“China’s ‘artificial sun’ ran for 1,066 seconds—2x longer than previous records!” Key Takeaways: The EAST fusion reactor maintained plasma stability for 1,066 seconds, smashing its previous 403-second record from 2023. This achievement represents a significant leap in realizing clean, limitless energy. Key upgrades, including doubling heating power, made this scientific feat possible. As part of…

James Webb Space Telescope orbit as seen from above the Sun’s north pole and as seen from Earth’s perspective. The James Webb Space Telescope will not be in orbit around the Earth, like the Hubble Space Telescope is – it will actually orbit the Sun, 1.5 million kilometers (1 million miles) away from the Earth…

At first glance, the question seems trivial: “What color is the sun?” Everyone “knows” the sun is yellow, right? You can see it in the sky (though, please, don’t stare directly at it). But the reality is more complex. The answer to this seemingly simple question depends on several factors, and there’s more than one…

This black hole is 3 million times denser than the Sun, revealing its incredible compactness. Key Takeaways Astronomers discovered a rare black hole in the Milky Way, roughly the size of Jupiter. The black hole wasn’t directly observed but inferred from a gas cloud’s motion. It’s 3,000 times heavier than the Sun, packed into a…

Time travelers may have already shaped history—how would we even know otherwise? Key Takeaways According to the block universe theory, past, present, and future exist simultaneously in a four-dimensional spacetime structure. The sense of “present” is a relative experience, not an absolute state. Traveling to the past wouldn’t change it, as the time traveler’s actions…

Is this the wormhole where all the evil dimension stuff comes out of…. or are we the evil dimension stuff that’s gonna come out on the other side. TL;DR An international team of astronomers, including Kareem El-Badry, known for debunking black hole discoveries, has identified a dormant stellar-mass black hole in the Large Magellanic Cloud….

Hubble Finds Two Exoplanets Covered in Oceans 1,000 Miles Deep, Possibly Hiding Exotic Forms of Life TL;DR Using data from the Hubble telescope, scientists have discovered two exoplanets, Kepler-138c and Kepler-138d, which appear to be “water worlds” with oceans potentially as deep as 1,000 miles. These planets, located 218 light-years away, are unlike any in…

A groundbreaking new theory has significantly revised Stephen Hawking’s 1974 black hole theory, suggesting that all objects with mass might eventually vanish. Stephen Hawking’s iconic theory on black holes has been updated with a chilling twist: it now proposes that everything in the universe is fated to evaporate over time. In 1974, Hawking introduced the…

Up to 10⁵⁰⁰ potential solutions exist in string theory, with our Universe as just one. Key Takeaways Physicists propose that our Universe could exist as a bubble between five-dimensional spaces. This model could explain dark energy, the force behind the Universe’s continuous expansion. The theory links our Universe’s properties to “strings” extending into an extra…
