TEHRAN (ANA)- A ground-breaking new discovery by University of Leeds scientists could transform the way astronomers understand some of the biggest and most common stars in the Universe.

TEHRAN (ANA)- The James Webb Space Telescope has spotted quartz in exoplanet atmosphere and the new discovery once again shows how strange planets outside the Solar System can get, and astronomers are thrilled.

TEHRAN (ANA)- Astronomers from Macquarie University have detected the most distant ‘fast radio burst’ (FRB) ever, providing a potential tool to measure the Universe’s hidden matter.

TEHRAN (ANA)- Fast radio bursts (FRBs), intense radio energy bursts, are a perplexing astronomical enigma and the University of Tokyo’s recent research has found similarities between FRBs and earthquakes, suggesting that they might be caused by “starquakes” on neutron stars.

TEHRAN (ANA)- One of the greatest strengths of NASA's James Webb Space Telescope is its ability to give astronomers detailed views of areas where new stars are being born and the latest example, showcased here in a new image from Webb's Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI), is NGC 346 -- the brightest and largest star-forming region in the Small Magellanic Cloud.

TEHRAN (ANA)- Harvard astronomers at the Center for Astrophysics/Harvard and Smithsonian (CfA) have performed the first calculations that fully explain the Milky Way’s warp, with compelling evidence pointing to the Milky Way's envelopment in an off-kilter halo of dark matter.

TEHRAN (ANA)- An astronomy and astrophysics professor of the Penn State Extraterrestrial Intelligence Center (PSTI) recommends that Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) researchers refine the search by looking for indications of activity.

TEHRAN (ANA)- Plasma rain in the sun’s atmosphere makes a splash when it lands and new observations from the European Space Agency’s Solar Orbiter have revealed previously unseen details of how this coronal rain falls, including bright fireball effects and sudden upward surges in plasma.

TEHRAN (ANA)- The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has confirmed that India successfully launched its maiden solar mission named "Aditya-L1", onboard the PSLV-C57 rocket (in XL configuration).

TEHRAN (ANA)- Scientists, led by the University of Plymouth, have called for a legally-binding treaty to ensure Earth’s orbit is not harmed by space junk as the global space industry continues to grow.
