According to new high-resolution 3D simulations, spinning black holes twist space-time around them, eventually ripping apart the violent maelstrom of gas (or accretion disk) that…
New type I supernova discovered using JWST
Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), an international team of astronomers observed the galaxy cluster PLCK G165.7+67.0. The observation campaign led to the discovery…
A model that probes the connection between entangled particles and wormholes in general relativity
Quantum entanglement is a physical process in which pairs of particles connect and remain connected even when separated by large distances. This fascinating phenomenon has…

‘James Webb’ has discovered carbon deposits on the surface of Europa – which increases the chances of finding life in the subglacial ocean of this Jupiter moon
Image source: NASA The James Webb Space Observatory looks beyond the youth of the universe. It will also help you discover the secrets of the…
Discovery of a new ultra-diffuse and faint dwarf galaxy
An international team of astronomers using the Dark Energy Survey (DES) has discovered a new ultra-diffuse dwarf galaxy. The new galaxy is named NGC 55-dw1,…
Wormholes and quantum entanglement: from hypothesis to model
There is an amazing phenomenon in quantum physics called entanglement. This lies in the fact that two particles can be so tightly bound that their…
An Earth-sized planet made of solid iron was found orbiting a nearby star
Nature’s strange exceptions put pressure on our models and push scientists to dig deeper. Gliese 367 b (or Tahay) is definitely a weirdo. This is…
Alleged “alien” fossils in Mexico: does the truth exist?
The fossilized bodies, displayed in a display case by journalist and UFO researcher Jaime Maussan, were “a thousand years old.” At a special meeting of…
