Astronomers Capture First-Ever Image of a Dead Star That Exploded Twice in Rare Supernova Event
- Saturday July 5, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have captured the first-ever image of a white dwarf star undergoing a rare double-detonation supernova. Using the Very Large Telescope, the team revealed that such explosions can occur without a star reaching the Chandrasekhar limit. The findings, published in Nature Astronomy, could reshape existing theories about stellar death and imp...

Webb Telescope Spots Possible Jellyfish Galaxy 12 Billion Light-Years Away
- Thursday July 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have identified a possible jellyfish galaxy about 12 billion light-years away. Named COSMOS2020-635829, it shows tentacle-like streams of gas and stars trailing off one side—likely formed through ram pressure stripping in a dense cluster. If confirmed, it would be the most distant jellyfish galaxy ...

James Webb Telescope Captures First Direct Image of Saturn-Mass Exoplanet
- Friday June 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has reached a major milestone by capturing its first direct image of TWA 7 b, a newly discovered Saturn-mass exoplanet orbiting the young star TWA 7. Using a coronagraph to block starlight, Webb identified the planet embedded in the star’s dusty ring system. TWA 7 b is the smallest exoplanet ever imaged dir...

Dead NASA Satellite Relay 2 May Have Caused Mysterious 2024 Radio Burst
- Friday June 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
In June 2024, a mysterious 30-nanosecond radio burst baffled scientists — until they traced it back to a surprising source: Relay 2, a NASA satellite offline since 1967. Researchers believe the signal could have been triggered either by a micrometeorite impact or an electrostatic discharge. The discovery, detailed in a new preprint study, highlig...

James Webb Telescope Spots Planet Formation in Harshest Known Galactic Environments
- Sunday June 22, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed that planets can form in extreme radiation zones. A protoplanetary disk called XUE 1, exposed to intense ultraviolet light, still shows signs of water and potential for rocky planet formation. The findings challenge old assumptions and broaden the possible regions where Earth-like planets may emerge.
