Two New Exoplanets Found Orbiting a Star in Draco Constellation
- Wednesday April 2, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have identified two exoplanets, TOI-1453 b and TOI-1453 c, orbiting a star 250 light-years away in Draco. The planets, a super-Earth and a sub-Neptune, were detected using NASA’s TESS satellite and the HARPS-N spectrograph. TOI-1453 b is a rocky planet orbiting close to its star, while TOI-1453 c is twice Earth’s size and may have a...

New Study Challenges Claims of Vast Underground Water on Mars
- Thursday March 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Mars’ water history remains a mystery as new research questions the claim that vast amounts of water are stored beneath its surface. A study led by Bruce Jakosky argues that previous estimates of Mars’ mid-crust being saturated with liquid water may be inaccurate. The findings challenge earlier interpretations of seismic data from NASA’s InSi...

Alien Life May Survive on Planets Orbiting White Dwarfs, Study Finds
- Wednesday March 26, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
New research explores the possibility of alien life on planets orbiting white dwarfs. While these stellar remnants cool over time, their shrinking habitable zones may still allow biological processes like photosynthesis and UV-driven abiogenesis to occur. A model assessing a planet's energy reception over seven billion years indicates that life-sus...

James Webb Space Telescope Observes Mysterious Rogue Planet-Like Object
- Thursday March 6, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured new insights into SIMP 0136, a planetary-mass object floating freely around 20 light-years away. This celestial body, possibly a rogue planet or a brown dwarf, has puzzled astronomers for years. JWST’s infrared observations have revealed intricate cloud layers, temperature shifts, and potential chemical...

Primordial Helium-3 May Be Locked in Earth’s Core, Study Finds
- Wednesday March 5, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Helium-3, an isotope formed during the solar system's birth, may be trapped in Earth's core, a study suggests. Researchers at the University of Tokyo found that helium can mix with iron at extreme heat and pressure, allowing it to remain in Earth's solid core. This discovery could help determine how quickly the planet formed, with a rapid formation...

Solar System’s Journey Through Orion Complex May Have Altered Earth’s Climate
- Monday March 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have studied the solar system’s passage through the Orion complex, a dense region in space, around 14 million years ago. According to researchers, this movement may have compressed the heliosphere and increased interstellar dust reaching Earth. This dust could have influenced the planet’s climate and left traces in geological records...

New Research Reveals Mars’ Red Colour Linked to Ancient Water Presence
- Monday March 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A recent study suggests that Mars’ red hue originates from ferrihydrite, an iron oxide that forms in water-rich environments. Scientists recreated Martian dust in labs and found that the mineral remained stable despite the planet’s dry conditions. Data from orbiting spacecraft and rovers confirm this discovery, reshaping theories about Mars’ ...
