Black holes and cosmic jets join forces to shape galaxies
Indian astronomers have discovered how supermassive black holes and their powerful jets regulate galaxy growth by halting star formation. These cosmic engines expel gas, preventing new stars from igniting. The study, using data from US telescopes, reveals that galaxies with radio jets exhibit significantly faster and more energetic gas outflows, crucial for understanding galaxy evolution.
Renowned physicist Michio Kaku predicts astronomers may soon determine if interstellar object 3I/ATLAS is natural or artificial. By late October 2025, its solar encounter could reveal unusual energy gains, hinting at intelligent guidance. This potential discovery, reminiscent of 'Oumuamua, could be the first tangible sign of extraterrestrial technology, redefining humanity's cosmic place.
Astronomers worldwide are intensely studying 3I/ATLAS, a mysterious interstellar object entering our solar system. Its unusual speed, composition, and trajectory defy conventional understanding, prompting a global observation campaign. Scientists are exploring possibilities, including signs of alien technology, as this rare visitor approaches Earth and the Sun, potentially reshaping our scientific knowledge.
US startup plans to launch 4,000 giant mirrors into space and the reason might surprise you
A California startup plans to launch thousands of giant mirrors into orbit to bounce sunlight back to Earth after dark, creating light on demand. While proponents cite benefits for energy and agriculture, scientists warn of catastrophic light pollution, disrupting wildlife and astronomical observations. The project faces significant environmental and scientific concerns.
Earth on high alert: Solar storm that devastated Venus could hit us next
A powerful solar storm recently struck Venus, stripping its atmosphere due to the lack of a magnetic field. While Earth was spared this time, scientists warn this is a precursor to increased solar activity as the Sun nears its peak. This event, observed by the Parker Solar Probe, highlights the potential for future disruptions to Earth's power grids and communications.
New Super-Earth just 18 light-years away sparks hope for life beyond our solar system
Astronomers have found GJ 251 c, a rocky planet. It is a super-Earth located only 18 light-years away. This planet is in its star's habitable zone. This means liquid water could exist there. The discovery brings the search for life beyond our solar system closer. Future telescopes will study GJ 251 c for signs of life.
Astronomers confirmed the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS is approaching Earth, sparking public interest and comparisons to Nostradamus' prophecies. While scientists assure no threat, its unusual features and trajectory fuel speculation about cosmic mysteries and ancient predictions. This rare visitor offers a unique opportunity to study objects from beyond our solar system, enhancing our understanding of the universe.
A newly discovered asteroid, 2025 SC79, is drawing global attention due to its unusual orbit inside Venus's path and its rapid 128-day solar circuit. This 'twilight' asteroid, roughly 700 meters across, is difficult to detect due to the Sun's glare, highlighting the challenges of monitoring near-Sun objects and their potential impact risks.
Can yeast survive on Mars? IISc, Isro scientists find promising clues
India's Gaganyaan human spaceflight mission is almost complete. ISRO has achieved 90 percent development for sending astronauts into space.
