A gas giant 520 light-years away has equatorial atmospheric motion approaching 33,000 kilometres per hour—around 16 times Neptune’s fastest winds. When announced in January 2025, it was the fastest planetary jet stream yet measured, although an even faster one was reported on another exoplanet just a month later.
1+ hour, 38+ min ago (1574+ words) WASP-127b's brief wind-speed record reveals how Doppler-shifted molecules can turn an unresolved exoplanet into the beginnings of a weather map. By Deep Field · Edited by Lachlan Brown Published August 24, 2026 · How we edit For 28 days in early 2025, WASP-127b held one…...
Astronomers find evidence of liquid recently flowing on the surface of Pluto
11+ hour, 48+ min ago (1152+ words) Pluto’s surface stays at about −393°F (−236°C), cold enough that nitrogen there isn’t a gas at all but a glacier miles deep. Nothing about a world that cold suggests liquid could be flowing on its surface. But dark streaks along…...
Three Supermassive Black Holes Found in a Galaxy From the Dawn of the Universe
13+ hour, 21+ min ago (26+ words) Three supermassive black holes in a distant and therefore very old galaxy offer a glimpse into how black holes merged and grew in the early universe....
More Stars, More Worlds: This Stunning Finding Is Shaking Up Our Universe - Futura-Sciences
16+ hour, 28+ min ago (321+ words) A press release from Leiden University (corresponding to the Nature Astronomy article, freely available via arXiv) breaks it down: galaxies previously believed to be massive early in the story of the observable Universe—which is a headache for the standard…...
Space News: Hubble solves merger mystery from Milky Way’s early years
19+ hour, 14+ min ago (900+ words) Our home galaxy, the Milky Way, grew to its current size in part by consuming smaller galaxies. Now, new data from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope shows definitive evidence of a dwarf galaxy merging with the young Milky Way galaxy in…...
Top cosmic mysteries NASA’s powerful new Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope could solve
19+ hour, 44+ min ago (310+ words) Scientists believe that the expansion of the universe is accelerating instead of slowing down, and dark energy may be the cause of it. Roman’s broad view will collect infrared from a vast area of the sky potentially from a billion…...

They enable astronomers to repeat observations of the same star interacting with the same black hole,…...
The Milky Way Started Eating Other Galaxies Billions of Years Earlier Than We Thought, New Study Says
1+ day, 9+ hour ago (356+ words) Our galactic home, the Milky Way galaxy, was a hungry fella several eons ago. Scientists observing clusters of stars hanging out near the Milky Way’s center found evidence suggesting that our galaxy once collided with and devoured a smaller galaxy…...
JWST finds early galaxies may be 4 times more massive than thought
1+ day, 15+ hour ago (315+ words) Astronomers using JWST have discovered that massive early galaxies contain far more small, faint stars than expected. That hidden population could make some of these galaxies three to four times more massive than previous estimates. The finding makes it even…...
