains Climate Change
Hot air evaporates a lot more water, so crops, forests and landscapes in some areas dry out, which makes them more susceptible to wildfire. Each Celsius degree of warming can cause a sixfold increase in wildfire over parts of the western US.
