Astronomers Observe Rare Supernova–Black Hole Interaction in Early Stages
In a groundbreaking discovery, astronomers observed SN 2023zkd, a supernova that may have been triggered by close interaction with a black hole. Featuring unusual brightness peaks and extended pre-explosion activity, the event offers new insights into star black hole dynamics. Real-time AI detection played a key role, and upcoming surveys promise t...

Doomed Exoplanet TOI-2109b Spirals Toward Its Star with Three Possible Fates
The gas giant TOI-2109b, over five times Jupiter’s mass, is spiraling closer to its star in a rare planetary death spiral. With a 16-hour orbit and blistering heat, the exoplanet could either plunge into its host star, be torn apart by tidal forces, or evolve into a rocky super-Earth through photoevaporation. NASA’s TESS and ESA’s Cheops data...

Earth’s Spin to Speed Up Briefly, Causing Shorter Days This Summer
Scientists report that Earth will briefly spin faster on July 9, 22, and August 5, shortening those summer days by 1.3 to 1.5 milliseconds. Though undetectable in daily life, this shift offers clues to how lunar gravity and seasonal changes affect planetary dynamics. Experts note that while timekeeping systems like GPS are unaffected, this rare spe...

Astronomers Discover Most Powerful Cosmic Explosions Since the Big Bang
Astronomers have discovered extreme nuclear transients — rare and powerful explosions caused by stars being torn apart by supermassive black holes. These events, brighter and longer-lasting than supernovae, were observed using data from Gaia and ZTF. As the most energetic cosmic outbursts since the Big Bang, they offer valuable insights into blac...

Einstein Probe Detects Mysterious X-ray Flare with Record-Long Emission
An international team of astronomers has detected a peculiar fast-evolving X-ray transient, EP241021a, using China’s Einstein Probe. Unveiled in a May 12 arXiv paper, this transient stood out due to its long-lasting emissions lasting over 79 days—unprecedented among FEXTs. EP241021a also produced optical and radio emissions, suggesting a multi-...

Hubble Captures First-Ever Rogue Black Hole Devouring a Star Outside Galactic Core
Astronomers led by Dr. Yuhan Yao have discovered the first offset tidal disruption event (TDE), where a rogue black hole outside a galaxy's core ripped apart a star. Spotted by the Hubble telescope and Zwicky Transient Facility, this marks historic evidence of a wandering supermassive black hole in action.

What Happens if You're Struck By A Tiny Black Hole? Study Reveals Shocking Details
A recent study explores the effects of tiny black holes on the human body, finding that while tidal forces would cause local damage, shock waves could be deadly, but the likelihood of being struck is incredibly low.

JWST Unveils HH 30’s Protoplanetary Disk, Showing Dust Grains and Jets
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured an extraordinary image of HH 30, a protoplanetary disk in the Taurus constellation. The dense dust disk conceals the central star, while bright jets extend outward, interacting with surrounding gas. Microscopic dust grains within the disk have been identified, playing a crucial role in planetary formation...
