  JWST Uncovers the Origins of the Universe’s First Supermassive Black Holes

  James Webb Space Telescope observations reveal that the earliest supermassive black holes formed from massive gas clouds collapsing directly into heavy seeds. This process bypassed normal star formation, allowing black holes to reach millions of solar masses within just 200–500 million years after the Big Bang, solving a long-standing cosmic myst...

  NASA’s Miner++ AI Brings Machine Digs Into TESS Archive to the Hunt for Nearby Earth-Like Worlds

  NASA’s TESS mission is revolutionising the search for exoplanets with the help of artificial intelligence. Using deep-learning tools such as ExoMiner++, scientists can rapidly distinguish real planetary transits from stellar noise. This approach has already revealed thousands of planet candidates and is expected to play a crucial role as upcoming...

  JWST Reveals Powerful Winds and Dense Atmosphere on Scorching Exoplanet TOI-561b

  Astronomers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have found compelling evidence that TOI-561b, an ultra-hot rocky exoplanet orbiting its star every 11 hours, still retains a dense atmosphere. Temperatures measured on both its day and night sides are far lower than expected for a bare rock, implying powerful winds and efficient heat transport. ...
