For thousands of years, humans have been trying to figure out the universe and determine its true extent. And there have been a lot of assumptions and theories. during the 1960s, astronomers became aware of microwave background radiation that was detectable in all directions. Known as the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the existence of this radiation has helped to hone our understanding of how the Universe began. The cosmic microwave background (CMB, CMBR) is faint electromagnetic radiation ...
Something really significant for the field of astronomy was announced last week on december 14th. For the first time in history, a spacecraft has touched the Sun. NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has now flown through the Sun’s upper atmosphere – the corona – and sampled particles and magnetic fields there. The new milestone marks one major step for Parker Solar Probe and one giant leap for solar science. NASA's historic Parker Solar Probe mission is revolutionizing our understanding of the Sun, where ...
Our latest episode is about the most ambitious, complex and the largest telescope ever built by humans . JWST is said to be a time machine which will lead us back to our origin. The James Webb has taken around 30 years and 10 billion $ to develop and it is be bing described as one of the grand scientific endeavour of 21st century. Webb is an outcome of thousands of scientists, engineers and others who have toiled day and night to make it reality.

An astrophysical jet is an astronomical phenomenon where outflows of ionised matter are emitted as an extended beam along the axis of rotation. When this greatly accelerated matter in the beam approaches the speed of light, astrophysical jets become relativistic jets as they show effects from special relativity.
