Researchers at the University of Iowa have developed a new theoretical model that could resolve major challenges in quantum technology by purifying photons—the fundamental light particles that form the basis of quantum computing and communication systems. Their work, published in Optica Quantum,......
Astronomers are preparing for a remarkable cosmic encounter as interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS makes its closest pass to Earth on December 19. The celestial visitor, originating from beyond the solar system, will come no nearer than 167 million miles from the planet roughly twice the distance between the......
The long-accepted understanding of dark energy, the mysterious force believed to drive the universe’s accelerating expansion, is facing renewed scrutiny after an international research team proposed that it may not be constant over time. Data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI),......
A NASA astronaut and two Russian cosmonauts successfully docked with the International Space Station following a Soyuz MS-28 launch from Kazakhstan's Baikonur Cosmodrome, though the mission revealed serious damage to the launch pad. Post-launch checks uncovered that a key mobile servicing cabin......
Scientists have discovered tryptophan, a complex amino acid essential to life, in samples collected from asteroid Bennu by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission. This marks the first time tryptophan has been found in extraterrestrial materials, raising the total number of protein-forming amino acids detected......
The United Nations has confirmed that interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS is at the centre of a full scale planetary defence exercise designed to test how well the world can respond to a genuine cosmic threat in the future. Aimed at space policy analysts, planetary defence specialists and readers who follow......
A NASA astrophysicist has introduced a compelling new explanation for the enduring mystery of why humanity has not detected or been contacted by extraterrestrial civilizations. Dr. Robin Corbet, a senior research scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and the University of Maryland, proposes......
The New Glenn rocket, developed by Jeff Bezos' aerospace company Blue Origin, successfully completed its second flight on Thursday, marking a significant breakthrough for the company. Launching from Cape Canaveral, Florida, the rocket carried two NASA satellites destined for Mars while achieving......
Scientists from Durham University are playing a pivotal role in designing a cutting-edge camera for NASA’s Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO), the first telescope specifically created to detect signs of life on distant planets. The announcement, made on November 8, 2025, highlights the UK’s......
China has reached another milestone in space exploration as the Shenzhou 21 spacecraft docked with the Tiangong space station in a record 3.5 hours. This achievement highlights the nation’s growing expertise in orbital rendezvous and docking technology, a field where it continues to compete with......
Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb is urging NASA to release high-resolution images of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, claiming that the Manhattan-sized object might be extraterrestrial technology rather than a natural visitor from another star system. This demand has reignited debate surrounding Loeb’s......
For the first time, an international team of researchers has captured direct evidence of the “heartbeat” of a newborn neutron star within a distant gamma-ray burst (GRB). This groundbreaking discovery provides crucial proof that at least some of the cosmos' most explosive events are powered......
The global scientific community is at odds over whether to halt research into "mirror life" synthetic organisms made entirely from molecules that are the mirror opposites of those found in conventional biology. At a recent conference in Manchester, leading researchers debated the future of......
