Astronomers Detect Bizarre Repeating Signals From Space — Unlike Anything Ever Seen Before
Astronomers have discovered a mysterious object, ASKAP J1832- ... emitting synchronized radio and X-ray pulses every 44 minutes. This unprecedented behavior challenges current astrophysical models and suggests the presence of previously unknown stellar processes.
Real-Life “Cosmic Joust” Discovered — Quasars And Black Holes Collide In A Scene Stranger Than Sci-Fi
Astronomers have observed a rare "cosmic joust" between two galaxies 11.4 billion light-years away, where a quasar's intense radiation disrupts star formation in its neighboring galaxy. This first-of-its-kind observation confirms theories about quasar feedback mechanisms, offering new insights into galaxy evolution and the dynamic processes of the early universe.
SpaceX Dragon Capsule’s Return to Earth Results in Sonic Boom Across Southern California
On May 24, 2025, SpaceX's Dragon capsule reentered Earth’s atmosphere, delivering a sonic boom across Southern California before splashing down near Oceanside. The uncrewed capsule had just completed a resupply mission to the ISS, returning 6,700 pounds of cargo. While many locals mistook the boom for an earthquake, NASA confirmed it was caused by the capsule’s high-speed descent—a safe and successful end to another groundbreaking commercial spaceflight.
The Debate Over AI Consciousness: Could Machines Ever Think Like Us? Check What Scientists and Thinkers Are Saying
As AI grows more advanced, experts are debating whether machines could one day achieve consciousness. While current AI lacks awareness, the conversation is sparking serious questions about ethics, science, and the future of human-machine relationships.
Space Smells Like Burnt Steak and Gunpowder – Why Astronauts Say ‘You’d Wish You Were Dead’?
Space smells like burnt steak and gunpowder — that’s what astronauts say after spacewalks. But the science behind the smell is surprisingly deep, tied to atomic oxygen, ozone, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. This article explores how space smells, why it matters, and what it teaches us about the cosmos.
Asteroid 2003 MH4: A 335-Meter Eiffel Sized Space Rock Approaches Earth at 50,400 km/h
Asteroid 2003 MH4, a massive 335-meter rock traveling at 50,400 km/h, passed safely by Earth on May 24, 2025. Though classified as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid, it posed no threat during this flyby. NASA tracked its trajectory closely, using it as a key data point for future planetary defense strategies. Learn what makes asteroids dangerous, how we monitor them, and what you can do to stay informed and prepared.
NASA Shares Rare View of the Sun Eclipsed by the Moon From Space
NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured a rare solar eclipse from space in April 2025. The image, showing the Moon covering nearly 23% of the Sun, reveals unique solar phenomena unseen from Earth and highlights the importance of space weather monitoring.
European Space Agency Sends Classical Music Into Space—Here’s Why
The European Space Agency is transmitting Johann Strauss II’s “The Blue Danube” into deep space to mark Strauss’s 200th birthday and ESA’s 50th anniversary. The broadcast aims to correct the omission of the iconic waltz from the Voyager Golden Record and celebrate the blend of science, music, and culture.
NASA Report Sparks Alarm as Scientists Warn of Rapid Ocean Expansion
NASA’s newest report shows global sea levels rose 0.23 inches in 2024 — significantly more than expected — due to warming waters and El Niño. Experts warn this acceleration threatens coastlines worldwide. Learn what’s causing the rise, who’s most at risk, and what can be done to protect our planet’s future.
