Astronomers Decode Mysterious Blast From Space That Lasted Seven Hours
The signal lasted for seven hours, and its duration and intensity suggest previously unknown processes in the universe.

NASA Attempts To Connect With MAVEN Spacecraft, Mysteriously Lost Since December
A team of experts is also analysing snippets of data recovered from a December 6 radio science campaign.

World’s Biggest Alien Search Enters Final Stage With 100 Mystery Signals
SETI scientists are using China’s FAST radio telescope to examine the final 100 unexplained signals from the historic SETI@home project. While experts expect most to be radio interference, the search marks the culmination of a massive global citizen science effort and sets new standards for future hunts for extraterrestrial intelligence.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope Might Have Spotted Hidden Supermassive Black Holes
Mysterious “little red dots” spotted by the James Webb Space Telescope may not be tiny galaxies after all. A new study suggests they are supermassive black holes wrapped in dense gas and dust, perfectly disguised in the early universe and shining intensely in infrared light.

NASA’s GRACE Satellites Reveal Hidden Deep-Earth Process Behind Gravity Disturbance
Scientists have discovered a mysterious gravity signal detected by satellites nearly 20 years ago, which is linked to deep mantle changes beneath the Earth’s surface. The anomaly, lasting two years, coincided with a magnetic “jerk”, suggesting a rapid mass shift near the planet’s core.

Dead NASA Satellite Relay 2 May Have Caused Mysterious 2024 Radio Burst
In June 2024, a mysterious 30-nanosecond radio burst baffled scientists — until they traced it back to a surprising source: Relay 2, a NASA satellite offline since 1967. Researchers believe the signal could have been triggered either by a micrometeorite impact or an electrostatic discharge. The discovery, detailed in a new preprint study, highlig...

Mysterious "Dead" Satellite Sends Powerful Signal to Earth After Decades
The radio pulse was blasted from a defunct satellite, Relay 2, which was an experimental communications satellite launched in 1964.

Astronomers Detect Mysterious Deep Space Object Emitting Strange Signals
According to a new study published in the journal Nature, the object releases intense signals for two minutes every 44 minutes.

Unusual X-ray Flash in Large Magellanic Cloud Puzzles Astronomers
A brief yet intense X-ray flash, XRT 200515, was detected in NASA's Chandra telescope data from 2000. The signal, originating from the Large Magellanic Cloud, has left scientists debating its cause. Possible explanations include a neutron star pulling in gas from a companion star or a powerful flare from a distant magnetar. Researchers also specula...
