Mysterious Interstellar Object Might Have Shifted Four Planets’ Paths, Study Finds
A mysterious interstellar object, estimated to be eight times the mass of Jupiter, may have significantly altered the orbits of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune billions of years ago. A study suggests that this body passed remarkably close to the Sun, potentially influencing planetary trajectories. Simulations conducted by researchers indicate ...

Hubble Space Telescope Finds Jupiter’s Great Red Spot Mysteriously Oscillating in Size and Speed
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured new images of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, revealing unusual behaviour in the massive storm. Known for its longevity, this storm has been raging for over 150 years. However, recent observations show the spot oscillating in both size and speed, a phenomenon that has left scientists puzzled.

Asteroid Psyche Maps Hint at a World of Metal and Mystery Ahead of NASA's August Mission
NASA plans to deploy its Psyche probe to study the asteroid belt in August, an area between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter where remains of the early solar system circle the Sun. The probe will orbit and analyse Psyche's surface for two years to find clues about how early planetary bodies originated. Months ahead of the upcoming mission, a grou...
