Supercomputer Study Finds 97,000 Stable Orbits Between Earth and Moon
- Saturday February 21, 2026
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory simulated one million potential satellite orbits between Earth and the Moon to assess long-term stability. Fewer than 10% remained stable over six years, highlighting the challenges of operating in cislunar space. Yet the results identified roughly 97,000 viable orbits, offering valuable options ...

Scientists Discover High-Density Rocky Planet in LHS 1903 System That Defies Conventional Formation Models
- Wednesday February 18, 2026
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
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...

Venus May Hide a Vast Underground Tunnel Formed by Ancient Volcanic Eruptions, Scientists Say
- Wednesday February 11, 2026
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
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.

Is Space Sticky? New Study Challenges Standard Dark Energy Theory
- Sunday January 18, 2026
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
New observations from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument are challenging the standard Lambda-CDM model of cosmology. A recent, still-unpublished hypothesis suggests that space itself may behave like a slightly viscous or “sticky” fluid, subtly affecting how the universe expands. By introducing a ghostly resistance to cosmic growth, the mo...

Clocks on Mars Run Faster Than on Earth, New Study Finds
- Monday December 15, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
New research shows time on Mars runs faster than on Earth by 477 microseconds per day. The variation poses challenges for astronauts, navigation, and creating interplanetary communication networks. Scientists say understanding Martian time differences is key for future missions and testing Einstein’s relativity.

Uranus and Neptune May Be Rocky Worlds Not Ice Giants, New Research Shows
- Thursday December 11, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A new analysis challenges decades-old assumptions about Uranus and Neptune, revealing that both planets may contain far more rock than icy materials. These findings help explain their strange magnetic fields and show that traditional "ice giant" models may be incomplete. Scientists say only dedicated future missions can uncover the true interior ma...

Scientists Find Clock on Mars Runs 477 Microseconds Faster Than Earth
- Thursday December 4, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A new study by NIST physicists shows that clocks on Mars run about 477 microseconds faster per day than identical clocks on Earth. The difference comes from Mars’s weaker gravity, orbital eccentricity, and gravitational influences across the solar system. Though tiny, this daily time lead will pose challenges for future Mars navigation and commun...
