Astronomers unveil first direct image of young exoplanet just 63 light-years away
An international team of researchers has recently obtained the first direct image of the exoplanet Beta Pictoris c (B Pic c), confirming its existence since its indirect discovery in 2019. The “baby” exoplanet, which is estimated to be around 18 million years old, is the second planet known to orbit the star Beta Pictoris. The star […]

Shapeshifting robots straight out of sci-fi can be used to explore volcanoes and caves on Titan, Saturn’s moon
Engineers at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have found a way to help scientists gain access to worlds located in the depths of outer space: the Shapeshifter robot. Currently being tested in a robotics yard at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in California, the current Shapeshifter prototype, according to its engineers, can split […]

A closer look at the voids between galaxies: What’s going on in intergalactic space?
People tend to think of space as just an empty void in between galaxies, stars, planets and other celestial bodies. This “void,” however, actually contains more matter than the galaxies themselves. In between galaxies exists a matter called the intergalactic medium (IGM). This matter – composed mostly of hot, ionized hydrogen, with bits of heavier elements […]

Breakthrough in the search for extraterrestrial life as scientists discovered stars could host as many as 7 habitable planets
A recent study published in the Astronomical Journal found that as much as seven habitable planets could be orbiting a star, advancing the search for extraterrestrial life forms. The researchers noted that the absence of a gas giant such as Jupiter can mean more planets could have the favorable conditions to facilitate life. This factor could […]

Supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy emits mysterious burst of radiation, growing brighter
Scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have recorded a mysterious and unprecedented flash of light coming from the supermassive black hole at the heart of our galaxy. Known to scientists as Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), the black hole at the center of the Milky Way is relatively quiet. For the most part, Sgr A*’s activity […]

Astronomers discover and decode strange signals from a 3-body star system
Did you know that there has been an object in the Milky Way 500 light-years away that “blinks” at us daily? Now, astronomers have figured out the reason for this unusual signal. Called NGTS-7, this celestial object is part of binary system NGTS-7ABM, and appears to most telescopes as a single star. In 2019 however, […]

New gravitational-wave detectors can help researchers explore unsolved cosmic mysteries about black holes and dark matter
Astrophysicists from different institutions around the world look forward to the construction of various gravitational-wave detectors across the globe. These detectors are crucial to gathering data on cosmic phenomena occurring millions of light-years away from Earth. Researchers from the University of Maryland and Montana State University map out their history and contributions and published their study in […]

The universe is expanding too fast, admit baffled astronomers
American researchers made a startling discovery through NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope suggesting that the universe is expanding at a rate faster than previously thought. This new evidence, published in The Astrophysical Journal, suggests that scientists may have to reconsider what they know about the cosmos and develop new physics to better understand it. The researchers used the […]

Scientists develop Habitable Zone Planet Finder to help identify planets that orbit cool stars
A group of scientists from the Penn State University built a new astronomical spectrograph which provides precise infrared signals from nearby stars. This new technology, called the Habitable Zone Planet Finder (HPF), will allow scientists and astronomers to detect habitable planets well outside the solar system that have liquid water. The HPF is currently housed […]

Not as easy as in the movies: Scientists say blowing up asteroids that threaten life on Earth will be extremely difficult
Most Hollywood films that revolve around asteroid impacts end with the heroes successfully blowing up the incoming space rock in the nick of time. But researchers warn that a potential killer asteroid hurtling toward Earth is going to be much harder to stop in real life. Like many others before them, the Johns Hopkins University (JHU) looked […]
