Clouds Formation

NASA’s Juno probe captured vibrant, high-contrast images of Jupiter’s stormy atmosphere and an up-close view of its moon, Amalthea, during the spacecraft’s 66th flyby on October 23. The images were processed by citizen scientists, enhancing the colours to showcase Jupiter’s unique cloud formations and highlighting details of Amalthea agains...

Microplastics, the tiny pieces of plastic smaller than 5 millimetres have been spotted in nearly every nook and cranny of our planet.

The James Webb Space Telescope has possibly identified brown dwarfs beyond the Milky Way for the first time, offering new insights into how stars formed in the early universe. Located in the star cluster NGC 602 within the Small Magellanic Cloud, these “failed stars” may help explain star formation under early cosmic conditions. This discovery,...

For the first time, astronomers have detected brown dwarfs outside the Milky Way in the star cluster NGC 602, situated approximately 200,000 light-years away in the Small Magellanic Cloud. Utilising the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the team sought young brown dwarf candidates in an environment that resembles the early universe, with limited h...

Despite its thin atmosphere composed primarily of carbon dioxide, Mars can produce striking cloud formations when conditions are right,

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has made a significant discovery with its latest image of the Serpens Nebula, taken on June 20, 2024. This image showcases aligned protostellar outflows—jets of gas expelled by newborn stars—all pointing in the same direction. Serpens Nebula, a reflection nebula, reflects light from nearby stars rather than e...

Warming of the Arabian Sea is allowing the formation of deep cloud systems, leading to extremely heavy rainfall in Kerala in a shorter period and increasing the possibility of landslides, a senior climate scientist said today.

While the upcoming total solar eclipse is a special moment to reflect on our place in the universe, scientists have been studying the birth of the sun and the formation of our solar system for a long time.

Dust particles from river deltas can more potently influence ice formation in clouds than those from deserts, researchers have found.

The video of the spectacular cloud formation attracted a lot of interest on social media.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth’s world will offer a ‘high degree of freedom,’ as per game director Naoki Hamaguchi on Twitter. It is the second entry in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake project, picking up right after Cloud and his gang left the walls of Midgar, arriving at the quaint village of Kalm. While his comment does not explicitly confirm an ope...

A rare cloud formation resembling an unidentified flying object (UFO) was spotted floating over Bursa, Turkey, on Thursday morning.

NASA states that as stars form, they collect gas and dust from the surrounding molecular cloud, "which appears as ribbons in Webb imagery."

The rare wave-shaped clouds, known as Kelvin-Helmholtz instability waves were spotted and photographed by Rachel Gordon, who later shared the picture on Facebook.
