Most Distant Mini-Halo Discovered in Galaxy Cluster 10 Billion Light-Years Away
- Monday June 30, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have uncovered the most distant mini-halo ever detected, located around the galaxy cluster SpARCS1049, a staggering 10 billion light-years from Earth. Using the LOFAR radio telescope network, which spans eight European countries, researchers detected a faint, diffuse glow—evidence of a giant cloud of high-energy particles and magnetic...

Dead NASA Satellite Relay 2 May Have Caused Mysterious 2024 Radio Burst
- Friday June 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
In June 2024, a mysterious 30-nanosecond radio burst baffled scientists — until they traced it back to a surprising source: Relay 2, a NASA satellite offline since 1967. Researchers believe the signal could have been triggered either by a micrometeorite impact or an electrostatic discharge. The discovery, detailed in a new preprint study, highlig...

Radio Signal from Early Universe May Reveal the Masses of the First Stars
- Sunday June 22, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A newly modelled 21-centimetre radio signal from hydrogen atoms just 100 million years after the Big Bang may reveal the mass of the universe’s first stars. Using REACH and the upcoming SKA telescopes, researchers aim to uncover how early starlight shaped cosmic evolution during the Cosmic Dawn, when the universe transitioned from darkness to lig...

Astronomers Discover Potential ‘Dark Galaxy’ Near the Milky Way
- Monday April 21, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have spotted a massive hydrogen cloud near the Milky Way that may be a rare dark galaxy—an object composed of gas and dark matter but lacking stars and light. Detected through radio telescopes, the galaxy-like structure challenges conventional astronomy and could reveal hidden phases of galaxy formation and dark matter interaction in ...

- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have detected mysterious fast radio bursts (FRBs) from the outskirts of an 11 billion-year-old dead galaxy. This discovery challenges the belief that FRBs primarily originate from young, star-forming galaxies. Researchers suspect the bursts may result from colliding stars or a collapsing white dwarf. The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mappi...
