  New Study Challenges Signs of Life on Exoplanet K2-18b

  A bold claim of alien life on exoplanet K2-18b is now under scrutiny as a new analysis finds the data too weak to support earlier detections of dimethyl sulfide — a potential biosignature. Experts urge caution, noting that more robust, peer-reviewed evidence is needed before confirming the presence of life or habitable conditions on the planet.

  NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope Reveals the Complex Structure of a Planetary Nebula

  NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has unveiled the complex character of NGC 1514, a planetary nebula developing over at least 4,000 years. Only seen in infrared light, the nebula's rings now resemble "fuzzy" clusters set in twisted patterns. A network of sharper holes near the centre stars indicates where faster material punched through.

  James Webb Space Telescope Reveals a Stunning Einstein Ring in Hydrus

  A striking new image from the James Webb Space Telescope reveals an Einstein ring in the Hydrus constellation. The phenomenon occurs when a massive foreground galaxy bends light from a hidden background galaxy, forming a near-perfect ring. This effect, predicted by Einstein’s theory of general relativity, helps astronomers study galaxies from the...
