South Korean Researchers Unveil Wearable ‘Iron Man’ Exoskeleton Robot to Help People with Paraplegia Walk
South Korean researchers have built a wearable robotic exoskeleton suit that can help people with paraplegia walk again. The suit, dubbed WalkON Suit F1, was developed by the Exoskeleton Laboratory team at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). The researchers have built several iterations of the wearable robotic exoskeleto...

Red Giant XX Trianguli Has Massive Starspots, Dubbed the 'Most Spotted Star in the Sky'
Massive starspots have been observed on the red giant star XX Trianguli, located 630 light-years from Earth. These starspots, larger than the sun's entire surface, make XX Trianguli the "most spotted star in the sky." Researchers from the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam and HUN-REN RCAES discovered that the star's internal magnetic dynam...

New Theory Suggests Gravitational Waves Could Solve Black Hole Information Paradox
A new study proposes a potential solution to the long-standing black hole information paradox, suggesting that black holes might leak information through gravitational waves. Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have explored how quantum nonlocality could connect the interior of a black hole with its exterior. This connection would...

Arecibo Observatory Data Helps SETI Uncover Secrets of Pulsar Signals and Cosmic Distortions
Data from the now-collapsed Arecibo Observatory continues to drive major discoveries in space science. Sofia Sheikh and her team from the SETI Institute utilised archived data to investigate the signals of pulsars—dense neutron stars emitting radiation like cosmic lighthouses. Their study focused on how these signals are distorted by interstellar...

Astronomers Explore Moon as Vantage Point for Space Studies: Report
A recent symposium at the Raman Research Institute (RRI) in Bengaluru brought together over 60 scientists and researchers to discuss the Moon’s role as a vantage point for advanced astronomical studies. Organised by RRI and the U.R. Rao Satellite Centre (URSC) of ISRO, the three-day event focused on leveraging the Moon’s unique environment for ...

Researchers Points out Rapid Surge in Global Temperature Could be Due to Reduced Planetary Albedo
In a study by the Alfred Wegener Institute, scientists identified a sharp drop in planetary albedo as a primary factor in the 2023 temperature rise. This decline, particularly in low-altitude clouds, has been linked to a 0.23°C increase in global mean temperature. The study highlights that global warming itself may be reducing cloud cover, suggest...

Super-Earth In the Solar System Could Have Rendered Our Planet Uninhabitable, Says Study
A recent study explores a hypothetical super-Earth between Mars and Jupiter, revealing its severe impact on Earth's orbit and climate. Conducted by Florida Institute of Technology scientists Emily Simpson and Howard Chen, the simulation demonstrates how such a planet’s gravity could destabilise neighbouring planets, causing erratic orbits and ext...
