Hubble Captures NGC 5643’s Spiral Arms, Star Formation, and Hidden Black Hole
The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured detailed images of the spiral galaxy NGC 5643, located 40 million light-years away. This grand design galaxy features striking spiral arms outlined by young blue stars and dust clouds, with star-forming regions visible as pinkish hues. Ultraviolet and X-ray studies have revealed an active galactic nu...

Itel S25 Ultra Price in India, Design, Specifications Leaked; Tipped to Get Unisoc T620 SoC, 5,000mAh Battery
Itel S25 Ultra 4G is expected to go official soon as its pricing details, key specifications, and design have surfaced online through alleged marketing images. The leaked promotional materials suggest three colour options for the phone. The Itel S25 Ultra 4G is seen carrying a triple camera unit on the rear and a hole punch cutout on the display.

India Unveils MACE Observatory, the World’s Highest Imaging Cherenkov Telescope
The Major Atmospheric Cherenkov Experiment (MACE) observatory has been inaugurated in Hanle, Ladakh, at an altitude of over 4,300 metres. This state-of-the-art facility will advance India's capabilities in cosmic-ray research and high-energy astrophysics. Inaugurated by Dr Ajit Kumar Mohanty, Secretary of the Department of Atomic Energy, the observ...

NASA Selects Two Astrophysics Mission Proposals for X-Ray and Far-Infrared Wavelength Observations
NASA has selected two mission proposals for further study, focusing on X-ray and far-infrared wavelengths to explore key cosmic phenomena. The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite, led by Christopher Reynolds, will investigate supermassive black holes and galaxy evolution. The Probe Far-Infrared Mission, led by Jason Glenn, will examine planetary forma...

Japan’s XRISM Telescope Delivers Insights from a Supermassive Black Hole and a Supernova
Less than a year since Japan's X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) launched, it has delivered its first results, uncovering crucial information about black holes and supernova remnants. XRISM is a collaborative effort between the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and the European Space Agency (ESA). Its observations have revealed...

James Webb Space Telescope Uncovers Surprising Dust Formation Near Supermassive Black Hole
James Webb Space Telescope images have uncovered an unexpected dust formation around a supermassive black hole, showing that gas collisions, not black hole radiation, heat the dust. This breakthrough by Newcastle University’s team challenges existing theories and offers new perspectives on galaxy evolution.

Scientists Unveil New, Improved 'Skinny Donut' Black Hole Image
The 2019 release of the first image of a black hole was hailed as a significant scientific achievement. But truth be told, it was a bit blurry - or, as one astrophysicist involved in the effort called it, a "fuzzy orange donut."

Supermassive Black Hole 33 Billion Times The Size Of Sun Discovered By UK Astronomers
Durham University scientists said this is one of the biggest ever black hole found.

A Unique Collaboration Using a Virtual Earth-Sized Telescope Shows How Science Is Changing in the 21st Century
In 2019, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration produced the first-ever image of a black hole, stunning the world. Now, scientists are taking it further. The next generation Event Horizon Telescope (ngEHT) collaboration aims to create high-quality videos of black holes.

Astronomers Spot Hot Gas Bubble Spinning Clockwise Around Milky Way Black Hole
Astronomers said Thursday they have spotted a hot bubble of gas spinning clockwise around the black hole at the centre of our galaxy at "mind blowing" speeds. The detection of the bubble, which only survived for a few hours, is hoped to provide insight into how these invisible, insatiable, galactic monsters work.

Bright Photon Ring Discovered in Remastered Image of Massive Black Hole: All Details
Researchers have discovered an image of a black hole in the M87 galaxy contains a photon ring that was not previously visible. The first-ever picture of a black hole was captured using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) in 2019. When a beam of light passes close to the black hole, it tends to change its direction due to the warping of spacetime. The...

Neutron Star Becomes Heaviest Celestial Object With 2.35 Times Mass of Sun
Researchers have recently observed a collapsed dense neutron star shredding and devouring its stellar companion to become one of the heaviest neutron stars ever spotted. The star has a mass 2.35 times that of the Sun and spins at a speed of 707 rounds per second. The finding may now give astronomers an insight into the weird quantum state of matter...

NASA's Hubble Captures Malnourished Black Hole at Core of Spiral Galaxy NGC 3147 in Draco Constellation
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has recently shared images of a spiral galaxy named NGC 3147. This majestic galaxy is located about 130 million light-years away in the constellation Draco, also called the "dragon". The image shows the galaxy's graceful, winding arms appear like a grand spiral staircase sweeping through space. In reality, these spiral...
