• A Planet with Two Suns… and Endless Sandstorms!

    Meet VHS 1256 b — a mysterious, fiery world located just 70 light-years away, orbiting a pair of stars.
    Thanks to the James Webb Space Telescope, we now know this isn’t your typical exoplanet—it sits right on the edge between a giant planet and a brown dwarf.

    Temperatures? Around 830°C (1,526°F).
    Weather? Non-stop silicate sandstorms raging across its skies.

    JWST's powerful instruments detected a mix of methane, carbon monoxide, water, and even signs of carbon dioxide—the most molecules ever detected at once in a single alien atmosphere!

    Its skies are chaotic:

    Heavy silicate grains sink back down.

    Lighter particles ride up.
    This vertical dance creates wild brightness swings over its 22-hour day—like watching an alien sunset on fast-forward.

    And because VHS 1256 b orbits far from its two stars, its light can be studied in isolation, giving astronomers an unfiltered view of its dynamic, dusty atmosphere.

    But the biggest mystery?
    Did it form like a planet—or like a star?
    We still don’t know.

  • India is going electric—in space.
    ISRO has just completed a 1,000-hour test of its 300mN Stationary Plasma Thruster, running at full power with xenon gas. The result? A propulsion system that's 6× more efficient than traditional chemical rockets.

    This marks a major leap toward lighter, longer-lasting, and smarter satellites—all leading up to ISRO’s TDS-01 electric mission. With plasma power, India’s next-gen space missions just got a serious upgrade.

    The future of flight isn’t fire… it’s plasma.

    Here’s what this means for global space tech:

  • Bananas Foster

    Flambéed Bananas Foster with Caramel Rum Sauce and Vanilla Ice Cream

    Ingredients:

    2 ripe bananas, sliced lengthwise

    1/4 cup unsalted butter

    1/2 cup brown sugar

    1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

    1/4 cup dark rum

    1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

    1/4 cup banana liqueur (optional)

    Vanilla ice cream, for serving

    Directions:

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon, cooking until sugar dissolves and the mixture becomes syrupy—about 2-3 minutes.

    Carefully add banana liqueur (if using) and stir. Add the sliced bananas to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top.

    Cook for 1–2 minutes until the bananas are slightly softened but not mushy.

    Remove the skillet from direct heat. Slowly add rum to the pan. Using a long lighter, carefully ignite the rum to flambé. Allow the flame to burn off (about 30 seconds), swirling the pan gently.

    Once the flame subsides, stir in vanilla extract and remove from heat.

    Serve bananas and sauce immediately over scoops of vanilla ice cream.
