India marked a major milestone in space collaboration today with the successful launch of the NISAR mission, a joint project between ISRO and NASA. Lifted into orbit aboard the GSLV-F16 from Sriharikota, NISAR is set to become the world’s most advanced Earth observation satellite. With a unique dual-frequency Synthetic Aperture Radar that combines NASA’s L-band and ISRO’s S-band systems, the satellite can penetrate clouds, forests, and even d

Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla is set to return to Earth after a landmark mission aboard the International Space Station (ISS) as part of the Axiom-4 crew. The mission, which included extensive scientific research, marked several historic firsts for India. Shukla became the first Indian to visit the ISS and only the second Indian astronaut in space, following Wing Commander Rakesh Sharma's 1984 mission. His return, scheduled for July 14 via the Dragon spacecraft, is part of a well-

Astronomers have confirmed the passage of a rare interstellar visitor comet 3I/ATLAS through our solar system. First detected on July 1, 2025, by NASA’s ATLAS telescope in Chile, it is only the third such object ever observed, following Oumuamua in 2017 and 2I/Borisov in 2019. Traveling at an astonishing 208,800 km/h, 3I/ATLAS is expected to make its closest approach to the Sun on October 30 at a distance of 1.4 AU, just inside Mars’ orbit.

While most parts of the planet continue to experience rising temperatures, a mysterious cold patch in the Atlantic Ocean south of Greenland defies the trend. Known as the “cold blob,” this area has cooled by up to 0.3 degrees Celsius over the past century, even as surrounding waters have warmed. New research led by Penn State University has shed light on this anomaly, offering critical insights into the balance between ocean currents and atmospheri

A groundbreaking new study has uncovered a crucial piece of Earth’s ancient climate puzzle, shedding light on one of the most significant climate disasters in history: the Permian–Triassic Mass Extinction, or the "Great Dying." Occurring around 252 million years ago, this event wiped out nearly 90% of life on Earth, leaving scientists to wonder why the planet remained in extreme heat for millions of years afterward, even after the volcani
