Chandra Detects Giant X-Ray Bubble Around Young Sun-Like Star HD 61005
NASA astronomers using the Chandra X-ray Observatory have discovered a vast, million-degree gas bubble surrounding HD 61005, a 100-million-year-old Sun-like star about 120 light-years away. Its stellar wind is far stronger than today’s solar wind, forming a 200 astronomical unit-wide astrosphere that offers rare insight into how the young Sun onc...

Astronomers Find ‘Impossible’ Galaxy ACDG-2 With Virtually No Stars and a Massive Dark Matter Core
Astronomers have identified CDG-2, a faint galaxy in the Perseus cluster that appears to be composed almost entirely of dark matter. Located 300 million light-years from Earth, it was discovered by tracking globular star clusters using data from Hubble, Euclid, and Subaru telescopes. Scientists estimate that about 99% of its total mass is dark matt...

"LLMs Necessary But India Must Focus On Enterprise AI": Ajai Chowdhry To NDTV
India should strive to occupy the AI-for-enterprise space, which will help in areas like drug discovery and bring down research times and prices, Ajai Chowdhry, the Chairman National Quantum Mission of India's Mission Governing Board, said.

Scientists Discover High-Density Rocky Planet in LHS 1903 System That Defies Conventional Formation Models
ESA’s CHEOPS mission has uncovered a surprising rocky planet at the outer edge of the LHS 1903 system. Located 116 light-years away, the discovery defies expectations that outer planets are gas giants. Scientists say the finding offers rare evidence that planets can form in gas-depleted environments, challenging current planetary formation models...

Scientists Create Sound-Floating "Time Crystal" That Defies Newton's Third Law Of Motion
According to the team, this discovery not only advances understanding of time crystals but could also help understand natural processes like circadian rhythms.

Scientists Identify Rare Black Hole Merger in the Early Universe Using Gravitational Mapping
Astronomers have identified two merging supermassive black hole systems named Gondor and Rohan using a new method combining quasars and gravitational wave background signals. The discovery offers a fresh way to map black hole mergers and understand galaxy evolution and cosmic gravitational waves in a clearer and more systematic manner.

Unique Inside-Out Planetary System Reveals Unexpected Rocky World on the Outer Edge
Astronomers have discovered a rare inside-out planetary system around LHS 1903, where a rocky planet exists beyond gas giants. Using ESA’s CHEOPS telescope, researchers found evidence that planets formed one after another in a gas-depleted environment, challenging long-standing theories about how planetary systems form and evolve across the galax...

Astronomers Witness Rare Failed Supernova in Andromeda Galaxy
NASA’s NEOWISE infrared telescope has provided striking evidence that a massive star in the Andromeda galaxy collapsed directly into a black hole without exploding as a supernova. The star, M31-2014-DS1, faded dramatically in visible light while leaving a faint infrared glow from surrounding dust. Astronomers say this rare “failed supernova” ...

Venus May Hide a Vast Underground Tunnel Formed by Ancient Volcanic Eruptions, Scientists Say
Scientists analysing NASA’s Magellan radar data have identified signs of a vast underground lava tunnel on Venus. If confirmed, it would be only the second such structure found on the planet, challenging the belief that Venus is geologically inactive and opening new possibilities for studying its volcanic past.

Chandra Detects Giant X-Ray Bubble Around Young Sun-Like Star HD 61005
NASA astronomers using the Chandra X-ray Observatory have discovered a vast, million-degree gas bubble surrounding HD 61005, a 100-million-year-old Sun-like star about 120 light-years away. Its stellar wind is far stronger than today’s solar wind, forming a 200 astronomical unit-wide astrosphere that offers rare insight into how the young Sun onc...
