Chandra Detects Giant X-Ray Bubble Around Young Sun-Like Star HD 61005
NASA astronomers using the Chandra X-ray Observatory have discovered a vast, million-degree gas bubble surrounding HD 61005, a 100-million-year-old Sun-like star about 120 light-years away. Its stellar wind is far stronger than today’s solar wind, forming a 200 astronomical unit-wide astrosphere that offers rare insight into how the young Sun onc...

Astronomers Witness Rare Failed Supernova in Andromeda Galaxy
NASA’s NEOWISE infrared telescope has provided striking evidence that a massive star in the Andromeda galaxy collapsed directly into a black hole without exploding as a supernova. The star, M31-2014-DS1, faded dramatically in visible light while leaving a faint infrared glow from surrounding dust. Astronomers say this rare “failed supernova” ...

Venus May Hide a Vast Underground Tunnel Formed by Ancient Volcanic Eruptions, Scientists Say
Scientists analysing NASA’s Magellan radar data have identified signs of a vast underground lava tunnel on Venus. If confirmed, it would be only the second such structure found on the planet, challenging the belief that Venus is geologically inactive and opening new possibilities for studying its volcanic past.

James Webb Telescope Discovers Most Distant Galaxy From Just 300 Million Years After the Big Bang
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered the most distant galaxy ever observed, JADES-GS-z14-0, seen as it existed just 300 million years after the Big Bang. Its unexpected brightness and chemical complexity suggest rapid early star formation, challenging long-standing theories about how the first galaxies evolved in the early universe.

US Student Discovers 1.5 Million New Space Objects. Scientists Are Bewildered
What began as a summer learning project has turned into a scientific discovery. An American high school student has identified nearly 1.5 million previously unknown objects in space.

AI Identifies More Than 1,300 Unusual Objects in Hubble Space Telescope Images
Artificial intelligence has combed through decades of Hubble Space Telescope data, revealing hundreds of unusual celestial objects that astronomers had missed. ESA’s AnomalyMatch neural network scanned around 100 million image cutouts in just days, flagging more than 1,300 anomalies. Among them are colliding galaxies, rare gravitational lenses, a...

Discovery Of Ancient Beach On Mars Provides Clues To Planet's Past Life
The findings suggest that calm lake conditions existed earlier than previously thought.

NASA Finds Ammonia Compounds On The Surface Of Jupiter's Moon Europa
NASA's Galileo mission launched in 1989 and was operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California.

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...
