The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed new and unexpected details about the atmosphere of the distant exoplanet 55 Cancri e, a rocky world classified as an ultra-hot super-Earth located approximately 41 light-years from Earth. The planet, first discovered in 2004, is roughly twice the size of Earth......
Astronomy enthusiasts around the world are expected to witness several notable celestial events in July, including lunar alignments, a full moon phase, and a meteor shower, according to astronomical observations. One of the most striking events will occur on July 17, when a crescent Moon illuminated......
Astronomers have identified the source of unusual X ray emissions from gamma Cassiopeiae, resolving a scientific mystery that has persisted for nearly five decades. Observations from the XRISM space telescope show that a hidden white dwarf companion is responsible for the high energy radiation, ending......
A new astronomical instrument under construction in the mountains of Chile is set to become the largest lens based telescope array ever built. Known as MOTHRA, the Modular Optical Telephoto Hyperspectral Robotic Array will combine 1,140 Canon telephoto lenses to observe extremely faint structures in......
Astronomical calculations suggest that the holy month of Ramadan is expected to begin around February 19, 2026, in Morocco and in many other countries that rely on the visual sighting of the new moon to mark the start of lunar months. According to forecasts released by the International Astronomy Center,......
A Harvard astrophysicist has called for a worldwide early-warning system to spot high-speed visitors from beyond our solar system, spurred by unusual traits in the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS. Discovered in July 2025 as it streaked through our cosmic neighborhood, the comet's peculiarities have prompted......
The James Webb Space Telescope has unveiled groundbreaking observations of the early universe, spotlighting a massive galaxy starved by its own supermassive black hole, unusual cosmic dust in a primitive dwarf galaxy, and a puzzling new class of galaxies that defy standard classifications. Researchers......
Recent triumphs by SpaceX's Starship and Blue Origin's New Glenn rockets have ignited optimism among astronomers for an accelerated rollout of affordable next-generation space telescopes. These milestones could fill a looming gap in orbital observations years ahead of schedule, as NASA grapples......
The Hubble Space Telescope has captured rare and detailed images of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, revealing two opposing jets of gas and dust that alternate in brightness in a puzzling rhythmic pattern. This phenomenon, never before observed in such a form, has raised new questions about how interstellar......
