Scientists Rule Out Elusive Sterile Neutrino After 10-Year Hunt, Shaking Particle Physics
After ten years of experiments, physicists found no evidence for the sterile neutrino, once thought to explain unusual neutrino behaviour. The MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab analysed neutrinos from two beams and ruled out the particle with 95% certainty. The findings narrow the search for new physics and inform future experiments like DUNE.

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS to Make Closest Approach to Earth on December 19
Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS will make its closest approach to Earth on Dec. 19, passing safely at a vast distance. Discovered by NASA-funded telescopes, the rare visitor offers scientists a valuable chance to study material formed around another star. Observations from space telescopes are expected to deepen understanding of interstellar objects.

James Webb Space Telescope Could Illuminate Dark Matter in an Unexpected Way
New research suggests the James Webb Space Telescope could help uncover the true nature of dark matter. By observing strange, elongated galaxies in the early universe, scientists believe JWST may reveal how dark matter shaped cosmic structure, offering clues that could narrow down long-standing theories about this invisible substance.

James Webb Space Telescope Could Help Reveal Dark Matter in a Way Scientists Did Not Anticipate
New research suggests the James Webb Space Telescope could help scientists understand dark matter by studying oddly shaped early galaxies. These elongated galaxies may form due to dark matter’s gravitational behaviour, offering indirect clues about whether ultralight or warm dark matter particles shaped the early universe.

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe Observes Solar Wind Making ‘U-Turn’, Shedding Light on Space Weather
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe captured solar wind reversing toward the sun, revealing how magnetic fields recycle coronal material. This process, seen during a close flyby, helps refine models of space weather and may allow scientists to better predict solar storms that can impact satellites, communications, and power systems across the solar system.

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Nears Earth on Dec. 19, Offering Rare Insights Into Cosmic Visitors
Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS will make its closest approach to Earth on Dec. 19. Observing the comet provides scientists a rare opportunity to study dust and gases from its icy nucleus and learn more about material forming around other stars, expanding understanding of interstellar objects while posing no threat to our planet.

ESA Reveals City-Size ‘Cosmic Butterfly’ Crater on Mars Containing Signs of Ancient Water
ESA has captured a city-sized butterfly-shaped crater on Mars with smooth wings likely formed by melted underground ice. Studying this rare structure helps scientists understand asteroid impacts, Mars’ surface ice, and the planet’s ancient watery past while offering insight into how unusual crater formations develop on the Red Planet.
