Two startling flashes from the Moon were captured by astronomer Daichi Fujii around Halloween. These bright collisions provide insights into lunar impacts and the changing surface of the Moon.
Scientists have discovered two pairs of merging black holes, revealing that the larger ones are rare 'second-generation' black holes formed from previous collisions. This groundbreaking finding sheds light on the universe's dense environments and validates Einstein's theories.
Researchers at Caltech are pioneering a new method to study gravitational waves using Maxwell's equations, potentially revolutionizing our understanding of gravity and its non-linear dynamics.
A new study reveals the 50 most concerning pieces of space debris in low-Earth orbit, predominantly from the last century. With increasing rocket launches, the risk of collision and Kessler Syndrome looms large. Experts warn of China's growing space junk problem and the urgent need for cleanup.
Ten years ago, physicists made history by detecting gravitational waves for the first time, confirming Einstein's theory. Discover how this monumental event reshaped our understanding of the universe and what it means for the future of astrophysics.
A recent House hearing revealed that proposed budget cuts could jeopardize NASA's planetary defense efforts against asteroid impacts, raising concerns among lawmakers about America's space safety.
In a groundbreaking experiment, physicists at CERN have turned lead into gold through high-speed ion collisions. While the gold produced is minuscule, it marks a fascinating achievement in modern physics, proving that ancient dreams of alchemy can have a scientific basis.
In a groundbreaking revelation, astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered that a planet's demise was far more dramatic than previously thought, as it spiraled into its host star, altering our understanding of cosmic events.
A new ESA documentary reveals the alarming truth about space debris, with 70% of launched satellites still in orbit. Could our reliance on satellite technology lead to a catastrophic crisis in space?
A new short film from ESA highlights the urgent crisis of space debris threatening vital satellite operations and calls for global action to address the escalating hazards in Earth's orbit.
