Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Shows Wobbling Jets in Rare Sun-Facing Tail, Surprising Astronomers
Astronomers have detected strange wobbling jets in the rare sun-facing tail of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS. Observed as the comet neared the Sun, the shifting jets reveal new details about how material escapes from comets formed around other stars, offering rare insight into alien planetary systems.

Planet-Eating Stars Offer a Glimpse Into Earth’s Fate as the Sun Nears Its Final Stages
Astronomers studying aging Sun-like stars have found strong evidence that stars consume their closest planets as they evolve. Using data from NASA’s TESS mission, researchers observed fewer planets around older stars, suggesting worlds are destroyed over time. The findings offer a realistic preview of Earth’s fate billions of years from now.

Betelgeuse and the Crab Nebula Reveal Stellar Death and Rebirth in Multi-Telescope Views
Betelgeuse’s unusual dimming and the Crab Nebula’s remnants offer insight into stellar death and rebirth. Composite images from multiple telescopes show gas filaments and a neutron star, illustrating how massive stars explode, enrich space with heavy elements, and seed future star formation. These observations help scientists trace stellar life...

Hubble Captures Gas Escaping Sideways Spiral Galaxy NGC 4388 in Virgo Cluster
Hubble has captured a glowing plume of gas escaping the spiral galaxy NGC 4388 in the Virgo cluster. Moving through hot intracluster gas, the galaxy sheds material, partially energised by its central black hole. Multi-wavelength observations reveal the impact of both environmental forces and central activity on galaxy evolution.

NASA’s PUNCH Watches Comet Lemmon Respond to the Sun’s Powerful Influence
NASA’s PUNCH mission has captured striking views of Comet Lemmon as it passed close to the Sun in late 2025. The observations show how solar wind and eruptions reshape a comet’s tail, sometimes causing it to break and regrow. The images provide valuable insight into how solar activity affects objects across the inner solar system.

Hubble Captures Rare Collision in Nearby Planetary System, Revealing Violent Planet Formation
Astronomers using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope have witnessed rare collisions between rocky bodies in the Fomalhaut system. The glowing debris clouds created by these impacts offer a unique glimpse into how planets form and highlight challenges in identifying true exoplanets.

"Don't Make Us Open Our Mouth": Supreme Court Rejects Jailed Punjab Cop's Plea
While denying any relief to the suspended officer, the Chief Justice of India (CJI) Surya Kant warned the lawyer appearing for him to not press for hearing as he may invite "observations" from the top court that he may not like.

Astronomers Observe Black Hole Twisting Spacetime for the First Time, Confirming Einstein’s Theory
Astronomers have directly observed a black hole twisting spacetime for the first time, confirming Einstein’s long-standing prediction. The effect was detected during a violent stellar destruction event, where repeating X-ray and radio signals revealed a slow cosmic wobble. The discovery provides new insight into black hole spin, jets, and extreme...
