A Planet with a Death Wish: How HIP 67522 b Is Forcing Its Star to Explode
- Thursday July 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA-backed astronomers have identified HIP 67522 b, a Jupiter-sized planet orbiting extremely close to its star, causing massive magnetic explosions. For the first time, a planet has been shown to trigger solar flares on its host star, highlighting a new era in exoplanet and stellar magnetic research.

Mars Dust Devils May Spark Lightning, Might Pose Risks to Rovers: Study
- Thursday July 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A new computer-modeling study reveals that dust devils on Mars—swirling columns of dust and air—may become electrically charged enough to spark lightning-like discharges. Led by researcher Varun Sheel, the study simulates how dry Martian conditions and frictional collisions between dust grains can generate strong electric fields inside these vo...

FireSat Protoflight Satellite to Scan Earth Every 20 Minutes for Early Wildfire Detection
- Wednesday July 2, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Muon Space’s FireSat project will form a 50-satellite constellation that scans the planet every 20 minutes to detect wildfires using multi-band infrared imaging. The constellation aims to support first responders and policymakers with high-resolution thermal data, bridging a critical gap in satellite-based wildfire detection. Its first satellite ...

Astronomers Discover Baby Planets Taking Their First Steps in Nearby Stellar Nursery
- Monday June 30, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have detected early signs of planet formation in 27 young protoplanetary disks within the Ophiuchus star-forming region, just 460 light-years away. High-resolution imaging revealed spiral and ring patterns forming earlier than expected, suggesting stars and planets may grow together from infancy. The findings bridge a knowledge gap betw...

Rare Titan Shadow Transits Will Sweep Across Saturn in Summer 2025
- Monday June 30, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
In a rare celestial alignment, Saturn’s largest moon Titan will cast its shadow across the planet in a series of stunning transits during the summer and early fall of 2025. These events, visible through telescopes, appear as dark “holes” drifting across Saturn’s face as Titan eclipses the planet. The phenomenon occurs only near Saturn’s e...

James Webb Telescope Captures First Direct Image of Saturn-Mass Exoplanet
- Friday June 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has reached a major milestone by capturing its first direct image of TWA 7 b, a newly discovered Saturn-mass exoplanet orbiting the young star TWA 7. Using a coronagraph to block starlight, Webb identified the planet embedded in the star’s dusty ring system. TWA 7 b is the smallest exoplanet ever imaged dir...

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach Review — Ode to a Dying Planet
- Monday June 23, 2025
- Written by Manas Mitul, Edited by Siddharth Suvarna
Death Stranding 2 is bigger and better and bolder. It deepens the themes and ideas introduced in Death Stranding and poses new questions relevant and important to our living reality today. It is wilder, more confounding, less trusting of us as a people than its predecessor — it comes with the tagline “Should we have connected?”. Make what you...

James Webb Telescope Spots Planet Formation in Harshest Known Galactic Environments
- Sunday June 22, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed that planets can form in extreme radiation zones. A protoplanetary disk called XUE 1, exposed to intense ultraviolet light, still shows signs of water and potential for rocky planet formation. The findings challenge old assumptions and broaden the possible regions where Earth-like planets may emerge.
