Earth’s ‘New’ Quasi-Moon Has Been Hiding in Plain Sight for 60 Years

gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2025-10-05 04:35:15

Scientists have discovered a previously unknown quasi-moon that’s been shadowing Earth’s orbit for decades, undetected, and will likely remain there for a few decades more. The quasi-moon, named 2025 PN7, is one of around seven quasi-satellites that share Earth’s orbit around the Sun. The Pan-STARRS observatory in Hawaii spotted the quasi-moon on August 2, according to a paper published in Research Notes of the American Astronomical Society. The discovery prompted scientists to search through a

Have You Ever Seen a Black Moon? Neither Have We, but One Is Coming This Weekend

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-31 12:27:00

Late last year, we were treated to four consecutive supermoons, where the moon is the biggest and brightest that it can possibly be in the night sky. Have you ever wondered what it's called when the opposite happens? There is a name for it, and it's happening this weekend -- the emergence of the black moon. The term black moon isn't an official term, but rather a nickname for when a new moon fulfills certain conditions. Typically, each season has three new moons just like it has three full moon

Scientists Find a New Moon Orbiting Uranus

wired.com Jorge Garay 2025-11-02 06:26:53

A team of astronomers has found what appears to be a previously undiscovered moon orbiting Uranus. If confirmed, this finding would mean the gigantic blue-green ice planet would have 29 moons. The discovery was made using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), extending the instrument’s list of achievements and raising expectations that other new discoveries might be made within the solar system. With JWST’s infrared camera, the researchers took ten 40-minute exposures of Uranus and detected a

Astronomers Discover a Previously Hidden Moon Orbiting Uranus

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-11-06 17:58:03

Astronomers spotted a never-before-seen, bite-sized moon orbiting Uranus, bringing the ice giant’s follower count to 29. The moon is so small and faint—well below the detection threshold of NASA’s Voyager 2 probe—that scientists believe Uranus may host many more undiscovered, tiny moons. The moon, provisionally named S/2025 U1, first entered the view of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) on February 2, 2025. Further imaging led by the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) shows that it sits at

James Webb Spots Mysterious Object Orbiting Uranus

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-07 08:24:05

"It’s like staring into the headlight of a car and trying to look at a fly." Circle Strafe NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has spotted a tiny moon orbiting Uranus, expanding the number of the planet's known satellites to 29. In early February, the space observatory's Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) caught the minuscule and still-unnamed object orbiting the gas giant at a distance of 35,000 miles. "It’s a small moon but a significant discovery, which is something that even NASA’s Voyager 2 sp

No joke: Science has found a new teeny, tiny moon orbiting Uranus. NASA announced on Tuesday that the James Webb Space Telescope found yet another moon floating around Uranus, an ice giant that already had 13 other known moons. The discovery was made thanks to images taken by the James Webb Space Telescope. A team from the Southwest Research Institute noticed an unfamiliar object that appeared to be orbiting Uranus. The images have been stitched together in a slideshow on YouTube of the moon, w

Webb telescope spots a new moon orbiting Uranus

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-09 03:29:32

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) continues to bear fruit. Images captured by the floating watchtower revealed a previously unknown moon orbiting Uranus. The discovery, made on February 2, increases the planet's moon tally to 29. The moon was easy to miss: It's only an estimated six miles wide. It's located about 35,000 miles from Uranus' center, orbiting the planet's equatorial plane. The moon has a nearly circular orbit, suggesting it could have formed near its current location. NASA's s

A Closer Look At Uranus’s Moons Reveals a Surprising Dark Side

gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2026-03-14 10:00:19

The moons that orbit Uranus are already known to have unusual characteristics: some are heavily cratered, others have tectonic features or a patchwork of ridges and cliffs. Using the Hubble space telescope, scientists took a closer look at the surface of Uranus’s four largest moons and discovered something rather unexpected. For the study, a team of astronomers went searching for signs of interactions between Uranus’s magnetic field and its four largest moons: Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Obero
