How the observatory's infrared vision is reshaping understanding of galaxy formation and the universe's first chapters
The James Webb Space Telescope has continued expanding scientific understanding of the early universe since becoming operational, observing galaxies and cosmic phenomena in unprecedented detail. This guide explains how the telescope works, what it has revealed so far, and why its findings have prompted scientists to revisit some existing theories.
Advances in underwater mapping and exploration technology are revealing new details about the largely uncharted deep ocean
The vast majority of the world's ocean floor remains unmapped in detail, but new underwater exploration technology is steadily changing that. This guide explains how modern deep-sea mapping works, what it has revealed so far, and why understanding the ocean floor matters for science and policy.
Launched on 30 August 2026, Roman is heading to a point a million miles from Earth. Here is what it will do and why astronomers are excited.
NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope launched on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy on 30 August 2026. This guide explains its instruments, its journey to L2, its dark energy and exoplanet surveys and how it compares with Hubble and Webb.
How the largest space telescope ever built is changing what astronomers know about the early universe, exoplanets, and star formation
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), operated jointly by NASA, ESA, and the Canadian Space Agency, has been making infrared observations of the universe since 2022. Its findings on early galaxies, exoplanet atmospheres, and star formation have challenged existing models of cosmology and continue to redefine the field of astronomy.
Comprehensive Knowledge Base & Growth Guide
Climate science explains how Earth's climate system works and why it is changing. This guide introduces the core concepts in accessible terms.
How CRISPR, base editing, and prime editing are moving from lab tool to approved therapy — and the ethical questions that come with them
CRISPR gene-editing technology has moved from a laboratory technique to a source of approved therapies for genetic blood disorders, with newer base- and prime-editing methods now in clinical trials for a wider range of conditions. This overview explains how the technology works, what is approved versus experimental, and the ethical and regulatory debates shaping its future.

From Vyommitra to fruit flies: what ISRO's uncrewed test flight is carrying, and why it is the final checkpoint before Indians fly to space on an Indian rocket
Gaganyaan-1, the uncrewed precursor to India's first human spaceflight, is entering its final preparation phase in 2026 after successful crew-module air drop tests and the integration of the humanoid robot Vyommitra. Here is a complete look at the mission, its payload, its delays, and what comes after it.
Inside the breakthroughs from Google, Microsoft, Atom Computing and QuEra that are turning quantum error correction from theory into engineering
Quantum computing crossed a pivotal threshold in 2026 as multiple companies demonstrated, for the first time, that scaling up quantum error correction makes systems more reliable rather than less. This guide explains what changed, why it matters, and how far the technology still has to go before it becomes commercially transformative.
ISRO is targeting an uncrewed test flight by the end of 2026 as India moves toward sending its own astronauts to space
Gaganyaan is ISRO's program to launch Indian astronauts into orbit aboard an indigenously built spacecraft. With ISRO chairman V Narayanan reaffirming an end-of-2026 target for the first uncrewed test flight, here is a complete explainer on what Gaganyaan involves, how it fits into India's wider space ambitions, and what comes next.
