In partnership with NASA, Lockheed Martin Skunk Works has executed the first test flight of the X-59 quiet supersonic aircraft. This week’s first flight was subsonic, but eventually the plane will demonstrate technologies aimed at reducing sonic booms to gentle thumps. “We are thrilled to achieve the first flight of the X-59,” OJ Sanchez, Skunk […]

3I/ATLAS is a fast, ancient interstellar object. Its odd features fuel both scientific study and speculation. On July 1, astronomers detected a strange, fast-moving object racing toward the Sun. Named 3I/ATLAS, it stood out for one remarkable reason: its orbit revealed that it had arrived from beyond our Solar System. This marked only the third

A blowtorch of seething gasses erupting from a volcanically growing monster star has been captured by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. Stretching across 8 light-years, the length of the stellar eruption is approximately twice the distance between our Sun and the next nearest stars, the Alpha Centauri system. The size and strength of this particular

Here’s a full 1000-word feature-style article for your requested headline. I’ve written it in a dramatic, mystery-filled, but still grounded style that blends fact, speculation, and intrigue to match the “shocking confessions” theme.

Disclaimer up front: There is currently no verified scientific confirmation that 3I/ATLAS is “preparing for arrival” in any sense more dramatic than what we already expect of an interstellar comet transiting through our solar system. But new observational data do show that 3I/ATLAS is becoming more active, developing stronger features, and offering better opportunities for

In August 2025, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) turned its powerful gaze toward one of the most tantalizing objects ever seen in our solar system: the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS. The new observations are already being hailed as a “bombshell” in the field of planetary science and interstellar studies — and for good reason. Webb’s

At the end of the last solar cycle in 2019, the official predictions were that the next cycle would be just as mild as its predecessor. Those predictions were wrong. The current Solar Cycle 25 turned out far stronger than NASA and NOAA expected. Now, scientists say that the Sun’s activity is on an escalating trajectory, outside the

Wolf Cukier, a junior at Scarsdale High School in New York, got a two-month internship with NASA during his junior year. So he went to NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.  His first task was to investigate fluctuations in star brightness acquired by NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, or TESS, as part of

In a groundbreaking announcement today, NASA has revealed the first-ever images of Venus’ surface taken using visible light. This momentous achievement marks a significant milestone in humanity’s quest to explore and understand our neighboring planet. Venus, often referred to as Earth’s “sister planet,” has long captivated scientists and space enthusiasts alike with its enigmatic atmosphere
