Was Galileo actually right? 🔭🌍 His name is forever tied to astronomy, and to one of history’s biggest debates between science and religion. But what did Galileo really believe? And what kind of evidence did he have when he argued that Earth moves around the Sun? ☀️⚖️ In this thought-provoking episode of Kainaati Gup Shup, astrophysicist Salman Hameed explores the real story behind Galileo’s idea...

🌟 Did you know that stars can actually crash into each other? In rare but awe-inspiring events, stars in close binary systems orbit so tightly that they eventually spiral inward and collide, releasing massive energy — sometimes forming supernovae, neutron stars, or even black holes! 💥🌀 In this special episode of Kainaati Chai, astrophysicist Zain Mobeen — a PhD candidate at the Nicolaus Coperni...

For decades, astronomers have dreamed of finding planets around Alpha Centauri — our nearest star system, just 4 light years away. 🌟 And now, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) may have spotted one! 🚀 But here’s the twist: ⚠️ The planet is still tentative — scientists need more data to confirm it. 💧 If real, it lies in the habitable zone — the perfect distance for liquid water and maybe even...
