Growing evidence for evolving Dark Energy could inspire a new model of the Universe
Thursday, 03 July 2025 10:23
he birth, growth and future of our Universe are eternally fascinating.
In the last decades, telescopes have been able to observe the skies with unprecedented precision and sensitivity.
Our research team on the South Pole Telescope is studying how the Universe evolved and has changed over time. We have just released two years' worth of mapping of the infant universe over 1/25th of the LHAASO reveals hidden cosmic engines in high-energy Milky Way survey
Thursday, 03 July 2025 10:23
China's Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) has unveiled a detailed high-energy gamma-ray map of the Milky Way, marking a milestone in the search for the origin of cosmic rays. Through its "Mini Survey of the Milky Way," LHAASO offers the most sensitive view yet of the galaxy in teraelectronvolt (TeV) to petaelectronvolt (PeV) gamma rays.

Venus atmosphere mapped over a decade using Himawari satellite data
Thursday, 03 July 2025 10:23
Infrared imaging from Japan's Himawari-8 and -9 meteorological satellites has enabled researchers to track temperature changes in the upper atmosphere of Venus over a ten-year period. Led by the University of Tokyo, the study uncovered variations in cloud-top temperatures and wave structures by analyzing archived satellite data captured from 2015 to 2025. The results highlight a new use for mete Chinese 3D printing system uses lunar soil to construct habitats
Thursday, 03 July 2025 10:23
A pioneering 3D printing technology developed by Chinese researchers is enabling the creation of lunar structures using only soil collected directly from the Moon, eliminating the need to transport building materials from Earth.
Engineers at the Deep Space Exploration Laboratory in Hefei, Anhui province, have built a working prototype of a lunar regolith 3D printer. According to senior eng Tianwen 2 captures Earth and moon from deep space on asteroid mission
Thursday, 03 July 2025 10:23
China's Tianwen 2 probe has traveled over 12 million kilometers from Earth on its mission to collect asteroid samples, the China National Space Administration (CNSA) announced Tuesday. Now more than a month into its flight, the spacecraft remains fully operational as it follows a transfer trajectory toward its target, near-Earth asteroid 2016 HO3.
The CNSA released two images taken by the
