  1. That simple fact isn't just about astronomy.
    It quietly reminds us that our own experience shapes the assumptions we carry every day. Step outside Earth's familiar rhythm, and even time begins to look different.

  2. 🍑 A major sexual health clinic in Melbourne has seen a rise in women testing positive for gonorrhoea over the past decade, according to Australian researchers from Monash University and the University of Melbourne. The team analysed data from the clinic between 2015 and 2024 to look at the characteristics of women contracting gonorrhoea amid the rise in the sexually transmitted disease among women in recent years. The researchers say gonorrhoea positivity increased from 1.3% in 2015 to 2.3% in 2024. The researchers say the women diagnosed were predominantly young, had multiple casual male partners and used condoms inconsistently. Oral gonorrhoea saw the largest increase in cases during the study, they say. Most of these cases are asymptomatic and can only be picked up through regular screening, the researchers caution.

  3. Astronomers Discover a Brand-New Type of Object: Part Black Hole, Part Star

    Credit: Jose-Luis Olivares/MIT At the cosmic dawn, the universe was sprinkled with giant black holes—monstrosities so huge that scientists are still struggling to explain how they could have even existed. The answer may lie in a never-before-seen object from this cosmic era. In a paper published today in Nature, astronomers report the discovery of an extremely unusual, bright spot of red from the early universe. Externally, it looks like an enormous star about the size of the entire solar […]

  8. Black Holes are Mysterious, Yet Also Deceptively Simple

    NASA/JPL Physicists consider black holes one of the most mysterious objects that exist. Ironically, they’re also considered one of the simplest. For years, physicists like me have been looking to prove that black holes are more complex than they seem. And a newly approved European space mission called LISA will help us with this hunt. Research from the 1970s suggests that you can comprehensively describe a black hole using only three physical attributes – their mass, charge and […]
