NASA's James Webb Space Telescope found fingerprints of 'dimethyl sulphide' and 'dimethyl disulphide' on distant exoplanet named K2-18 b -- known to be produced on Earth by microbes. The molecules provide the strongest evidence yet that life may exist on a planet outside our solar system, even as how they formed on that exoplanet remain unknown

On 27 December last year, astronomers using the ATLAS survey telescope in Chile discovered a small asteroid moving away from Earth. Follow up observations have revealed that the asteroid, 2024 YR4, is on a path that might lead to a collision with our planet on 22 December 2032

N. Sree Raghunandan Kumar, the founder president of the Planetary Society of India (PSI), advises, "While there are some exaggerated reports about the visibility of 6 to 7 planets, this is a great opportunity to observe four planets in just a few minutes in the evening sky. However, there’s no need to rush out and buy telescopes."

Washington: NASA and European Space Agency’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured images of a Jupiter-like protoplanet forming through what researchers describe as an “intense and violent process”. This discovery supports a long-debated theory for how planets like Jupiter form, called “disk instability”, the researchers said. The new planet under construction is embedded in a protoplanetary […]

Washington: Researchers have discovered a new form of ice, which could have implications for our understanding of distant, water-rich planets. The findings of the study were published in the journal ‘Physical Review B’. Solid water, or ice, is like many other materials in that it can form different solid materials based on variable temperatures and […]
