Using the wide-field survey capabilities of the Subaru Telescope, astronomers discovered active supermassive black holes, or quasars, in the distant universe and then studied them with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). This work has revealed how galaxies and their central black holes grew 12.9 billion years ago.

The operation of quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, relies on the implementation of quantum logic gates. These are essentially operations that manipulate qubits, units of information that can exist in a superposition of states and can become entangled.

Sensational news regarding the mummified ‘alien’ remains discovered in a remote cave near Nazca Peru: “30 percent of this DNA is similar to the human being, but 70 percent is not.” The DNA tests were carried out by the BioTecMol laboratory,
The mummified alien remains are said to have been […]

The official number of exoplanets—planets outside our solar system—tracked by NASA has reached 6,000. Confirmed planets are added to the count on a rolling basis by scientists from around the world, so no single planet is considered the 6,000th entry. The number is monitored by NASA’s Exoplanet Science Institute (NExScI), based at Caltech’s IPAC in […]
Some asteroids are more dangerous than others, according to a report published in Nature Astronomy by an international team of researchers, led by astrophysicist Auriane Egal of the Montreal Planetarium in Canada. The team had presented their findings of an investigation into the impact of small asteroid 2023 CX1 over France in February 2023. This […]
The iron-rich core at the center of our planet has been a crucial part of Earth’s evolution. The core not only powers the magnetic field which shields our atmosphere and oceans from solar radiation, it also influences plate tectonics which have continually reshaped the continents.

When considering the unnamed major features of all the moons, asteroids, and comets in our solar system, there are still a lot of places out there that need proper names. That means the International Astronomical Union (IAU), the non-governmental body responsible for naming astronomical objects, has its work cut out for them.
