Astronomers Uncover Massive Magnetic Toroids in Milky Way Halo
TEHRAN (ANA)- Astrophysicists have discovered large magnetic toroids in the Milky Way’s halo, which impact cosmic ray propagation and the physics of interstellar space.
Glasses in Moon's Soil Preserve Water from Multiple Sources
TEHRAN (ANA)- A team of scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences has discovered that glassy materials within the lunar soil samples, which were brought back by the country's Chang'e-5 lunar exploration mission, contain hydroxyl and molecular water generated from a variety of sources.
Mars Express Discovers Mysterious Martian ‘Spiders’
TEHRAN (ANA)- The European Space Agency’s Mars Express has snapped the telltale traces of ‘spiders’ scattered across the southern polar region of Mars.
Scientists Finally Confirm What's inside Moon
TEHRAN (ANA)- A thorough investigation found that the inner core of the Moon is, in fact, a solid ball with a density similar to that of iron and researchers hope this will help settle a long debate about whether the Moon's inner heart is solid or molten, and lead to a more accurate understanding of the Moon's history – and, by extension, that of the Solar System.
Researchers Develop New Algorithm to Recognize Coronal Mass Ejections
TEHRAN (ANA)- Researchers in China have developed a new algorithm to automatically derive kinematic parameters of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) based on machine learning.
Next-Gen Refueling Spacecraft to Revitalize Satellites in Geostationary Orbit
TEHRAN (ANA)- The Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) is developing a spacecraft named Astroscale Prototype Servicer for Refueling (APS-R) as part of a $25.5 million project with the U.S. Space Force.
Zombie Stars at Milky Way’s Core Defy Time
TEHRAN (ANA)- Northwestern University’s new research using simulations of 1,000 stars around the Milky Way’s supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*, reveals that high-speed stellar collisions lead to the formation of youthful-looking stars.
Webb Unlocks Secrets of Universe’s First Light
TEHRAN (ANA)- Utilizing data from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, scientists have unveiled the earliest starlight spectra, revealing low-mass galaxies’ central role in the universe’s dawn.
Astronomers Unveil Dark Matter’s Role in Galaxy Evolution
