NASA’s Curiosity Rover Finds Crater Filled With Sand, Alters Drilling Plans
- Thursday April 23, 2026
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Curiosity rover found its target crater filled with sand, forcing NASA to abandon drilling plans. The rover is now studying nearby bedrock and preparing to sample a new sulfate-rich site to uncover Mars’ geological history.

NASA Juno Mission Uncovers Subtle Geometric Shifts That Challenge Existing Models of the Jovian Interior
- Saturday February 14, 2026
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have refined Jupiter’s size and shape using modern radio signal observations, finding the giant planet slightly smaller and more flattened than earlier estimates. Though the difference is only a few kilometres, researchers say it greatly improves models of Jupiter’s interior, gravity, and atmospheric structure, offering deeper insigh...

Venus May Hide a Vast Underground Tunnel Formed by Ancient Volcanic Eruptions, Scientists Say
- Wednesday February 11, 2026
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
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.

Astronomers Successfully Weigh a Starless ‘Rogue Planet’ Drifting Through the Milky Way
- Monday January 5, 2026
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have precisely measured the mass of a rogue planet wandering through the Milky Way using a rare gravitational microlensing event. By combining observations from ground-based telescopes across three continents with data from ESA’s Gaia spacecraft, researchers determined the planet’s distance and found it to be about the mass of Satur...

Scientists Finally Identify What Drives Venus’s Fast Winds
- Saturday November 29, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A new study has identified the primary force behind Venus’s extreme superrotating atmosphere: a once-per-day thermal tide driven by solar heating. Using data from Venus Express and Akatsuki along with circulation models, researchers show that this daily tide transports most of the momentum that accelerates cloud-top winds to speeds over 100 metre...

Newly Found ‘Super-Earth’ GJ 251 c Could Be One of the Most Promising Worlds for Alien Life
- Sunday October 26, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A new super-Earth, GJ 251 c, has been found orbiting a nearby red dwarf star within its habitable zone. About four times Earth’s mass, it may host liquid water. Detected via the radial-velocity method using Penn State’s Habitable Zone Planet Finder, it’s a prime target in the search for life.

New Rogue Planet Discovered in Hubble Data Using Einstein’s Gravity Theory
- Friday August 1, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers discovered a rogue planet hidden in Hubble’s archival data using gravitational microlensing based on Einstein’s theory. The event, OGLE-2023-BLG-0524, lasted just eight hours and lacked signs of a host star, suggesting the planet might be truly free-floating.
