First Orbital Rocket Launch from Europe Fails as Spectrum Explodes Midair
The first-ever orbital rocket launch from European soil ended in failure as Isar Aerospace’s Spectrum crashed after liftoff from Norway’s Andøya Spaceport. The rocket experienced an anomaly 18 seconds into the flight, leading to a loss of control before it plummeted back to Earth and exploded. The test was conducted to gather data, and no payl...

New Seismic Data Challenges Earth's Inner Core Structure, Reveals Surprising Findings
Recent seismic data from 121 earthquakes recorded over three decades challenges previous beliefs about Earth's inner core. Researchers from the University of Southern California discovered structural changes in the core, suggesting it may not be as solid as once thought. These anomalies, observed while studying the core's slowing rotation, could of...

Weak Gravitational Lensing Examines Universe’s Structure: What You Need to Know
The universe's large-scale uniformity is under scrutiny through weak gravitational lensing. Researchers are analysing data from the Euclid Space Telescope to detect potential anisotropies in cosmic expansion. If confirmed, these findings could challenge the fundamental Cosmological Principle, which assumes the universe has no preferred direction. T...

New Cosmic Surveys Reveal Unexpected Clues About Universe’s Evolution
A new study published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics reveals a potential discrepancy in the expected clumpiness of cosmic structures. Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory analysed data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) and the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (...

Scientists Uncover 'Sunken Worlds' Deep in Earth’s Mantle, Defying Geological Expectations
A new study has uncovered unusual anomalies deep within Earth's mantle, resembling sunken crustal slabs in unexpected locations. Using advanced full-waveform inversion, scientists were able to map these structures, revealing hidden patterns that challenge current geological understanding. These anomalies were discovered far from tectonic activity z...

Researchers Question Authenticity of Mosasaur Fossil in Morocco Mine
The discovery of a mosasaur fossil in a phosphate mine in Morocco has raised concerns over its authenticity. Initially described in 2021 as a new species, Xenodens calminechari, the fossil included a jawbone and sharp teeth, leading researchers to claim its uniqueness. However, new findings have prompted skepticism, particularly regarding the struc...

Skull Found in Turkey Identified as 11-Year-Old Boy, Not Cleopatra's Sister Arsinoë IV
The skull discovered in 1929 at the Octagon building in Ephesus has been identified as that of an 11-year-old boy, debunking theories linking it to Cleopatra’s half-sister, Arsinoë IV. Published in Scientific Reports, the findings used DNA analysis and CT scans to confirm the boy’s age and gender, ruling out Arsinoë as a candidate. Anomalies ...

NASA Parker Solar Probe Makes Closest-Ever Approach to the Sun, Becomes Fastest Object Built by Humans
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe made its closest-ever approach to the Sun on Tuesday, becoming the first man-made object to accomplish this feat. Parker should have travelled as close as 6.1 million kilometres to the Sun, gathering important data about its outer atmosphere. The confirmation about these feats should arrive by December 27, as the space a...

NASA Finds Black Hole Rotating at Unexpected Angle in NGC 5084 Galaxy
NASA researchers have uncovered a black hole in the NGC 5084 galaxy that rotates at an unexpected angle, revealed through re-analysed Chandra X-ray data. The black hole is surrounded by unusual X-shaped plasma plumes, indicating disruptions in the galaxy's past. A tipped dusty disk further supports this, confirming the black hole's unique sideways ...

Scientists Puzzled by a Strange Dark Spot Fading on Saturn’s Moon Enceladus
A mysterious dark spot on Saturn's moon Enceladus has baffled scientists after it faded over several years. Discovered through NASA’s Cassini mission, the spot's sudden disappearance raises questions about the moon's geology. Experts have ruled out shadows and image artefacts, suggesting that the feature could be the result of an impact or a depo...
