Astronomers Just Caught a Giant Planet in the Act of Forming

Astronomers have confirmed the youngest known planet, a Jupiter-size baby world less than a million years old that formed far faster than expected. Astronomers have confirmed the youngest known planet ever observed, a world less than 1 million years old that is still surrounded by the material from which it formed. Known as Elias 2-24 […]

Two Dead Stars Are Racing Around Each Other Every 6.2 Minutes

A pair of white dwarfs race around each other every 374 seconds, creating a rhythmic X-ray beacon that could reveal powerful gravitational waves. Every 6.2 minutes, two dead stars complete an entire orbit around each other. The system, eRASSU J060839.5–704014, or eRASSU J0608, is so compact that material from one white dwarf appears to strike […]

Scientists Reassess a Major Risk of Breast Cancer Screening

Overdiagnosis in breast cancer screening may be less common than previously thought, according to a new study. Mammography, an X-ray test used to screen for breast cancer, can find cancers earlier than they would otherwise be diagnosed. It can also detect cancers that would never have caused symptoms or problems during a woman’s lifetime, an […]
