Hubble Telescope Reveals Milky Way Blowing Gas off LMC Galaxy in Close Encounter
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured an extraordinary phenomenon as the Milky Way galaxy exerts ram pressure on the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), stripping away most of its gas halo. The interaction, which occurs as LMC passes near the Milky Way, has led to the loss of significant mass from the dwarf galaxy. Despite this, LMC retains enough...

NASA Rockets Create Artificial Clouds Under Northern Lights in Norway
On November 10, 2024, NASA conducted a rocket launch in Norway that resulted in swirling artificial clouds beneath the aurora borealis. The experiment aimed to study energy flow through Earth’s atmosphere and observe how gravity waves behave. The launch occurred from Andøya Space Center, located in the Arctic Circle, offering ideal conditions fo...

NASA’s Hubble Reveals Impact of Milky Way’s Gravitational Force on Large Magellanic Cloud
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope recently observed the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) interacting with the Milky Way’s halo. Researchers found that the LMC’s gas halo has been significantly reduced, likely due to ram-pressure stripping. Despite this, the LMC retains enough gas to continue star formation. Future studies will focus on exploring othe...

Study Finds Industrial Aerosols May Cause Local Snowfall by Freezing Clouds
A new study led by the University of Tartu has shown that industrial emissions, particularly aerosol particles, can influence local snowfall by triggering ice formation in supercooled clouds. Using satellite and ground-based radar observations, researchers found that factories, including cement plants and power stations, may cause localised snow pl...

NASA's Swift Observatory Discovers Twin Black Holes Disturbing Galactic Gas Clouds
NASA's Swift Observatory has recorded a unique signal from two orbiting black holes interacting with a gas cloud in a distant galaxy. This phenomenon, called AT 2021hdr, is marked by recurring gas disturbances due to the black holes' orbit, which astronomers believe could eventually lead to their merger. Observations continue, promising insights in...
