Humanity’s ambition to explore the cosmos knows no bounds. Since the dawn of space exploration, the ultimate question has lingered: when will mankind leave the solar system? The idea of interstellar travel is no longer confined to the realm of science fiction; it is a topic of serious scientific and technological inquiry. Let’s explore the…
The universe is vast beyond imagination, with distances measured in billions of light-years. As our telescopes become more advanced, we can look further back in time, uncovering celestial objects that reveal the secrets of the universe’s early days. These distant objects—galaxies, quasars, and supernovae—offer clues about the cosmos’ origins, composition, and evolution. But what are…
The universe has long been a source of mystery and wonder. For centuries, humanity has been captivated by the night sky, contemplating the stars, planets, and the vast expanse beyond. As our technology and understanding of the cosmos advance, scientists are piecing together an increasingly detailed picture of the universe’s structure, contents, and evolution. But…
The Milky Way, the galaxy that we call home, is an awe-inspiring and vast expanse of stars, planets, gas clouds, and mysterious objects. As the backdrop to our night skies, it’s a constant reminder of how much remains unknown in the universe. While astronomers have made remarkable progress in understanding the Milky Way, it still…
As humanity’s exploration of space accelerates, a new and growing problem has emerged: space junk, also known as space debris. Space junk refers to the discarded, defunct, or non-operational objects that orbit Earth. These objects range from fragments of old satellites and rocket parts to tiny pieces of metal or paint chips that have broken…

Researchers used a new algorithm to draw a more realistic image of the exoplanet population in order to locate Earth-sized exoplanets. Humanity has discovered around 4,000 planets outside our solar system until now and most of them are considerably larger than Earth. According to an estimate, nearly 96% of these exoplanets are comparable with the…
Interstellar travel has always been an intriguing concept for scientists. Over the years, they have tried to come up with some interesting ideas for spacecraft propulsion. While some of them are just theoretical, others could pave the way for the perfect interstellar travel system. Let’s take a look at the 5 most interesting designs for…
The advancement of astronomical technology has enabled humanity to come up with some amazing inventions that were way beyond the imagination of our ancestors. The element of curiosity has urged scientists to explore anything and everything. They dwelled into the limitless vastness of space to find some of the most fascinating facts about our universe.…
Astronomers believe that radio telescopes in space can take much better images of black holes in the future. Black holes have always attracted a lot of attention, since their discovery in 1916. Recently, astronomers have finally captured the first-ever image of a black hole to put an end to the long-lasting anticipation. The Event Horizon…
The mystery of missing comets has always been a hard nut to crack for the astronomers. Despite their massive size and distinctive tails, some comets are known to simply disappear in open space. Several different theories have been proposed but scientists haven’t been able to figure out a definitive answer for this puzzle. Below is…
Scientists have finally detected the first molecular bond (Helium Hydride) to be ever created in the universe by observing NGC 7027, a planetary nebula. The discovery of the Helium Hydride ion (HeH+), finally closes yet another chapter in the annals of space discoveries. Previous attempts to detect the Helium Hydride ion in space were restricted…
Humanity has always been curious to explore the vastness of space in an attempt to unravel the mysteries of the universe. Although we have made a lot of progress in this regard, our surroundings continue to surprise us with every new finding. Below is a list of the most interesting planets (exoplanets) that have been…
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) was launched just a year ago but it has already found its first Earth-sized exoplanet. Launched on 18 April 2018, TESS is expected to discover around hundreds of Earth-like planets during its two-year mission. Having said that, this duration could be extended if the satellite is able to successfully…
