For over a century, the secrets of the universe have teased humanity from behind a veil of darkness—an elusive darkness that isn’t merely the absence of light, but the absence…

In the vast, cold darkness of space, there exist cosmic lighthouses so powerful that they can outshine entire galaxies. These titanic beacons are quasars—quasi-stellar objects that burn with the intensity…

When the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) turned its powerful gaze toward the icy outskirts of our solar system, it caught a planet—or rather, a dwarf planet—revealing secrets that had…

The Sun is far more than a steady beacon in our sky—it is a boiling, roiling nuclear furnace, constantly releasing a torrent of charged particles into space. But exactly how…

Astronomers have long imagined the birthplaces of planets as serene nurseries of dust and gas gently swirling in protoplanetary disks. But recent observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)…

On a quiet December night in 2024, as Earth rotated on unbothered by the chaos in the distant cosmos, the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) in Hawaii caught sight…

For decades, the fate of our home galaxy, the Milky Way, seemed sealed. Like the final act of a slow-motion tragedy unfolding across the cosmos, astronomers believed it was destined…

It is hard to imagine the ghost of a star. And yet, floating 326 light years away from Earth is one such celestial ghost, known to astronomers as WD J004917.14–252556.81—or…

On the vast canvas of the cosmos, few events are as dramatic, as violent, and as enlightening as the collision of two neutron stars. These ultradense stellar remnants—no larger than…

Long before the telescope reshaped astronomy, when European star charts were still sparse and speculative, Chinese astronomers were looking up at the heavens with a determination and precision that continues…

In the three decades since astronomers discovered the first exoplanet orbiting a sun-like star, the search for other worlds has exploded into a central pillar of modern astronomy. We now…

For centuries, astronomers have gazed skyward, working to decode the cosmic choreography that governs our solar system. They’ve modeled planetary orbits, traced their origins, and attempted to predict their futures…

For centuries, the question of extraterrestrial life has captivated human imagination. But in the scientific age, that curiosity has transformed into a measurable quest. As humanity builds bigger telescopes and…

On Halloween week in 2003, while children in costumes collected candy under the glow of streetlamps, an invisible force lashed out from the heart of our solar system. The sun,…

It begins with a question as old as humanity itself: are we alone in the universe? For decades, scientists at NASA have searched the solar system for clues. Mars, with…

In the vast menagerie of alien worlds scattered across our galaxy, few are as baffling—or as blisteringly extreme—as WASP-121b. This gas giant, discovered in 2015, defies our familiar sense of…
