Astronomers have spotted something strange and spectacular: a mysterious object that keeps emitting pulses every 44 minutes. In a press release from Australia's Curtin University, which was part of the international team that detected the object just 15,000 light-years away in our Milky Way galaxy, astronomers explained that the find was all the more stunning because the signal is coming in the form of both X-rays and radio waves.

Imports of goods into the U.S. dropped a record 19.8% in April, according to estimates released by the U.S. Commerce Department on Friday. That drop is in sharp contrast to a 5.7% uptick of goods imported in March, widely believed to be driven by U.S. retailers and consumers buying in advance of President Donald Trump’s tariff threats, which are expected to cause prices to soar. The new estimates show that America’s trade deficit with the rest of the world narrowed by 46% to $87.6 billion, acco

Black holes are infamous for being invisible. But thanks to a new technique from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) team, we’re about to start seeing them in color. Astronomers have figured out a way to observe the radio sky in multiple frequencies at once, allowing them to create full-color images of supermassive black holes. The breakthrough is built on a technique called frequency phase transfer, which lets scientists correct for atmospheric interference in real time across multiple radio ban
