Dark Matter Might Leave A Faint Colour Mark In Light, Say Scientists
Dark matter, though invisible, might subtly alter the colour of light passing through it, according to a new University of York study. Researchers propose that weak particle interactions could create faint red or blue tints, offering a new path for future telescopes to detect dark matter indirectly.

Astronomers Detect Smallest Known Clump of Pure Dark Matter Using Gravitational Lensing
Astronomers using a global radio telescope array have detected the smallest known pure dark matter clump, roughly a million times the Sun’s mass. Found through a faint gravitational distortion in an Einstein ring, it offers new insight into how dark matter halos form across the universe.

James Webb Telescope Spots Evidence of a Black Hole Carving a Massive Scar Through a Galaxy
Astronomers using JWST and ALMA discovered a 20,000-light-year-long contrail in galaxy NGC 3627. Scientists believe it was carved by a massive black hole traveling through the galactic disk, leaving behind a turbulent scar of dust and gas that may offer new clues to galaxy evolution.

James Webb Space Telescope Detects Phosphine on Brown Dwarf Wolf 1130C
Using the James Webb Space Telescope, scientists have detected phosphine gas in the atmosphere of the brown dwarf Wolf 1130C, about 54 light-years away. The finding suggests phosphine can form in extreme, non-biological environments, challenging its status as a potential biomarker and reshaping how scientists search for alien life.

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS May Originate from Milky Way’s Hidden Frontier, New Study Suggests
A new study proposes that interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS may have originated in the thick disk region of the Milky Way, a lesser-known frontier beyond the spiral arms. Observations of its composition and trajectory support this possibility. Detailed telescopic messages from this visitor may help unravel the structure and evolution of our galaxy.

Tiny Asteroid 2025 TF Zooms Past Earth Undetected, Closer Than Satellites
A small asteroid named 2025 TF surprised astronomers after flying only 265 miles above Antarctica, lower than many satellites. Detected post-passage by ESA, it underscores the challenge of spotting small, fast-moving space rocks before they come close to Earth.

JWST Reveals Stunning New Details About M87’s Supermassive Black Hole Jet
Recent images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are the clearest ever pictures of the jet arriving from the massive black hole in the galaxy named Messier 87 (M87). There are clear details in the image shot by the telescope, which show the change of brightness, shape and the jet that is usually in disguise. As per scientists, this d...

James Webb Offers First Glimpse Into How Moons Are Built Around Distant Planets
The James Webb Space Telescope has detected carbon-bearing molecules in a moon-forming disk surrounding CT Cha b, a massive planet-like object orbiting a young star 625 light-years away. The discovery marks the first measurement of its kind and offers clues to how moons like those around Jupiter and Saturn might have formed.

Rubin Observatory Adopts New AI Algorithm to Enhance Cosmic Imaging
Scientists have developed ImageMM, an algorithm tested on Hawaii’s Subaru Telescope and soon to be used at the Rubin Observatory. The system reduces atmospheric blur, producing sharper images for studying galaxies and dark matter. Researchers believe the technique could make ground-based astronomy nearly as precise as space telescopes

James Webb Telescope Unveils Hidden Star-Forming Regions in Sagittarius B2
New JWST observations reveal the hidden star-forming activity inside Sagittarius B2, the Milky Way’s largest molecular cloud. By seeing through dense dust, astronomers can study how stars form efficiently in extreme environments. These findings help explain not only Sgr B2 but also broader mechanisms shaping galaxies.
