    Solar Storms Are Pulling Satellites Out of Orbit Faster Than Expected
    May 27 2026
    New research shows that when solar activity intensifies, emissions from the Sun heat and expand Earth’s atmosphere, increasing drag on objects in orbit.

    This accelerates the fall of space debris and satellites, especially beyond a critical activity threshold. The findings reshape how operators plan fuel, avoid collisions, and manage long-term traffic in low Earth orbit.

    Inside the Turbulent Birthplaces of Stars

    Astronomers analyzed over 100,000 molecular clouds to uncover how stars form across galaxies. These stellar nurseries turn out to be short-lived, turbulent structures, with only a small fraction of their gas becoming stars before feedback disperses them.

    The results reveal a self-regulating cycle shaped by galactic environment, offering a new, unified view of how galaxies evolve over time.

    From Atmospheres to Surfaces: JWST’s New Exoplanet Breakthrough
    May 25 2026
    Using infrared observations from the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have inferred the surface composition of LHS 3844 b.The planet appears to be a hot, airless super-Earth with a dark, basaltic surface and no signs of Earth-like tectonics, likely covered in radiation-processed dust.

    The result marks a shift from studying exoplanet atmospheres to directly probing their geology.
