"One of the deepest questions in cosmology is whether the universe stretches on forever or has a limit. The observable evidence shows that space itself is expanding yet this expansion does not imply an edge or center its not an explosion into something but an increase in distance between all points everywhere at once. Theres no outside or beyond because everything that exists is contained within space-time itself. In this sense asking what lies beyond the universe is like asking whats north of the North Pole: the question loses meaning within the framework of relativity. Still the ultimate"

"A new study suggests that the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS didnt originate near us at all but rather may have been launched from the boundary region between the Milky Ways thin disk and its more ancient thick disk offering a rare window into the early galaxy. Using data from ESAs Gaia telescope researchers retraced the comets path over the last XX million years calculating its interactions with dozens of nearby stars. None of them appear capable of having significantly altered its trajectory implying that 3I/ATLAS was already on a high-speed path long before entering our neighborhood. That"

"Using XX years of data from ESAs Swarm satellite constellation scientists have identified that Earths magnetic field particularly over the South Atlantic is weakening in a way thats both accelerating and shifting. The region known as the South Atlantic Anomaly first recognized in the 19th century has grown significantly between 2014 and 2025 expanding by an area nearly half the size of continental Europe. Intriguingly the most rapid loss of field strength since 2020 has occurred over the Atlantic southwest of Africa suggesting that the anomaly is not a monolithic zone but is evolving unevenly"

"Researchers from the University of Bremens ZARM institute and the Transylvanian University of Braov propose that the universes accelerating expansion might be explained without invoking mysterious dark energy. Traditionally cosmologists have relied on general relativity combined with the Friedmann equations inserting an ad hoc dark energy term to match observations. But the team has extended general relativity using a more general geometric framework known as Finsler gravity.

"In a recent experiment physicists have for the first time recreated in a laboratory setting what an object would appear to look like if it were moving at an astonishing XXXX % of light speed. Rather than actually accelerating anything to relativistic velocities a task that would demand infeasible energy they used ultra-fast laser pulses and precisely timed camera shutters to record slices of light reflecting off static objects.

"Using new infrared images from the #JWST astronomers have captured vivid detail of the colossal jet of subatomic particles blasting from M87* the same supermassive black hole that was the first ever imaged. These images not only confirm known features of the main jet at a level of clarity never before seen but also reveal a counter-jet shooting in the opposite direction. The jet is traveling at nearly the speed of light and the infrared views bridge what was known from radio and optical wavelengths allowing scientists to better map its structure and how it emerges from the black holes core."

"When the #JWST embarked on its deep-sky surveys one of the most intriguing discoveries was a set of ultra-compact deeply red-coloured objects dubbed Little Red Dots (LRDs) which appeared to be galaxies from the very early Universe. Although there is no definitive consensus yet astronomers currently favour two leading interpretations. One is the stellar-only scenario: these LRDs are intensely star-forming dust-rich galaxies whose high density and dust content redden them making them compact red and unusually small by galaxy standards. The other is the massive-black-hole + galaxy hypothesis:"
