The movement of the solar system through the Orion star-forming complex around 14 million years ago may have influenced Earth’s climate, according to scientists. This dense region of space, part of the Radcliffe Wave galactic structure, could have compressed the… Read More »Solar System’s Journey Through Orion Complex May Have Altered Earth’s Climate
The asteroid once considered the most significant impact risk in recorded history has been reclassified as non-threatening. Newly gathered data has confirmed that asteroid 2024 YR4 now has no chance of colliding with Earth. The risk, which had previously been… Read More »NASA Confirms Asteroid 2024 YR4 Will Not Hit Earth, Risk Reduced to Zero
The supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way has been observed emitting continuous flares, as revealed by recent astronomical observations. The activity, detected using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), has been noted to occur across various… Read More »James Webb Space Telescope Captures Sagittarius A Emitting Continuous Flares in Milky Way’s Core
The ancient Rujm el-Hiri site, situated in the Golan Heights and often referred to as the “Wheel of Ghosts,” has been re-evaluated, with its long-standing identification as an astronomical observatory coming under scrutiny. Researchers have determined that geodynamic changes over… Read More »Is the Wheel of Ghosts an Ancient Observatory? New Study Suggests Otherwise
Supermassive black holes are believed to exist at the centre of most galaxies, including our Milky Way. However, in certain cases, two such black holes are thought to orbit one another, forming binary systems. These gravitationally bound pairs could provide… Read More »Astronomers Seek Binary Supermassive Black Holes in Galactic Centers
New research on PDS 70b, a forming exoplanet located approximately 400 light-years away in the constellation Centaurus, suggests that prevailing models of planet formation may require revision. According to a study published in Astrophysical Journal Letters, astronomers found a mismatch… Read More »New Study Challenges Planet Formation Models with PDS 70b’s Chemical Mystery
