Partial Solar Eclipse of March 2025: Satellite Images to Show Moon’s Shadow
- Saturday March 29, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A partial solar eclipse will take place on March 29, 2025, visible across parts of Europe, Africa, and North America. The event will reach its peak in Nunavik, Canada, where 94% of the sun will be covered at sunrise. From space, weather satellites like GOES-16 and Himawari will capture images of the moon’s shadow. The International Space Station ...

Supernova Remnants Found in Oceanic Samples, Scientists Look to Moon
- Wednesday March 26, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have identified supernova debris in deep-sea sediments, including a rare plutonium isotope linked to a kilonova. Researchers believe a neutron star collision occurred nearly 10 million years ago, scattering radioactive material across space. To validate this theory, they plan to analyze lunar soil, which remains undisturbed by Earth's ge...

Asteroid 2024 YR4 Has a 2.3 Percent Chance of Hitting Earth in 2032, Says NASA
- Tuesday February 18, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Asteroid 2024 YR4, measuring 180 feet wide, has a 2.3% chance of impacting Earth on 22 December 2032, according to scientists. A smaller 0.3% risk of the asteroid colliding with the moon has also been noted. While the Earth impact could release energy equal to 8 megatons of TNT, a moon strike may create a visible crater. Researchers are using the J...

Blue Origin’s New Shepard NS-29 Mission to Test Lunar Gravity Simulation
- Thursday January 30, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Blue Origin’s New Shepard NS-29 mission, scheduled for Jan. 28, 2025, will simulate lunar gravity during its suborbital flight. The uncrewed mission, launching from West Texas, carries 30 experiments, with 17 contributed by NASA. These experiments aim to advance lunar exploration technologies, including studying moon dust behaviour, fire dynamics...

Asteroid 2024 PT5 Linked to Lunar Surface, Reveals Planetary Defense Insights
- Tuesday January 28, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Asteroid 2024 PT5, sized like a school bus, passed Earth in January at 1.1 million miles. Research suggests it originated from the moon, ejected thousands of years ago by an impact. Spectral analysis matched it to Apollo 14 lunar rocks, ruling out artificial origins. This is the second known lunar asteroid after 469219 Kamo’oalewa. The study hint...

Study Reveals Earth's Small Asteroid Likely Originated from the Moon
- Monday January 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Asteroid 2024 PT5, discovered near Earth in 2024, is suspected to be a fragment from the Moon’s surface. Researchers found its composition matches lunar rock samples, specifically silicate-rich materials, unlike any known asteroid. Analysis from NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies confirmed it is a natural object, not human-made debris,...

NASA's TESS Discovers Fastest Disintegrating Planet Ever Seen: What You Need to Know
- Monday January 20, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s TESS has observed the closest and fastest disintegrating planet, BD+05 4868 Ab, located 141 light-years away. The planet loses a moon’s mass every million years as it is bombarded by its host star. Scientists are examining its massive dust trails, offering rare insights into the composition of terrestrial exoplanets. Researchers from MIT...

Recent findings from the University of Göttingen and the Max Planck Institute challenge previous theories about the moon's formation. The study reveals that the moon was largely created from material ejected from Earth's mantle, not from the protoplanet Theia. Additionally, it offers new perspectives on the origin of water on Earth, suggesting tha...
