Rubin Observatory Discovers Fastest-Spinning Large Asteroid Ever Seen
- Sunday January 11, 2026
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers using the Vera C. Rubin Observatory have discovered asteroid 2025 MN45, the fastest-spinning large asteroid ever recorded. About 710 metres wide, the object completes one full rotation every 1.88 minutes—far quicker than any asteroid of similar size. The finding emerged from an early survey that detected nearly 2,000 new asteroids, in...

Rubin Observatory Captures Distant Nebulae From Chilean Mountaintop
- Friday June 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The Rubin Observatory has unveiled its first public images, revealing vivid views of the Lagoon and Trifid Nebulae located 4,000 light-years away. These stunning images mark the beginning of a decade-long sky survey that will capture thousands of nightly exposures, explore dark matter, and transform the way scientists—and the public—observe the...

Vera C. Rubin Observatory Unveils First Images, Hints at Universe’s Dynamic Secrets Ahead
- Wednesday June 25, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The Rubin Observatory’s first image captures 10 million galaxies, marking the start of a decade-long sky survey. With its powerful telescope and LSST camera, it will scan the southern sky every three nights, unveiling hidden galaxies, stellar nurseries, and transient cosmic events. Scientists anticipate transformative discoveries about dark matte...

Meteoroid Trails Could Help Detect Potentially Hazardous Comets Years in Advance
- Friday November 8, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Meteoroid trails from long-period comets could provide early warnings of potentially dangerous comets near Earth, giving planetary scientists time to prepare. By studying these trails, scientists can track the paths of rarely visible comets that could pose a risk of impact, helping prevent catastrophic events. With the upcoming Vera C. Rubin Observ...
