Mysterious Icy Objects Found in Milky Way Baffle Astronomers: Everything You Need to Know
Astronomers have identified mysterious icy objects in the outer Milky Way, raising questions about their nature. These structures, composed of ice and gas, are located in a region where star formation is rare. Despite early detections dating back to 2006-2011, recent observations using the AKARI space telescope and the ALMA array in Chile have prov...

Unusual White Streaks in Northern Lights Raise Questions About Atmospheric Phenomenon
White streaks have been observed weaving through the northern lights, presenting a new atmospheric puzzle. Captured by the TREx mission, these eerie white glows appear alongside traditional red and green auroras or in areas where colourful displays have faded. The phenomenon is not considered an aurora, but its emission pattern shares similarities ...

NASA's Dual Rocket Launch to Uncover Mysteries of Alaska's Auroras
NASA is set to launch two rockets from the Poker Flat Research Range in Alaska, aiming to study the aurora borealis. The missions will focus on flickering auroras and the mysterious dark patches known as "black auroras." Led by Marilia Samara and Robert Michell, the rockets will collect data on auroral behaviour and electron movement. Precision tim...

Invisible Boson Stars Could Hold the Key to Dark Matter's Mysteries
Boson stars, invisible celestial objects theorised to form from axions, are now at the centre of dark matter research. Axions, light and wave-like bosons, may cluster under gravity, forming these mysterious entities. Unlike normal stars, boson stars neither emit light nor interact with regular matter in observable ways. With sizes ranging from smal...

Seismic Data from NASA’s InSight Might Solve the Mystery of Mars’ Dichotomy
NASA’s InSight mission has provided seismic data shedding light on the Martian dichotomy, the split between Mars’ northern lowlands and southern highlands. Findings from the mantle’s seismic wave analysis suggest the split stems from ancient tectonic activity and magma dynamics, rather than asteroid impacts. Variations in crust thickness and ...

NASA Rockets Set to Journey Through Flickering, Disappearing Auroras
NASA is set to launch two groundbreaking rocket missions in January 2025 to unravel the mysteries of auroras. The GIRAFF mission will study fast-pulsating and flickering auroras, while the Black and Diffuse Aurora Science Surveyor mission will focus on dark auroral patches or "black auroras." By using advanced instruments to measure electron activi...

Scientists Investigate Hypernuclei To Understand Subatomic Forces and Neutron Stars
A groundbreaking study on hypernuclei, led by Ulf-G. Meißner from the Institute for Advanced Simulation, uses nuclear lattice effective field theory to explore the interactions of Λ-hyperons within atomic nuclei. The research, published in The European Physical Journal A, provides key insights into the forces that shape hypernuclei and their pote...

New DNA Analysis Sheds Light on Post-Roman Migration and Anglo-Saxon Influence in Britain
A groundbreaking DNA technique, known as Twigstats, is helping to unlock new insights into Britain's history. Researchers are studying human remains to understand the migration and interactions of populations after the Romans left. This innovative method is already shedding light on significant periods such as the Anglo-Saxon invasion and Viking ex...
