This rare find in the Sárrétudvari-Hízóföld cemetery features a mix of male and female grave goods, challenging prior assumptions about gender roles during the Hungarian Conquest period. The burial of SH-63, confirmed through genetic and...
- JUNO Neutrino Detector Nears Completion, Set to Begin Operations in 2025 4 Gennaio 2025The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), located 700 metres below ground in China, is set to begin operations in summer 2025. Designed as the world’s largest neutrino detector, JUNO aims to determine the heaviest among the three neutrino types. The core of the detector consists of a 35-metre-wide acrylic sphere containing 20,000 metric tons of […]
- Tristan da Cunha: The Remote Island Shaped by Volcanic Forces and Rich Ecosystems 4 Gennaio 2025Tristan da Cunha, a volcanic island group in the South Atlantic, is home to 250 people in a settlement called Edinburgh of the Seven Seas. Surrounded by rugged terrain and unique wildlife like northern rockhopper penguins, it offers a glimpse into Earth's geological and ecological history. Its isolation is so profound that reaching it involves […]
- Search for Elusive Missing Link Black Holes Continues as Omega Centauri Observation Turns Out to Be a Dud 4 Gennaio 2025The suspected intermediate-mass black hole in Omega Centauri has been reclassified as a cluster of stellar-mass black holes, according to a recent study. Unusual star movements within the dense cluster were explained using pulsar data, providing new insights into its core dynamics. This discovery reshapes theories about the elusive intermediate-mass black holes and co...
- Five Dwarf Galaxies Found in a Rare Alignment, Challenges Current Cosmic Models 4 Gennaio 2025A rare alignment of five dwarf galaxies, positioned around 117 million light-years away, has been discovered by astronomers. This grouping, which challenges existing models of galaxy formation, shows active star formation despite their small sizes. The galaxies, labelled D1 to D5, exhibit unique characteristics, including shared rotational motion and gravitational int...
- Solar Wind from Sun's Large Coronal Hole Could Create Auroras This Weekend 4 Gennaio 2025A powerful solar wind is expected to hit Earth this weekend, originating from a massive coronal hole in the sun’s atmosphere. This phenomenon could result in dazzling northern lights, particularly in high-latitude regions. NOAA has issued a G1 geomagnetic storm warning for January 4-5, forecasting heightened geomagnetic activity.
- Space Debris Crashes in Kenyan Village, Suspected Rocket Stage Part Identified 4 Gennaio 2025A large metallic object crashed into Mukuku village, Makueni County, Kenya, on December 30. The object, weighing 500 kilograms and about 8 feet in diameter, is believed to be space debris, possibly from a rocket leftover. The Kenya Space Agency (KSA) has secured the site and is investigating the object’s origin.
- Newly Discovered Oxygen Reaction Existed in Primitive Atmosphere, Sheds Light on Origin of Life 4 Gennaio 2025Scientists have uncovered a new way oxygen could form in carbon dioxide-rich atmospheres without the involvement of life. The discovery, led by researchers from the University of Science and Technology of China, shows that a reaction between helium ions and CO2 can produce molecular oxygen. This process challenges traditional methods of life detection on planets, […]
- Full Moons of 2025: Dates, Supermoons, Lunar Eclipses, and Key Celestial Events 4 Gennaio 2025In 2025, sky enthusiasts can look forward to 12 full moons, including three supermoons and two total lunar eclipses. The Worm Moon in March and the Harvest Moon in September will undergo total eclipses, turning reddish-orange during these rare events. Supermoons will occur in October, November, and December, appearing larger and brighter as the moon […]
- ISRO 2025 Calendar: Space Docking, Gaganyaan, NISAR and Private PSLV Launch 4 Gennaio 2025ISRO is set for a milestone year in 2025, with a series of high-profile space missions. The year will begin with the Space Docking Experiment (SpaDex) scheduled for January 7, aimed at testing critical docking capabilities for future space missions. Following this, the NVS-02 satellite, which will replace the NavIC satellite system, is expected to […]
