JWST Reveals Pluto’s Haze Cools Atmosphere, Paints Charon’s Poles Red
Pluto's thin haze of organic particles, confirmed by JWST’s mid-infrared observations, plays a crucial role in both cooling its mesosphere and launching methane into space. This methane escapes Pluto’s gravity, landing on Charon’s poles where radiation transforms it into reddish tholins. The study highlights how Pluto’s haze shapes not only...

New Island Forms in Caspian Sea as Water Levels Drop, Russian Scientists Confirm
Russian scientists have verified the existence of a new island in the northern Caspian Sea, first spotted via satellite in late 2024. Located 30 km from Maly Zhemchuzhny Island, the islet appeared as sea levels reached historic lows due to climate change and tectonic shifts. Although researchers couldn’t land due to shallow water, drone images ...

NASA Study Confirms Solar Storms Prematurely Ended Starlink Satellite's Lifespan
A recent study, backed by NASA, reveals that solar storms are causing Starlink satellites to reenter Earth's atmosphere much faster than anticipated. Analysing data from hundreds of Starlink deorbit events between 2020 and 2024, researchers found that heightened geomagnetic activity drastically increases atmospheric drag, leading to quicker orbital...

AI Reveals Mars’s Mysterious Slope Streaks Likely Formed by Dust, Not Water Activity
An AI-based study has found that Mars’s mysterious dark slope streaks are likely formed by dust and wind, not flowing water as long believed. Based on an analysis of over 86,000 satellite images, the findings challenge past theories and may help scientists focus future Mars missions on more promising areas in the search for ancient life.
