The genesis of Earth, approximately 4.5 billion years ago, presents a compelling saga of cosmic phenomena and geological evolution. Initial conditions on the newborn planet featured extreme temperatures, rendering the presence of ice impossible. In light of this inhospitable climate, the question arises: Where did Earth’s water originate? The prevailing belief among scientists is that

In the vast expanse of the universe, high-energy particles rain down on Earth, often unnoticed due to their elusive nature. Neutrinos, fundamental particles that roam freely and interact minimally with matter, are the stars of this phenomenon. Recently, scientists made a groundbreaking discovery that has reignited interest in particle astrophysics: the detection of a neutrino

The enigma of dark matter has perplexed scientists for decades. It is a significant component of the universe, constituting roughly 27% of its total mass-energy content, yet remains largely invisible and ungraspable. Our comprehension of the cosmos hinges on understanding dark matter’s role, as it influences the motion of galaxies and the overall structure of

In late December 2024, astronomers made a noteworthy discovery of a near-Earth object, assigned the designation 2024 YR4. This asteroid marks the 117th rock identified during the later part of the month, immediately categorized due to its relatively recent findings. As with any newly discovered asteroid, the immediate focus shifted to understanding its orbit and

Recently, astronomers have encountered an extraordinary astronomical phenomenon that has left them both astonished and puzzled. This cosmic event, designated EP240408a, was unveiled on 8 April 2024 by the Einstein Probe, an X-ray space telescope. Initially mistaken for a typical gamma-ray burst, which releases intense X-rays, further observations conducted across a spectrum of wavelengths have

The COVID-19 pandemic profoundly altered global human activities, leading to widespread lockdowns that dramatically reduced carbon emissions. In 2024, a consequential study suggested that this sudden decrease in activity could have influenced temperatures on the Moon. The hypothesis proposed that with fewer businesses operational and individuals adhering to stay-at-home directives, heat radiation emanating from Earth
