Hubble Reveals How Blue Straggler Stars Stay Young in Ancient Clusters
Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have uncovered new clues to the mystery of blue straggler stars—unusually hot, bright stars found in ancient globular clusters. By studying ultraviolet light from 48 clusters, scientists discovered that blue stragglers are more common in sparse clusters, supporting the idea that they form through binar...

Biggest Space Discoveries in 2025: From New Comets and Black Holes to Sign of Life on Mars
The year 2025 proved extraordinary for astronomy, delivering discoveries that stretched from our cosmic backyard to distant galaxies. Scientists tracked Comet 3I/ATLAS, only the third known interstellar object, while nearby stars like Barnard’s Star and Alpha Centauri revealed new planetary companions. On Mars, strange “leopard spots” raised ...

Scientists Solve the Mystery Behind LIGO’s “Forbidden” Black Hole Pair
When LIGO and Virgo detected GW231123 in late 2023, it appeared to show two black holes merging in the so-called mass gap, where theory predicted none should exist. But new simulations indicate that rapidly spinning, strongly magnetized massive stars can collapse into black holes without exploding entirely. This process sheds enough mass to leave b...

Newly Found ‘Super-Earth’ GJ 251 c Could Be One of the Most Promising Worlds for Alien Life
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.

Deep-Sea Beryllium-10 Hints at Supernova Debris Reaching Earth 10 Million Years Ago
A new study has uncovered deep-sea evidence suggesting Earth may have been struck by debris from a nearby exploding star 10 million years ago. Scientists found unusually high levels of Beryllium-10 in Pacific crusts, consistent with a supernova origin. The findings could transform understanding of cosmic influences on Earth’s history, though terr...

NASA’s James Webb Telescope May Have Found First Black Hole Star, Known as ‘The Cliff’
JWST detected “The Cliff,” a candidate black hole star with a black hole core wrapped in a luminous gas shell. This discovery offers insights into black hole formation, stellar evolution, and cosmic dynamics, prompting astronomers to search for similar objects across the universe.

New Rogue Planet Discovered in Hubble Data Using Einstein’s Gravity Theory
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.

Dark Dwarfs: New Star-Like Objects May Reveal Nature of Dark Matter
Scientists have proposed a new class of stellar objects called “dark dwarfs,” sub-stellar bodies that may glow faintly from the energy released by annihilating dark matter particles. Found near the galaxy’s core, these objects could hold crucial clues about the elusive nature of dark matter. Powered not by fusion but by WIMP-like particles, d...

James Webb Telescope Maps Fiery Atmosphere of Turbulent Exoplanet WASP-121b
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has unveiled the turbulent history of WASP-121b, a scorching exoplanet distorted by its star’s gravity. New atmospheric data reveals unusual molecules like silicon monoxide and methane, shedding light on the planet’s violent migration and extreme climate. These findings challenge current models and enhance un...

New Study Confirms TeV Halos Are Common in Middle-Aged Pulsars
A recent study by researchers from the U.S. and Mexico using data from the HAWC Observatory has confirmed that TeV halos are a universal feature of middle-aged pulsars. These extended regions of gamma-ray emission are significantly larger than pulsar wind nebulae and may help identify otherwise undetectable pulsars. The findings challenge existing ...
