US authorities are investigating a concerning pattern of American scientists, with access to sensitive research, going missing or dying since mid-2024. The White House, FBI, and Congress are collaborating to uncover potential links, including foreign actor involvement. Multiple agencies are reviewing at least eleven cases, some dating back to 2022, to assess national security implications.

The researchers tied to sensitive US nuclear and aerospace programs have died or disappeared in recent years. While a federal investigation is on, these cases appear to echo a broader global pattern — one that remains difficult to explain and even harder to conclusively link

Oscar-winning director Steven Spielberg has made headlines by discussing his initial role in the creation of 'Interstellar.' After spending a year nurturing the project, he ultimately chose to hand the reins to Christopher Nolan, acknowledging that this decision significantly improved the film.

astrophysicist Priyamvada Natarajan discusses the challenges facing international students in the US due to shrinking research funding and the transformative impact of AI on scientific methods. She highlights her journey from India, emphasizing the importance of curiosity and lifelong learning, and her contributions to understanding dark matter and black holes.

A series of disappearances and deaths involving individuals linked to sensitive US nuclear and aerospace programs between July 2024 and February 2026 has sparked speculation. While some cases remain baffling mysteries, others have clear explanations, suggesting a complex mix of events rather than a single conspiracy. The article explores these incidents, highlighting the real overlaps and the rampant speculation.

Avi Loeb has urged NASA to redirect the Curiosity Rover to examine a mysterious 20-centimetre cylindrical object spotted in Gale Crater. While likely debris from the rover’s landing system, its origin remains unconfirmed. Loeb argues that investigating it should take priority over routine exploration, though NASA has not yet responded publicly.

Scientists, including an Indian-origin astrophysicist from the University of Sheffield, have made progress in understanding the creation of heavy chemical elements in the universe. The team used a high-end camera called ULTRACAM to pinpoint the location of a gamma-ray burst, indicating the start of a kilonova explosion. Kilonovae, which occur when two dense neutron stars merge, are believed to produce heavy elements like gold, platinum, and uranium.

astrophysicists have for long baffled with the universe’s “missing mass” puzzle . Now, an Australian student claims to have finally cracked the scientific conundrum.

Well-known astrophysicist and provost of Charusat University, Pankaj Joshi, has bagged a global recognition for his work. He has been elected as a fellow at The World Academy of Sciences (TWAS).

Science City, in association with British Council, organized an interactive talk on the topic of astrophysics on Thursday morning. The talk was conducted by Jen Gupta, an astrophysicist and science communicator.
