Astrophysicists Establish the Presence of Water in Star Dust

Interstellar medium refers to the matter between the stars in a galaxy. It contains gas as well as a significant amount of dust. At a certain period of time, planets and stars evolved in such an environment, because the dust particles can cluster together and combine into celestial bodies.

NASA’s IRIS Reveals the Heating Mechanism of Solar Corona

Scientists have recently described the first ever distinct images of nanojets (bright thin lights that move in a perpendicular direction to the magnetic structures in the Sun’s atmosphere, known as the corona) in a process that exposes the presence of one of the promising coronal heating candidates: nanoflares.

Researchers Detect Distinctive Signature of Black Holes

An international group of astrophysicists has discovered unique signatures of black hole event horizon, unquestionably differentiating them from neutron stars—objects, similar to black holes in terms of size and mass but confined inside a hard surface.
