A Planet with a Death Wish: How HIP 67522 b Is Forcing Its Star to Explode
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
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...

Trump's Big Bill Cuts Clean Energy Tax, Residential Solar To Get Hit Fast
The bill in the Housetakes anaxto clean energy incentives, including killing a 30% tax credit for rooftop residential solar by the end of the year that the Biden administration'sInflation Reduction Acthad extended into the next decade.

NASA CODEX Telescope on ISS Reveals Hidden Secrets of the Sun’s Corona
NASA has introduced CODEX, a cutting-edge mini solar telescope attached to the International Space Station, which is offering groundbreaking observations of the Sun's corona. Unlike past instruments, CODEX can measure both temperature and speed of solar wind particles. This innovation aims to improve our understanding of solar weather, especially a...

Astronomers Discover Baby Planets Taking Their First Steps in Nearby Stellar Nursery
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...

Two Spacecraft Recreate Artificial Solar Eclipses to Observe the Sun’s Superhot Corona
Twin satellites in ESA’s Proba-3 mission have successfully recreated artificial solar eclipses from space to examine the sun’s million-degree corona. The breakthrough will allow continuous observations of the sun’s outer atmosphere, offering rare insights that natural eclipses on Earth can’t provide. The mission marks a major step in solar ...

Massive X-Class Solar Flare Erupts, Causing Widespread Pacific Radio Blackouts
A powerful X1.9-class solar flare from sunspot 4114 erupted on June 19, disrupting shortwave radio signals across the Pacific, including Hawaii. While it caused significant atmospheric ionisation, no coronal mass ejection (CME) followed. The event highlights rising solar activity and hints at more eruptions ahead, potentially impacting communicatio...

Scientists Spotted the Largest Comet Lying in the Solar System’s Outskirts with Outbursting Gases
NASA confirms comet C/2014 UN271, the largest known from the Oort Cloud, is chemically active. Detected by ALMA from far beyond Neptune, the comet’s carbon monoxide jets offer rare insights into icy body chemistry and early solar system conditions.
