Astronomers Get to the Heart of Mira A's Latest Outburst February 18, 2026
Just a few hundred light-years from Earth, the famous variable star Mira A is huffing and puffing its outer layers to space. Its most recent mass-loss event ejected more material at higher velocity than in past events. A team of astronomers led by Theo Khouri, Chalmers University in Sweden discovered two large clouds of material […]
Interstellar Visitor 3I/ATLAS Finally Wakes Up, Spewing Organics and Water February 18, 2026
There’s been plenty in the news about 3I/ATLAS over the course of the past 8 months. Our third confirmed interstellar visitor went behind the Sun during its closest approach, but reemerged in December with plenty of eyes watching it. Papers describing what it looks like following its closest brush with the power of a star […]
How Supermassive Black Holes Stifle Star Formation In Neighbouring Galaxies February 18, 2026
We know that supermassive black holes can inhibit star formation in their galaxies. But new research and JWST observations show that the most luminous quasars can actually suppress star formation in neighbouring galaxies. SMBH may have played a more pronounced role in shaping the early Universe than previously thought.
Martian Volcanoes Could Be Hiding Massive Glaciers Under A Blanket of Ash February 18, 2026
When we think of ice on Mars, we typically think of the poles, where we can see it visibly through probes and even ground-based telescopes. But the poles are hard to access, and even more so given the restrictions on exploration there due to potential biological contamination. Scientists have long hoped to find water closer […]
A Pulsar Near The Milky Way's Galactic Center Is A Perfect Set-up To Test General Relativity February 18, 2026
The Milky Way's center is densely-packed with stars and there should be abundant pulsars there. But for some reason, we can't find them. New research presents a candidate pulsar in the GC. It's close enough to the Milky Way's supermassive black hole that it can test Einstein's General Relativity. But first, it has to be […]
