Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS has 13 times more deuterium than a famous Solar System comet, hinting at its 7-billion-year-old origins before Sun was bornInterstellar object 3I/ATLAS may have formed more than 7 billion years before our Sun was born. A new study using NASA's James Webb Space T...
Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS: 3I/ATLAS may have come from a star system older than our sun, James Webb Telescope observations suggestRecent findings from the James Webb Space Telescope have unveiled intriguing chemical signatures surrounding the interstellar object 3I/ATL...
New study discovers Van Gogh's 'The Starry Night' is based on a real night in 1889, not his imagination: How did researchers date the sky in the iconic painting?Challenging long-standing notions, researchers from South Korea have uncovered new insights regarding Van Gogh's 'The Starry Night'. They p...
Green star discovery: Why astronomers are calling this strange cosmic object a ‘zombie’ after it began consuming planetary debrisAstronomers have uncovered a remarkable white dwarf star named WD J1330+6435, situated 326 light-years away from our planet. This celestial...
Astronomers find a ‘ghostly’ star glowing green and another possibly the reddest ever recordedAstronomers studying 151 stars near Earth found unusual colors in some white dwarfs. One white dwarf appeared green due to its atmospheric ...
Green stars existed only in comics. Now astronomers have found the first real one and the reddest star ever recordedAstronomers have unveiled an astonishing white dwarf star, WD J1330+6435, that shines with a distinctive green hue. Situated roughly 280 li...
Astronomers detect mysterious signal in empty space twice, leaving James Webb Telescope scientists searching for answersAstronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope noticed a bright signal in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. This mysterious signal was seen tw...
One of astronomy’s oldest suspected planetary systems has just undergone its most sensitive search yet and the biggest planets scientists might have expected to find are not thereAstronomers have conducted one of the most detailed searches yet for planets around 70 Ophiuchi AB, a binary system roughly 16 light-years ...
A hidden magnetic force from the early universe may finally explain the Hubble tension and why cosmic expansion doesn’t add upRecent research investigates the role of primordial magnetic fields in the discrepancy of the Hubble constant values. Measurements of the c...
In 2016, 10,000 volunteers searched images of Mars for strange spider-like patterns; they found the formations in places where scientists hadn't seen them beforeIn 2016, nearly 10,000 volunteers worked together to analyze images of Mars, identifying intriguing spider-like formations. Collaborating w...
Mysterious radio bursts detected 63 light-years from Earth, well beyond our solar system: What scientists discovered about its sourceA newly reported radio signature from Beta Pictoris b is giving astronomers a rare way to investigate the magnetic environment of a planet ...
A planet 63 light-years away is sending repeating radio bursts, and scientists can read them for the first time. Here’s what it reveals about the alien worldAstronomers detected repeating radio bursts from exoplanet Beta Pictoris b. These emissions originate from powerful auroras on the distant ...
Meet Julian Shapiro, the New York student who found 3 unusual dwarf galaxies and won $25,000Eighteen-year-old Julian Shapiro discovered three isolated dwarf galaxies that lack ongoing star formation, a puzzling combination for astr...
