New Study Models How Interstellar Objects Could Approach and Impact Earth
A new study simulating billions of hypothetical interstellar objects finds that potential Earth-crossing bodies would most likely arrive from the solar apex and the galactic plane. The research highlights relative approach patterns rather than predicting real impacts. Scientists emphasise that known visitors like ‘Oumuamua and Borisov pose no dan...

Fermi Telescope Detects Gamma-Ray Halo That Could Be First Direct Dark Matter Signal
NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has detected a faint halo of high-energy gamma rays around the Milky Way’s centre—matching predictions for dark-matter annihilation. The finding, reported by Professor Tomonori Totani, could represent the first direct glimpse of dark matter, but scientists caution that alternative explanations remain and...

Scientists Finally Identify What Drives Venus’s Fast Winds
A new study has identified the primary force behind Venus’s extreme superrotating atmosphere: a once-per-day thermal tide driven by solar heating. Using data from Venus Express and Akatsuki along with circulation models, researchers show that this daily tide transports most of the momentum that accelerates cloud-top winds to speeds over 100 metre...
