NASA Reveals Rapid X-Ray Fading In Young Stars Could Favour Life-Hosting Planets
The research team used additional data from the European Space Agency's Gaia satellite and ROSAT mission to identify stars in stellar clusters.

NASA's Astronomers Reveal Red Giant Stars May Destroy Their Own Planets
This extreme expansion poses a serious threat to nearby planets. For example, when the Sun becomes a red giant in about 5 billion years, it will likely swallow Mercury and Venus.

Exoplanets Explained: How Astronomers Find Worlds Orbiting Stars Beyond the Sun
Exoplanets are planets orbiting stars outside our solar system, hidden by stellar glare and detected indirectly. Astronomers identify them by tracking star wobbles or dips in brightness during planetary transits. NASA’s Kepler mission revealed thousands, with TESS now expanding the search. These discoveries confirm that planetary systems are abun...

UY Scuti Reigns as the Universe’s Biggest Known Star, but Its Crown May Be at Risk
UY Scuti, a red hypergiant about 1,700 times the Sun’s radius, is the universe’s largest known star. Nearly 5 billion suns could fit inside its volume, but rivals like NML Cygni and Westerlund 1-26 challenge its claim to the crown. Astronomers stress that size estimates carry large uncertainties, leaving the title of biggest star still conteste...

Hubble Discovers White Dwarf Merger Remnant with Unusual Carbon Signature
An international team of astronomers has discovered WD 0525+526, an unusual white dwarf about 128 light-years away, using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. Unlike typical white dwarfs, this star formed through a stellar merger and shows an unexpectedly high carbon content. With a mass of 1.2 Suns and a scorching surface temperature of 21,000 K, the ...

Scientists Detect Biggest Merger Of Two Black Holes In History
Scientists have detected the most massive merger of two black holes ever recorded for the first time in history.

Astronomers Discover 3I/ATLAS, Largest Interstellar Comet Yet Detected
Astronomers have discovered 3I/ATLAS, the third known interstellar comet to pass through our solar system. Detected by the ATLAS telescope in Chile, it’s racing inward at 150,000 mph and will swing closest to the Sun in October. Estimated to be 10–20 kilometers across, it is likely the largest interstellar object observed so far. Signs of comet...

Sun’s Magnetic Activity Is Making It Difficult to Gauge Its True Age, Study Finds
Astronomers have traditionally relied on helioseismology to estimate the Sun's age by analysing the vibrations that ripple through its interior. However, recent research has uncovered a significant obstacle, the Sun's magnetic activity, which follows an 11-year cycle, appears to be distorting these measurements. Data from the Birmingham Solar Oscil...

Sun's Magnetic Field May Originate Closer To Solar Surface: Study
The sun's magnetic field, which causes solar storms like the one that hit Earth this month and produced beautiful auroras, may originate at shallower depths in the star's interior than previously thought, according to researchers.

Sun-Like Star "Repeatedly Shredded, Consumed By Black Hole" Spotted By Astronomers
The star, known as Swift J0230, follows an elliptical orbit around a low-mass black hole situated at the centre of its galaxy.

First Ever View of the Milky Way Seen Through the Lens of Neutrino Particles
Data collected by an observatory in Antarctica has produced our first view of the Milky Way galaxy through the lens of neutrino particles. It’s the first time we have seen our galaxy “painted” with a particle, rather than in different wavelengths of light. The result, published in Science, provides researchers with a new window on the cosmos.
