On the 18th of March, 1965, the Soviet Union achieved a historic milestone in the race for space dominance when Alexei Leonov became the first man to ever walk in space. The mission was dubbed the Voskhod 2 mission and was a major milestone in the history of space exploration, with the USSR beating the…
The notion of humans inhabiting the Moon has long been relegated to science fiction, but recent scientific breakthroughs indicate that it is not far-fetched to think that it will become a reality in the near future. Scientists are working hard to come up with creative ways to design lunar habitats that are light, strong, and…
Indian research into the Moon is shifting toward deeper geological exploration rather than surface-level research alone. Research conducted by the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, in association with the Physical Research Laboratory, explores the formation of ancient rocks on the Moon and the implications for its internal structure. The research is based on the processes…
In the temperate rainforests of Chile’s Alerce Costero National Park, deep in the ground, is an ancient conifer called ‘Gran Abuelo’ that has been protecting a hidden secret for thousands of years. A recent study published in the journal Biodiversity and Conservation has revealed the tree’s greatest value lies in what is hidden beneath the…
A recent instance in which a space mission did not proceed as planned was that of a Russian cargo spacecraft en route to the International Space Station (ISS), which experienced a technical glitch in its journey to dock with the ISS.

Concrete has been the backbone of construction for centuries. Roads, bridges, skyscrapers, and all of it rely on the same old inert material. It is hard, durable, and predictable. But a new material is quietly challenging that norm. It grows, breathes, and even heals its own cracks. Scientists have created a living wall material that…
Gold was not born on our planet Earth; it was forged in a violent ‘cosmic forge’ far beyond our solar system. Research published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters identifies a ‘missing link’ in the cosmos, proving that gold existed in the early universe long before rare star collisions could create it, with the identification of…
Although the concept seems like something from science fiction, science is rapidly adopting it. Researchers have started creating ‘cyborg cockroaches,’ which are live insects equipped with tiny electronic ‘backpacks’ that allow them to navigate areas that are too small or hazardous for humans. The potential application of this discovery in pipeline inspection, where these insects…
The night sky is like a picture with lots of stars. Now people are getting really worried about what’s happening to it. Astronomers around the world are saying we need to be careful. Two plans are causing a lot of trouble. One plan is to put up a bunch of mirrors in space that will…
The sky could host a brief but remarkable event in early April 2026. Astronomers are closely tracking a newly discovered sungrazing comet, officially named C/2026 A1 MAPS. As reported by Universe Today, it was first observed in January by a team operating telescopes in Chile’s Atacama Desert. What makes this comet notable is not just…
It was a Saturday afternoon in Texas when something big happened. A loud boom was heard over the Houston area. People around saw a fireball going across the sky. One woman said something crazier happened to her. She claimed a piece of space rock went through her roof. This story got a lot of attention….
