This innovation allows for...
An infrared image of Io snapped by Juno in July 2022. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/ASI/INAF/JIRAM) The most powerful volcanic eruptions in the Solar System occur not on Earth, however on Io, a sulfurous moon orbiting the planet Jupiter. And currently, researchers from the Planetary Science Institute (PSI) in the United States have noticed a current outburst that's been surprisingly productive,...
A wonder of engineering, Webb is able to gaze further into the cosmos than any telescope before it thanks to its enormous primary mirror and its instruments that focus on infrared, allowing it peer through dust and gas. NASA administrator Bill Nelson stated Wednesday that the agency will reveal the "inmost picture of our universe...
Discovered in 1950, this galaxy is known as Hoag's object, and is the first known instance of a ring galaxy. It's highly unusual, with an elliptical, very red center, a large gap between the nucleus and the outer ring, and the blue, young stars in the outer ring have no identifiable trigger leading to...

Astronomers find 'gold standard' star in Milky Way. Credit: Carnegie Science There is a relatively bright star in our sun's neighborhood of the Milky Way Galaxy. Inside of it, astronomers have been able to identify the widest variety of elements in a star more than our solar system yet. The research, led by University of Michigan...
Nasa/JHU/Carnegie Credit Mercury is a really peculiar planet. The tiniest in the solar system and the one nearest to the sun, it rotates slowly in a 3:2 spin resonance and experiences hot temperatures of up to 430 degrees Celsius during the day and cold temperatures of -170 degrees Celsius at night. Its average density is...
A new graphene amplifier has been able to unlock hidden frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum. Credit: Scitech Daily The Earth's atmosphere has been utilized as a 'laboratory' to perform a physics experiment in a research partnership involving the University of Strathclyde, which can help boost the efficiency of GPS. The research study displays a new method...
There are many sorts of Opal, and also a wide array of names are made use of to connect concerning them. If you have spent a percentage of time considering the Opal, you have probably been shocked by this substantial vocabulary of lovely names. There is a logic behind fire opal, black Opal,...
