Biggest Space Discoveries in 2025: From New Comets and Black Holes to Sign of Life on Mars
The year 2025 proved extraordinary for astronomy, delivering discoveries that stretched from our cosmic backyard to distant galaxies. Scientists tracked Comet 3I/ATLAS, only the third known interstellar object, while nearby stars like Barnard’s Star and Alpha Centauri revealed new planetary companions. On Mars, strange “leopard spots” raised ...

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS to Make Closest Approach to Earth on December 19
Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS will make its closest approach to Earth on Dec. 19, passing safely at a vast distance. Discovered by NASA-funded telescopes, the rare visitor offers scientists a valuable chance to study material formed around another star. Observations from space telescopes are expected to deepen understanding of interstellar objects.

Mars Orbiter Tracks Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS With Unprecedented Precision
Scientists mapped the path of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS with ten times greater accuracy using images from ESA’s Mars orbiter. The breakthrough shows how observations from different points in space can improve future planetary defense. The data, the first of its kind from another planet’s orbit, offers a powerful new tool for tracking fast-mov...

ESA’s ExoMars Orbiter Captures Closest Images of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS
ESA’s ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter captured the closest-ever images of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS as it passed Mars at 130,000 mph. The faint object revealed a gas coma but no tail. Believed to be billions of years older than our Solar System, the comet will exit after nearing Jupiter in 2026.

Mars and Jupiter Probes Set to Monitor Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS During Its Sun Approach This Month
The European Space Agency (ESA) is keeping a close eye on the Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS on its journey through the solar system. A spacecraft, specially designed for the Jupiter and Mars missions, will monitor the interstellar comet. Notably, this is the third known interstellar object that has marked its way through the solar system and is conti...
