Loeb said Christmas should bring clarity on whether 3I/ATLAS’s million-kilometre, ruler-straight jets come from natural ice fragments or technological probes As NASA insists the newly released images of interstellar visitor 3I/ATLAS confirm it is nothing more than a comet, Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb is arguing the opposite, that the most …
For decades, scientists believed that gold and other heavy elements were born from the cataclysmic collision of neutron stars. These rare events, observed across the cosmos, seemed to provide the intense conditions required to forge such elements. However, new findings from NASA and the European Space Agency suggest that another, …
In recent years, the rising congestion in Earth’s orbit has become one of the most pressing challenges facing space-faring nations. Thousands of inactive satellites, rocket fragments, and collision-generated particles now orbit the planet at high velocity, posing significant risks to operational spacecraft and the infrastructure that supports communications, navigation, and …
NASA has captured some of the most breathtaking images of stars, galaxies, and celestial events using powerful instruments like the Hubble Space Telescope, the Cassini spacecraft, and the International Space Station. These images reveal the beauty and complexity of the universe, from distant spiral galaxies and glowing nebulae to variable …
