The shape of the Universe we live in has remained a huge debate among scientists. Researchers previously agreed that the Universe is shaped like a pancake. But a new study seems to counter these previous studies and suggested that we might be living in a Universe shaped like a doughnut. The new research finds that …
Landing humans on Mars will be the greatest accomplishment of human civilization in this century. However, we are not going to Mars to prove that we can actually attain such a feat. Instead, we are going to the red planet to unlock several potentials for mankind. One of these potentials is to test our powerful …
While we celebrate the previous discoveries of NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, the sophisticated space observatory just made another fascinating finding that amazes scientists. In its latest observation, JWST looked directly into the atmosphere of a massive exoplanet with two Suns and made the stunning discovery. The exoplanet is known as VHS 1256 b and …
After NASA completed its Artemis 1 uncrewed mission to the moon in December 2022, the space agency is already working towards its crewed Artemis 2 mission to the lunar orbit. The agency is looking at launching astronauts during its Artemis 2 mission to the moon as soon as 2024. NASA is planning to use a Space Launch …
Astronomers have earlier discovered that Uranus has 27 known moons around its orbit. A new study revealed that one/two of these moons of Uranus may have subsurface oceans that pump materials into space. NASA’s Voyager 2 spacecraft which passed the Uranian system around four decades ago discovered some features in radiation data it collected from …
While the progress made by Voyager 1 space probe has continued to amaze the world, a scientist just proposed a pellet-beam propulsion spacecraft that could easily cover Voyager 1 distance in only five years. Keep in mind that the Voyager 1 was launched in 1977 and explored the solar system for nearly 35 years before …

The International Space Station which has been operating in low Earth orbit since 1998 is getting closer to retirement as some of its parts are becoming weak to operate in space. NASA plans to safely retire the ISS by taking it out of its orbit via a controlled disintegration means into the Earth’s atmosphere. The …
Astronomers estimate that there are about 100 million black holes in the Milky Way galaxy alone. However, scientists spent years searching for the closest cosmic messy eater to our home planet. Astronomers recently used the International Gemini Observatory in Hawaii to discover the closest blackhole to Earth. This is the first time astronomers are discovering …

Humanity often makes great progress within a century. As of 1923, humans never believed that we will be able to land the first crew on the lunar surface as a liquid propulsion rocket was yet to be invented at that time. If you check the fascinating progress, we have made on lunar exploration between 1923 …

The International Astronomical Union (IAU) has studied the solar system carefully and declared that there are only eight planets in our star systems after dethroning Pluto to a dwarf planet in August 2006. Despite the official declaration of the IAU, some planetary scientists still hope that an extra planet was formed between Mars and Jupiter. This is …
