Astronomers at the Pan-STARRS Observatory in Hawaii made history in 2017 when they detected ‘Oumuamua, the first interstellar object (ISO) ever observed. Two years later, the interstellar comet 2I/Borisov became the second ISO ever observed. And on July 1st, 2025, the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) in Rio Hurtado detected a third interstellar object in our Solar System, the …

Scientists have successfully extracted and analyzed ancient air trapped inside a rock for over 815 million years, providing a direct glimpse into Earth’s distant atmospheric past. This groundbreaking study, led by geochemist Dr. Nigel Blamey and an international research team, developed a method to measure gases sealed inside microscopic bubbles within halite — a mineral form of rock salt. The …

Editor’s Note: The headline of this article was updated on August 14 to to clarify the nature of the moonquake research. As NASA prepares to send astronauts to the surface of the Moon’s south polar region for the first time ever during the Artemis III mission, scientists are working on methods to determine the frequency of moonquakes along active faults …

Scientists have identified a new species of ancient whale with cartoonish bulging eyes that they say would have made it look like a Pokémon. A precursor to today’s modern whale species, the 25 million-year-old creature was “deceptively cute,” according to Erich Fitzgerald, senior curator of vertebrate paleontology at Australia’s Museums Victoria Research Institute, as reported by the Toronto Sun. “It …

A human embryo being implanted into a uterus has been pictured in real time and in 3D footage for the first time by a team of scientists. It shows images of an embryo implanting into a synthetic uterus, demonstrating how the process occurs naturally. The groundbreaking footage was released by researchers at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) in …

Electrical interference makes atomic clocks unsuited for dark matter detection, but …

Good news, everyone! Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, have coined a new term to describe our brains being dumb. In a recent study, they provide evidence for a distinct but common kind of cognitive bias—one that makes us reluctant to take the easier path in life if it means retracing our steps. The researchers have named the bias …

A Giant, Destructive Volcanic Eruption Is Set to Shake the World in the Coming Months, Bringing About the End of Mankind, Scientists Warn  The Daily Galaxy Source link

Among the hundreds of billions of galaxies that stretch across the known universe, even the smallest members can reveal secrets about our cosmic history. But even as we discover new galaxies, astronomers suspect that many small “dwarf” galaxies remain hidden from view. Only a fraction of the size of the Milky Way, these galaxies have thus far been too faint …
