James Webb Space Telescope Spots Planet-Building Dust in the Butterfly Nebula
- Friday August 29, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The James Webb Space Telescope has unveiled stunning new details of the Butterfly Nebula, a planetary nebula 3,400 light-years away. Using its infrared vision, Webb detected crystalline silicates, large dust grains, and carbon-rich PAH molecules within the nebula’s dusty torus. These discoveries reveal how dying stars recycle minerals and organic...

James Webb Detects Carbon Dioxide–Dominated Coma in Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS
- Wednesday August 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The James Webb Space Telescope observed 3I/ATLAS, the third interstellar object detected in our solar system. Its coma is unusually rich in carbon dioxide with little water or carbon monoxide, suggesting a CO₂-rich core or an insulating crust. Findings raise new questions about its cosmic origin.

Astronomers Detect RBFLOAT, Brightest Fast Radio Burst Ever Observed
- Monday August 25, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
An international team of astronomers has detected RBFLOAT, the brightest fast radio burst (FRB) ever recorded, just 130 million light-years away in Ursa Major. Detected by CHIME in March 2025, the powerful radio flash was traced to galaxy NGC-4141. Follow-up imaging with the James Webb Space Telescope revealed a faint stellar source near the burst,...

James Webb Telescope Discovers Tiny New Moon Orbiting Uranus
- Saturday August 23, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A team from the Southwest Research Institute has discovered a tiny new moon orbiting Uranus using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. The moon, called S/2025 U1, is just 6 miles (10 kilometers) wide, too small for Voyager 2 to detect during its 1986 flyby. This discovery brings Uranus’s total known moons to 29, with S/2025 U1 orbiting 35,000 mil...

Earendel: JWST Suggests the Most Distant Star May Be a Star Cluster
- Thursday August 21, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Earendel, the farthest object ever seen, was first thought to be a single massive star from the early universe. New findings from JWST suggest it may instead be a star cluster, with many stars grouped together. Scientists used gravitational lensing to spot Earendel, which made its light appear thousands of times brighter.

James Webb Telescope Detects Potential Gas Giant Exoplanet Just 4 Light-Years Away
- Friday August 8, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers using JWST have spotted a possible gas giant orbiting Alpha Centauri A, only 4 light-years away. If confirmed, it would be the closest exoplanet to a Sun-like star ever imaged. The discovery could challenge current models of planetary formation in binary systems and open new opportunities for studying nearby worlds.

James Webb Space Telescope Reimagines Hubble’s Deep Field, Unveils Ancient Galaxies
- Tuesday August 5, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The James Webb Space Telescope has re-imaged part of Hubble’s Ultra Deep Field, revealing over 2,500 galaxies in stunning infrared detail. Using its NIRCam and MIRI instruments, Webb observed faint galaxies dating back to just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang. This is part of the JADES survey, which includes the deepest mid-infrared...

On October 9, 2022, astronomers detected GRB 221009A, the most powerful gamma-ray burst ever recorded, earning the nickname “BOAT” (Brightest Of All Time). This rare, once-in-10,000-year event came from a galaxy 2 billion light-years away and temporarily blinded gamma-ray detectors. It revealed new insights into stellar death, as the associated...
