NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revealed a stunning, detailed view of star birth in the young star cluster Pismis 24. What appears to be a craggy, starlit mountaintop kissed by wispy clouds is, in reality, a cosmic dust-scape being sculpted by the intense radiation and winds of massive, infant stars.According to NASA reports,…
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has captured astonishing new images of the planetary nebula NGC 1514, unveiling ghostly, infrared-bright rings around a dying star system located approximately 1,500 light-years from Earth. These structures, seen in unprecedented detail, provide astronomers with an extraordinary glimpse into the complex history and evolution of this stellar remnant.The findings,…
The James Webb Space Telescope has made a groundbreaking discovery that may reshape our understanding of supermassive black holes. While analysing data from the COSMOS-Web survey, astronomers Pieter van Dokkum of Yale University and Gabriel Brammer of the University of Copenhagen identified a highly unusual galaxy, dubbed the Infinity Galaxy, according to NASA reports. Its…
Astronomers have discovered the oldest and most distant black hole ever observed, transforming our understanding of the early universe. Detailed in a study published in Astrophysical Journal Letters, the finding was made using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The black hole, located in galaxy CAPERS-LRD-z9, dates back 13.3 billion years, just 500 million years…
In a recent breakthrough, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) made an exciting discovery, a new moon orbiting Uranus. Named S/2025 U1, the tiny moon is just about 10 kilometres (6 miles) in diameter, yet its detection marks a major breakthrough. Even NASA’s Voyager 2, which flew past Uranus nearly four decades ago, missed it….
Astronomers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have made a discovery that could reshape our understanding of the cosmos. While analysing deep space images, a team from the University of Missouri identified 300 mysterious objects that may be among the very first galaxies ever formed after the Big Bang. These ancient structures appear unusually…
In a stunning breakthrough, astronomers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have found strong evidence of a new exoplanet orbiting Alpha Centauri A, the closest sun-like star to Earth, just 4.37 light-years away. Using its Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) and a coronagraph to block stellar glare, JWST captured a faint object believed to be a…
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope In a groundbreaking discovery, has captured the clearest-ever image of 3I/ATLAS, a rare interstellar comet racing through our solar system at an incredible speed of 130,000 miles per hour. Marking only the third confirmed interstellar object ever observed, 3I/ATLAS is offering scientists a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to examine material formed in an…
The James Webb Space Telescope has officially discovered its first new planet after three years of supporting astronomers in studying known exoplanets. This young world is a groundbreaking discovery designated TWA 7b because it is the lowest-mass planet ever directly imaged outside the solar system. With an estimated mass of just 0.3 times that of…
In a rare and remarkable scientific achievement, scientists have detected a 13-billion-year-old microwave signal from a period known as the Cosmic Dawn. It is a time just after the Big Bang when the first stars and galaxies began to form. What makes this achievement remarkable is that the signal was picked up not from space,…
