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 […]

Model for plasma flow on the Sun reveals secrets behind sunspots and other solar phenomena
Scientists have studied the Sun for a long time. But solar phenomena such as sunspots have remained a mystery. Researchers from the University of Washington attempted to solve the puzzle by creating a model of the Sun’s plasma flow. They showed that a thin layer beneath its surface plays a vital role in the formation of sunspots and other solar features. This […]

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 […]

The Sun once had a companion star, study suggests
The Sun was likely paired with another star, suggests a study published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters. This star has the same mass as the Sun and was born out of the same cloud of dust. It was separated from the Sun after being pulled by passing stars and could be anywhere in the Milky Way. Researchers from Harvard University explained […]

Space-time ripples could help scientists uncover exoplanets from other galaxies
Scientists detect exoplanets by analyzing light from the planets themselves or their stars. This method led to the discovery of thousands of worlds within the Milky Way, but none beyond the galaxy. That could change, suggests a recent study, with the use of gravitational waves – invisible ripples in space and time that travel at the speed of light. These waves […]

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 […]

Is the idea of meeting aliens really just science fiction? Expert lays his case to prove it’s NOT
Extraterrestrial life may just be around the corner. However, it probably won’t go down the same way science fiction depicts humanity’s first interaction with humans – an advanced and hostile spacefaring civilization looking to stomp on the primitive species from a backwater planet. Still, it does look like it’s going to happen soon in the […]

What you need to know about the Oort Cloud, a giant shell of icy bodies that encircle the solar system
Humans could one day develop sufficiently-advanced space travel that can reach other stars. As they leave Earth behind, those interstellar starships must pass through the Oort Cloud that encloses the solar system, an article in Space.com explained. This huge intrasolar shell is inhabited by numerous celestial bodies. Some of these frozen rocks can match the […]

Astronomers: ‘Oumuamua, our first known interstellar visitor, is a comet, after all
Scientists have recently confirmed that ‘Oumuamua (pronounced oh MOO-uh MOO-uh), the first known interstellar object to visit our solar system, is a comet after all. Discovered on October 19, 2017 by the University of Hawaii’s Pan-STARRS1 telescope, ‘Oumuamua baffled astronomers. Its strange, cigar-like shape, along with the absence of usual cometary activity had scientists wondering […]

Jupiter’s red spot: What’s inside the storm that’s “one-and-a-half Earth’s wide”
For the first time, the mysteries of Jupiter’s red spot are available. In the latest data gathered by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)’s first pass over Jupiter’s Great Red Spot in July 2017, experts have discovered that the solar system’s largest storm affects regions below it. NASA has released a computer-animated video based […]
