Study Explores Sun’s Magnetic Field Changes and Solar Wind Acceleration
A study published in The Astrophysical Journal has shed light on how the Sun’s magnetic field influences solar wind acceleration. Using data from the Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter, researchers observed that sharp magnetic switchbacks smooth out into gentler waves as they travel further from the Sun. This relaxation process transfers magnet...

NASA Finds Black Hole Rotating at Unexpected Angle in NGC 5084 Galaxy
NASA researchers have uncovered a black hole in the NGC 5084 galaxy that rotates at an unexpected angle, revealed through re-analysed Chandra X-ray data. The black hole is surrounded by unusual X-shaped plasma plumes, indicating disruptions in the galaxy's past. A tipped dusty disk further supports this, confirming the black hole's unique sideways ...

New Study Suggests the Moon Is 100 Million Years Older Than Previously Thought
Recent findings indicate the Moon might be over 100 million years older than prior estimates. A new study proposes that tidal forces caused intense heating and surface remelting around 4.35 billion years ago, resetting the apparent age of lunar rocks. These insights support the idea that massive collisions formed the Moon much earlier than previous...

The Moon Might Be Much Older Than Previously Thought, New Study Confirms
However, new findings propose an earlier formation- approximately 4.51 billion years ago with a significant "re-melting" event occurring later.

Study Finds A Potential Link Between Plant-Based Meat And Depression In Vegetarians
Published in the journal Food Frontiers, the study also found higher blood pressure and inflammation levels, along with lower levels of 'good' cholesterol (HDL), in vegetarians who ate plant-based meat alternatives.

New Study Finds Axons May Resemble 'Strings of Beads' Instead of Smooth Lines
A recent study challenges the traditional view of axons as smooth, cylindrical fibres, revealing they may actually resemble "strings of beads" or nanoscopic varicosities. Conducted by researchers at Johns Hopkins University using a high-pressure freezing imaging method, the discovery showed rotund blobs connected by thin tubes within axons. These s...

Webb Telescope Confirms Planet-Forming Disks Last Longer in Early Universe
The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed that planet-forming disks around stars in the early universe lasted far longer than previously believed. By studying NGC 346, a star cluster in the Small Magellanic Cloud, Webb observed disks surviving for 20–30 million years, challenging current models. This discovery suggests that low-metal environmen...

Study Says Flu Virus Remains In Refrigerated Raw Milk For Up To 5 Days
The findings come at a time when outbreaks of bird flu in dairy cattle have raised concerns about the potential for a new pandemic in the USA.

Earth's Hidden Treasure: Mountain Of Hydrogen Could End Fossil Fuel Era, Study Finds
The discovery challenges previous beliefs that hydrogen, being a small molecule, would not accumulate in large quantities underground.

Humpback Whale’s Unprecedented 8,000-Mile Migration Shatters Records
A humpback whale has been tracked on an unprecedented 8,000-mile migration, breaking records for the longest documented journey between breeding grounds. Scientists suggest the movement might be due to climate change affecting food and mating behaviours. AI-driven photo tracking through HappyWhale.com played a key role in identifying the whale’s ...

TikTok's Global Carbon Footprint Nearly Exceeds Greece's, Study Finds
TikTok's heavy reliance on video streaming has made it one of the more energy-intensive platforms, contributing to a substantial carbon footprint.

Jupiter’s Moon Io Shows No Magma Ocean as New Findings Explain Volcanic Eruptions
NASA's latest findings indicate that Jupiter's volcanic moon Io does not have a global magma ocean beneath its surface, debunking previous theories. This conclusion comes from analysis of data from NASA's Juno spacecraft and archival observations from the Galileo mission. The study suggests that Io's interior is more solid than expected, with volca...

Earth’s Inner Core Might Be Slowing Down and Changing Shape, New Study Reveals
Research suggests Earth’s inner core, a metal sphere within the molten outer core, is slowing its spin and reshaping. Seismic wave analyses from earthquakes reveal discrepancies indicating deformation on the core’s surface or changes in rotation. John Vidale, a geophysicist from the University of Southern California, presented these findings, s...

"Global Phenomenon": Bowel Cancer Is Rising Among Under-50s Worldwide, Study Finds
Rates of bowel cancer are rising among younger adults, a new study found that also revealed that rates are rising faster in England than in almost any other country.

JWST Discovers Jupiter-Mass Binary Objects in Orion Nebula, Offering New Clues
The James Webb Space Telescope has identified dozens of Jupiter-mass binary objects (JuMBOs) in the Orion Nebula. These enigmatic rogue gas giant pairs orbit each other at distances of 25 to 400 AU. Researchers propose they could be failed stars formed under extreme radiation conditions, ejected planetary systems, or a mix of both. Simulations repl...
