NASA’s discovery of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS has sparked global interest after Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb suggested it could be a form of alien technology. Detected on July 1, 2025, the comet is only the third known interstellar object to pass through our solar system. While NASA confirmed that 3I/ATLAS poses no threat to Earth, Loeb and other researchers argue that its unique chemical and physical properties set it apart from natural space objects, warranting a deeper investigation

Nasa has announced that it is suspending most of its operations after the United States entered a government shutdown on October 1, 2025, following Congress’s failure to pass a budget or temporary funding measure.

The partial solar eclipse on September 21, 2025, is one of the most anticipated celestial events of the year. Unlike a total eclipse where the Moon completely hides the Sun, this will be a partial eclipse, with the Moon covering up to 80–85% of the Sun’s disk in the most favorable viewing spots. The spectacle will be most striking at sunrise in southern New Zealand and during the morning hours in eastern and southern Australia, including cities like

A massive 8.8 magnitude earthquake that struck off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula in late July 2025 triggered a tsunami racing across the Pacific Ocean. While the waves caused minimal damage, the event provided a critical real-world test for Nasa’s Guardian system, an advanced disaster detection technology developed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California. Guardian detected atmospheric disturbances created by the tsunami within 20 minutes of

Asteroid 2025 QY4 is drawing the attention of both scientists and astronomy enthusiasts as it prepares to make a close approach to Earth this week. The asteroid, which belongs to the Aten group of space rocks known for orbiting across Earth’s path, measures nearly 180 feet in diameter and is travelling at an astonishing speed of more than 39,000 miles per hour. Its size and velocity make it an object worth monitoring, even though experts have already conf

The US Open 2025 men’s singles draw has handed Carlos Alcaraz a challenging path despite avoiding Jannik Sinner’s half.
