A newly spotted space rock has just shattered the speed record for large asteroids, spinning so quickly that by all ...

Way out there in the asteroid belt is an object that's spinning so fast, scientists are surprised it hasn't flown apart.

Astronomers say the Vera C. Rubin Observatory has detected an asteroid that spins faster than other space rocks of its size.

The asteroid, 2025 MN45, completes a full rotation once every 1.88 minutes, meaning it must have a very high strength to keep ...

2025 MN45 isn't the overall spin-rate record holder. Astronomers have found a number of small asteroids — those just a few ...

A demonstration of an ancient device reveals how simple physics can create extremely fast spinning motion, showing that clever engineering existed long before modern machines. BBC suffers worst ever ...

Astronomers have detected spacetime itself being dragged and twisted by a spinning black hole for the first time. The discovery, seen during a star’s violent destruction, confirms a prediction made ...

Stargazers and scientists are getting a holiday present from the cosmos this week. 3I/ATLAS, an interstellar comet, will get “closest” to Earth on Friday, December 19, as part of its journey across ...

Society. Baba Vanga's chilling warning about a "new light in the sky" resurfaces after the discovery of 3I/ATLAS Science. Avi Loeb insists on the peculiarity of 3I/ATLAS: "Such a large anti-tail had ...

A violent stellar disruption recorded in 2024 has given astronomers their most comprehensive evidence yet of a black hole twisting the very fabric of spacetime around itself. This effect is known as ...
