Astronomers Stunned As Rogue Planet Grows At Record Speed
The object, known as Cha 1107-7626, lies about 620 light-years away and is estimated to be five to ten times the mass of Jupiter.

Black Hole Tears Star Apart, Sends Out Powerful Flares Six Months Later
Astronomers detected a black hole 650 million light-years away devouring a star and then erupting twice with powerful flares months later. Observed by the Zwicky Transient Facility and tracked by ALMA and the VLA, this rare off-centre event hints at a rogue black hole cast out from its host galaxy.

Astronomers Spot Rapidly Growing Rogue Planet Feeding on Surrounding Gas
Astronomers have discovered that Cha 1107-7626, a rogue planet 620 light-years away, is now the fastest-growing planet ever observed. The massive world consumes six billion tonnes of gas per second, a rate never before recorded. The findings suggest rogue planets can grow in star-like ways, reshaping how scientists view free-floating planetary obje...

Astronomers Stunned By Rogue Planet As It Acts Like Star, Grows At Record Rate
Cha 1107-7626's behaviour blurs lines between planets and stars.

Strange 'Rogue' Planet Spotted Guzzling Matter Like A Star
A mysterious "rogue" planet has been observed gobbling six billion tonnes of gas and dust a second -- an unprecedented rate that blurs the line between planets and stars, astronomers said.

JWST Delivers First-Ever Weather Report of Rogue Brown Dwarf World Glowing With Auroras
Astronomers using JWST have delivered the first weather report of SIMP-0136, a rogue brown dwarf about 20 light-years away. The study revealed stable silicate clouds, auroras heating the upper atmosphere, and possible giant storm systems. Findings mark a breakthrough in studying alien weather and pave the way for mapping exoplanet climates.

Astronomers Discover Rogue Black Hole Racing Through a Distant Dwarf Galaxy
Astronomers have discovered a rogue intermediate-mass black hole speeding through a dwarf galaxy 230 million light-years away. Unlike typical galactic centres, this displaced object is accreting material and blasting out jets, suggesting black holes can grow “offsite”. The finding offers rare evidence of elusive intermediate black holes and may...

Could a Planet Exist Without a Host Star? Astronomers Say Rogue Worlds May Roam Freely
Astronomers have discovered that planets can survive without stars, drifting as rogue or hypervelocity worlds. Some are flung into space by black holes, while others are displaced by gas giants. On some of these rogue worlds, the idea goes, there might be oceans beneath icy crusts, where life, at least life at a microbe level, could exist.

Google AI Chatbot Gemini Has A Meltdown After Failing Task, Tells User "I Am A Disgrace"
Google's generative artificial intelligence chatbot, Gemini, is apparently capable of getting depressed and having a total meltdown.

Scientists Explore Role of Space Radiation in Powering Alien Microbial Life
A new study proposes that life may exist far from sunlight in a “radiolytic habitable zone” deep beneath the icy surfaces of Mars, Europa, and Enceladus. Cosmic rays, which can penetrate rock and ice, break water molecules apart to release hydrogen, oxygen, and energy-rich electrons. These can fuel microbes in subsurface water, much like bacter...

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.
