NASA’s Space Telescope Live provides an interactive way to explore the most accurate, up-to-date, publicly available information on current, past, and upcoming observations by NASA’s…
Recent findings show some white dwarf stars halt their cooling due to gravitational energy release, overturning the belief that these stars are simply cooling remnants…
A team of scientists has successfully mimicked black hole conditions by creating a quantum vortex in superfluid helium, shedding light on gravitational interactions and quantum…
The James Webb Space Telescope’s discovery of early galaxies with massive black holes challenges traditional galaxy formation theories, proposing a synchronous development of black holes…
Scientists have identified persistent radio bursts from the Sun similar to Earth’s auroras, opening new research avenues in solar and stellar phenomena. A NASA-funded team…
The study of “exoplanets,” the sci-fi-sounding name for all planets in the cosmos beyond our own solar system, is a pretty new field. Mainly, exoplanet…
New research reveals that white dwarf stars stop cooling due to floating crystals in their interior, offering insights into stellar aging processes. In a paper…
The new map includes around 1.3 million quasars from across the visible universe and could help scientists better understand the properties of dark matter. Astronomers…
