Dead NASA Satellite Relay 2 May Have Caused Mysterious 2024 Radio Burst
In June 2024, a mysterious 30-nanosecond radio burst baffled scientists — until they traced it back to a surprising source: Relay 2, a NASA satellite offline since 1967. Researchers believe the signal could have been triggered either by a micrometeorite impact or an electrostatic discharge. The discovery, detailed in a new preprint study, highlights how defunct satellites may still interact with space conditions. Experts say the incident could offer a new method for detecting electrostatic discharges from aging satellites and space debris in crowded orbits.
Meta Could Be Fined Every Day If It Does Not Change Ad Model, EU Says

James Webb Telescope Captures First Direct Image of Saturn-Mass Exoplanet
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has reached a major milestone by capturing its first direct image of TWA 7 b, a newly discovered Saturn-mass exoplanet orbiting the young star TWA 7. Using a coronagraph to block starlight, Webb identified the planet embedded in the star’s dusty ring system. TWA 7 b is the smallest exoplanet ever imaged directly. The discovery highlights Webb’s unprecedented precision and paves the way for imaging even smaller, potentially Earth-like planets with future observatories equipped with next-generation coronagraphs and infrared imaging instruments.
James Webb Telescope Detects Methanol and Ethanol Near Young Stars, Hinting at Life’s Origins
NASA’s James Webb Telescope has identified ethanol and methanol isotopes around protostars and HD 100453. These discoveries offer valuable clues about the cosmic origins of life, indicating that comets filled with organic molecules might have seeded early Earth.
Rubin Observatory Captures Distant Nebulae From Chilean Mountaintop
The Rubin Observatory has unveiled its first public images, revealing vivid views of the Lagoon and Trifid Nebulae located 4,000 light-years away. These stunning images mark the beginning of a decade-long sky survey that will capture thousands of nightly exposures, explore dark matter, and transform the way scientists—and the public—observe the dynamic universe.
Apple to Expand Swift Language Support to Android; Sets Up Android Working Group
Apple is bringing support for its Swift programming language to Android, which could offer developers an alternative to Kotlin for app creation on Google's OS. With existing support for Swift on Windows and Linux, Apple has formed an Android Workgroup to ensure continued platform maintenance. This move could streamline cross-platform development for many.
