Researchers discover mysterious mini-Neptunes
Researchers discovered mini-Neptunes around four red dwarfs using observations from a global network of ground-based telescopes and the TESS space telescope. These four mini-Neptunes are close to their parent stars, and the three of them are likely t.....»»
Video: Eclipse-making double-satellite Proba-3
Proba-3 is ESA's—and the world's—first precision formation flying mission. A pair of satellites will fly together relative to the sun so that one casts a precisely-controlled shadow onto the other, to create a prolonged solar eclipse in orbit......»»
Astronomers discover parallel disks and jets erupting from a pair of young stars
Most of the universe is invisible to the human eye. The building blocks of stars are only revealed in wavelengths that are outside of the visible spectrum. Astronomers recently used two very different, and very powerful, telescopes to discover twin d.....»»

A strikingly natural coincidence: Researchers find heating gallium nitride and magnesium forms a superlattice
A study led by Nagoya University in Japan revealed that a simple thermal reaction of gallium nitride (GaN) with metallic magnesium (Mg) results in the formation of a distinctive superlattice structure. This represents the first time researchers have.....»»
Carlos Ghosn"s ex-lawyer says Nissan chief would not have fled if charged in U.S.
Takashi Takano says Japan’s so-called hostage justice system and its “inhumane” bail conditions compelled Carlos Ghosn, the once venerated chairman of the Renault Nissan Mitsubishi automotive empire, to flee in 2019......»»
Small, cool and sulfurous exoplanet may help write recipe for planetary formation
A surprising yellow haze of sulfur dioxide in the atmosphere of a gas "dwarf" exoplanet about 96 light years away from our own solar system makes the planet a prime target for scientists trying to understand how worlds are formed......»»
Entangled neutrinos may lead to heavier element formation
Elements are the building blocks of every chemical in the universe, but how and where the different elements formed is not entirely understood. A new paper in The Astrophysical Journal by University of Wisconsin–Madison physics professor Baha Balan.....»»
