Now researchers from the Center for Advanced Scientific Research at the CUNY Graduate Center (CUNY ASRC), in the United States, publish in the journal ‘Nature…
Astronomers discover the “missing link” that explains the origin of water in the solar system
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), astronomers have detected gaseous water in the planet-forming disc around the star V883 Orionis. This water carries a…
James Webb has discovered a galaxy extinguished by a supermassive black hole that became a quasar
Scientists have discovered a galaxy in which star formation has stopped. The James Webb Space Telescope has helped. this is what we know GS-9209 is…

Astronomers discover two exoplanets that orbit a star similar to the Sun
Astronomers report the discovery of two new exoplanets orbiting a bright Sun-like star about 175 light-years away. The newly discovered alien worlds, designated HIP 104045…
Scientists identify substance that could have caused life on Earth
A computer rendering of the Nickelback peptide shows the backbone nitrogen atoms (blue) linking two critical nickel atoms (orange). Scientists who have identified this part…
Deuterium-enriched water binds planet-forming disks to comets and protostars
CREDIT: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO), B. SAXTON (NRAO/AUI/NSF) The observation of the water present in the disk that forms around the protostar V883 Ori has provided new…
Astronomers believe they have discovered the key to finding wormholes
As far as we know, wormholes are consistent with Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, yet none of them have been found roaming the cosmos. But new…
Shock waves shaking the “cosmic web” connecting galaxies observed for the first time
The cosmic web winds around cosmic voids millions of light-years across. Predicted by astrophysicists in the 1960s, computer models showed what this vast network actually…
One more step to simulate the quantum world
A study has compared the frequency with which quantum tunneling occurs in reality with theoretical predictions to refine our understanding Quantum tunneling is a peculiarity…
