Hydrogen Gas Cloud Might Help Solve the Mystery of Missing Non-Dark Matter of the Universe
Ionized Hydrogen gas cloud is believed to have the missing matter of the universe, said scientists. This discovery, conducted by DESI, changed the perspective of black hole theory and is believed to switch on and off at its duty cycle. The scientists will further use new measurements in the existing models of the Universe.

NASA Hubble Space Telescope Helps Confirm the First Solitary Black Hole
In the Sagittarius constellation, a lone and first-ever solitary black hole has been discovered by a team of scientists. Although the discovery began in the year 2011, the observations have confirmed it recently. The size of this black hole is as massive as seven times of the sun. Despite the conflicts and differences of observations by another tea...

Hidden Solar Cycle Could Reshape Space Weather for the Next 50 Years, Finds Study
A hidden solar cycle is emerging, potentially intensifying space weather events over the next 50 years. While this cycle may raise concerns about geomagnetic storms and satellite disruptions, scientists believe it could also offer valuable opportunities to advance space weather forecasting, study Earth's magnetic field, and improve our resilience t...

Signs of Alien Life Detected on Nearby Exoplanet Using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope
Astronomers have detected possible biosignature gases, including dimethyl sulfide (DMS), in the atmosphere of exoplanet K2-18b using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. Located in the habitable zone, this “Hycean” world may host a vast ocean and a hydrogen-rich atmosphere, raising intriguing possibilities about alien life. Further research is ...

NASA Curiosity Rover Potentially Deciphers Mars’ Missing Carbonate Mystery
NASA’s Curiosity rover potentially ended the mystery of the ancient atmosphere and missing carbonates. The research uncovers the potential reasons behind the temperature of the planet Mars and how it has supported the liquid water on the planet. Explore the findings and the discoveries made by NASA’s Curiosity rover.

Scientists Reportedly Discover New Species of Marine Life on the Antarctic Ocean Floor
Strange underwater life ranging from hand-sized sea spiders to jelly-like sea pigs to a breeding sea butterfly has been found by Australian scientists investigating the Antarctic ocean floor. Taken aboard the RSV Nuyina icebreaker, these unusual species found at enormous depths provide understanding of life in one of the toughest places on Earth. S...

Astronomers Detect Methane in the Atmosphere of the Nearest T Dwarf Star to Earth
Astronomers have detected methane in the nearest known T dwarf, offering new insight into its atmospheric composition. The study further highlights that the carbon abundance in the planet is estimated to be -1.5 dex, while the effective temperature could be around 1,000 K. The author of the paper further revealed that the low metallicity of the T ...
