The universe is full of mysteries, but one of its most fascinating clues to its origins is the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB)—a faint glow of radiation that fills the entire sky. Often called the “afterglow of the Big Bang,” the CMB provides crucial evidence for how our universe was born and evolved over billions of […]

Stars are the building blocks of the universe, illuminating galaxies and shaping the cosmic environment. But just like living beings, stars have a life cycle—they are born, they evolve, and eventually, they die. The journey of a star is determined by its mass, leading to vastly different fates, from white dwarfs to supernovae and even

The universe is vast and full of unknowns, but one of the most perplexing mysteries in modern astrophysics is dark matter. Unlike stars, planets, and galaxies, dark matter does not emit, absorb, or reflect light, making it completely invisible. Yet, scientists believe it makes up around 85% of the matter in the universe. How do

For centuries, humanity has looked up at the night sky and wondered: Are we alone in the universe? With the discovery of exoplanets—planets that orbit stars beyond our solar system—scientists are closer than ever to answering this age-old question. The search for habitable worlds is one of the most exciting frontiers in astronomy, and the
