NASA's James Webb Telescope Observes Millions Of Stars Within 'Cigar Galaxy'
Astronomers note that M82's extreme starburst phase won't last forever. It is expected to continue for only a few hundred million years-a brief moment in cosmic time.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope Confirms Asteroid 2024 YR4 Will Not Strike the Moon
New Webb observations refined asteroid 2024 YR4’s orbit, showing it will safely pass about 21,200 km from the Moon in December 2032. The earlier 4.3% impact probability has now been eliminated.

JWST Reveals Stunning New Details About M87’s Supermassive Black Hole Jet
Recent images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are the clearest ever pictures of the jet arriving from the massive black hole in the galaxy named Messier 87 (M87). There are clear details in the image shot by the telescope, which show the change of brightness, shape and the jet that is usually in disguise. As per scientists, this d...

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope Spots Rare Quintet of Galaxies From the Early Universe
Astronomers using JWST and Hubble have discovered JWST’s Quintet, a system of at least five merging galaxies just 800 million years after the Big Bang. This rare find shows how galaxies grew rapidly in the early universe and may explain how some became inactive so soon.

Signs of Alien Life Detected on Nearby Exoplanet Using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope
Astronomers have detected possible biosignature gases, including dimethyl sulfide (DMS), in the atmosphere of exoplanet K2-18b using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. Located in the habitable zone, this “Hycean” world may host a vast ocean and a hydrogen-rich atmosphere, raising intriguing possibilities about alien life. Further research is ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope Shares Detailed Mosaic of the Sombrero Galaxy
NASA’s Hubble reveals a detailed view of the Galactic favourite, the Sombrero Galaxy, telling about the rare shape of the galaxy. The Sombrero Galaxy is found to have metal-rich stars in its outer region. This research has a future scope of getting deeper insights into its formation by using the advanced imaging technique of Hubble.

Asteroid 2024 YR4 Has a 2.3 Percent Chance of Hitting Earth in 2032, Says NASA
Asteroid 2024 YR4, measuring 180 feet wide, has a 2.3% chance of impacting Earth on 22 December 2032, according to scientists. A smaller 0.3% risk of the asteroid colliding with the moon has also been noted. While the Earth impact could release energy equal to 8 megatons of TNT, a moon strike may create a visible crater. Researchers are using the J...
