  1. #TachyonBeam #astronomy #comet #InterstellarComet #3IATLAS

    An article published in the journal "Nature Astronomy" reports the results of a study on the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, which indicate that it formed in a much colder environment than the solar system. This conclusion was reached by a team of researchers using observations conducted with the ALMA radio telescope.

    SpaceX's Crew Dragon Freedom spacecraft docked with the Harmony module of the International Space Station, completing the first part of its Crew-12 mission that began with its launch about 34 hours earlier. Andrey Fedyaev, Jack Hathaway, Jessica Meir, and Sophie Adenot join the Expedition 74 crew.

    A little while ago, SpaceX's Crew Dragon Freedom spacecraft blasted off atop a Falcon 9 rocket from the Kennedy Space Center in its Crew-12 or SpaceX Crew-12 mission. After almost exactly ten minutes, it successfully separated from the rocket's last stage and went en route to carry out its mission.

    A little while ago, SpaceX's Crew Dragon Endeavour spacecraft completed its Crew-11, or SpaceX Crew-11, mission for NASA with a successful splashdown. Aboard were astronauts Zena Cardman, Michael Fincke, and Kimiya Yui, and cosmonaut Oleg Platonov, who had arrived at the International Space Station on August 2, 2025, as part of Expedition 73/74.

  8. #TachyonBeam #astronomy #galaxies #SMBH #AGN

    A rare example of three active galactic nuclei in three merging galaxies has been discovered using two radio telescopes: the VLA and the VLBA. The triple system is cataloged as J1218/1219+1035. This targeted study, conducted by a team of researchers at various radio frequencies, has identified only the third case of a triple active galactic nucleus, the first confirmed through radio observations.

  9. #TachyonBeam #astronomy #cosmology

    #NASA has published the first cosmic map generated using observations from its #SPHEREx space telescope. In particular, these observations include 102 wavelengths in the near-infrared. What NASA has defined as 102 colors offer a wealth of different information about the observed objects, valuable in a variety of cosmological studies. The wealth of information is such that NASA treats them as if they had obtained 102 different maps.

  10. #TachyonBeam #astronomy #exoplanets #pulsar #JWST

    An article published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters reports the results of a study of a gas giant exoplanet cataloged as PSR J2322-2650b, which has a completely abnormal atmosphere composed above all of helium and carbon. The star is a pulsar, adding another unusual element to the system. PSR J2322-2650b can't be explained by current models of planetary formation.

    A few hours ago, cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov and Alexey Zubritsky and astronaut Jonny Kim returned to Earth on the Soyuz MS-27 spacecraft, which landed in Kazakhstan. They had reached the International Space Station on April 8, 2025, as part of a normal crew rotation. The capsule landed on its side, an event that can occur due to reentry conditions, but the crew members suffered no injuries.

    An article published in the journal "Science Advances" reports the first reconstruction ever of the shape of a Type II supernova in its early stages. A team of researchers led by Professor Yi Yang of Tsinghua University in Beijing, China, used observations conducted with ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile to study the supernova cataloged as SN 2024ggi on April 11, 2024, the day after the explosion began.

  13. #TachyonBeam #astronomy #ESO #4MOST

    On October 18, the 4-meter Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST), mounted on ESO's VISTA telescope in Chile, saw its so-called first light. With its system made of 2,436 optical fibers, 4MOST can capture light from a field of view with a diameter of up to 2.5 degrees. The light is directed into three spectrographs that divide it into color components in the visible light range, providing individual spectra.

    It was the afternoon in the USA when SpaceX conducted a new flight test of its Super Heavy rocket and Starship prototypes, launched from its base in Boca Chica, Texas. This is the 11th test involving the entire system of Elon Musk's company. They are advanced prototypes with the Super Heavy identified as Booster 15, at its second flight, and the Starship Block 2 identified as Starship 38 or Ship38 or simply S38.

  15. #TachyonBeam #astronomy #NeutronStar #pulsar #Calvera

    An article published in the journal "Astronomy & Astrophysics" describes a candidate supernova remnant that was associated with the pulsar nicknamed Calvera. A team of researchers led by Emanuele Greco conducted observations and analyses of a decidedly unusual pair, as finding it approximately 6,500 light-years above the Milky Way's galactic plane was surprising.
