Building blocks of life detected in ice outside the Milky Way for first time ever

Using JWST, researchers detected several complex carbon-based molecules in the ice around ST6, a developing star in the Large Magellanic Cloud. (Image credit: NASA/ESA/CSA/JPL-Caltech/M. Sewiło et al. (2025)) For the first time, scientists have spotted multiple complex building blocks of life in the ice around a star outside the Milky Way. Using the James WebbContinue Reading

Astronomers Detect Coronal Mass Ejections from Young Sun-Like Star

Down here on Earth we don’t usually notice, but the Sun is frequently ejecting huge masses of plasma into space. These are called coronal mass ejections (CMEs). Using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based telescopes in Japan and Korea, astronomers have now detected signatures of a multi-temperature CME from EK Draconis, a young G-typeContinue Reading
