Scientists have refined Jupiter’s size and shape using modern radio signal observations, finding the giant planet slightly smaller and more flattened than earlier estimates. Though the difference is only a few kilometres, researchers say it greatly improves models of Jupiter’s interior, gravity, and atmospheric structure, offering deeper insights into gas giant fo…

The Conjuring: Last Rites is the chilling final chapter of one of horror’s most beloved franchises, bringing Ed and Lorraine Warren back into the spotlight to face a force darker than ever before. Like the previous films, this chapter blends fear, faith, and mystery, but with significantly higher stakes. The film introduces a haunting tale based on the real-life Smurl…

Google on Friday released the first public beta of Android 17, giving public users and developers an early look at the next major version of its mobile operating system. As per the Mountain View-based tech giant, the update introduces a range of refinements focused on performance, privacy, and developer tools. Google also highlighted a fundamental shift in the way new…

NASA’s NEOWISE infrared telescope has provided striking evidence that a massive star in the Andromeda galaxy collapsed directly into a black hole without exploding as a supernova. The star, M31-2014-DS1, faded dramatically in visible light while leaving a faint infrared glow from surrounding dust. Astronomers say this rare “failed supernova” offers one of the cl…

Astronomers have discovered a rare inside-out planetary system around LHS 1903, where a rocky planet exists beyond gas giants. Using ESA’s CHEOPS telescope, researchers found evidence that planets formed one after another in a gas-depleted environment, challenging long-standing theories about how planetary systems form and evolve across the galaxy.

Google has introduced a new functionality for its Chrome browser on Android devices, which allows users to pin important tabs. This means that whenever a user opens the Chrome browser on their Android phone, the pinned tab will always appear on top as they left it. It offers similar functionality and convenience as the pinned tab feature on Google’s Chrome browser f…

NASA has successfully flown its 40-inch CATNLF laminar-flow wing model aboard an F-15B aircraft in January 2026. The test confirmed the drag-reducing design performs safely in flight. By maintaining smooth airflow over wings, the technology could improve fuel efficiency by up to 10 percent, lowering airline costs and reducing carbon emissions significantly.

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has released a striking new image of the Egg Nebula, capturing a Sun-like star in its brief pre-planetary phase. Twin beams of light pierce glowing shells of dust and gas, offering astronomers a rare close-up view of stellar death about 1,000 light-years from Earth.

Oppo K14x 5G, Realme Narzo 90x 5G, and Redmi 15 5G compete in India’s budget 5G segment with similar pricing and large displays. While the Realme model begins at Rs. 13,999, the Oppo and Redmi options start at Rs. 14,999. Oppo and Realme use the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chip, while Redmi offers a Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 SoC and a sharper full-HD+ screen. All pack big bat…

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has revealed early galaxies that appear almost as old as the universe itself. By analyzing 31 galaxies at high redshift, researchers estimated stellar ages of around 600 million years—close to the universe’s age at that epoch. One galaxy may even seem older than the universe, posing a potential challenge to the standard Lambda-C…
