Astronomers Found A Dormant Black Hole (BH) In Galaxy SDSS J1148+1930, 5B Ly Away, Weighing 36.3B Solar Masses (SM), Likely The Largest Confirmed Due To Precise Measurement Via Gravitational Lensing & Stellar Kinematics. Likely Formed From BH Mergers, It Nears The 50B BH SM Theoretical Cap. TON 618’s SM Was Revised To ~40B With Uncertainty.

Astronomers Have Observed The Earliest Stage Of A Solar System Forming Around HOPS-315, A Star Like Our Young Sun, 1,300 Ly Away. Using JWST & ALMA, They Saw SIO Gas Solidify Into Silicate, Forming Planet Seeds That Could Collide Into Full Planets. It’s A Cosmic First, Like Seeing A Baby After Only Studying Toddlers In Human Evolution.

Scientists In UK Hit 301 Tbps, The Fastest Fiber-Optic Internet Speed (FFOIS) Using E-Band—1.2M× Home Broadband Speed—By Stabilizing E-Band With Optical Amplifiers & Gain Equalizers. That’s 1,800 4K Movies/Sec On Existing Cables. In 11/23, The World’s FFOIS Ever Recorded, 22.9 Pb/S, Was Achieved By Sending Multiple Bands (S, C, L) At Once.

In A World First, Texas-Based Colossal Biosciences Used Ancient DNA From Dire Wolf (DW) Fossils—Like A 13kyr-Old Tooth & 72kyr-Old Skull—Plus Gene Editing, Cloning, & Surrogate Dogs To Create 3 Hybrid DWs. Though Resembling The Extinct Species, Critics Cite Ethical, Ecological, & Financial Concerns. The Tech May Aid Endangered Species.

For The First Time Ever, Scientists Used A 56-Qubit Quantum Computer To Generate Truly Random Numbers, A Feat Impossible For Regular Computers. Supercomputers Verified The Numbers Against Strict Randomness Standards. This Breakthrough Boosts Online Security And Enables Real-World Quantum Applications In Finance, Manufacturing, And Beyond.

Australian Sprinter Gout Gout, 17, Ran The Year 2025 World’s Fastest 200m Time, 20.05s On 3/16/25, At The Queensland State Championships. In The Final, He Clocked 19.98s (Wind +3.6m/s), Becoming The First AustralianTo Break 20s Unofficially. He’s Only The 7th Under-20 To Achieve This In Any Wind. Usain Bolt Holds The World’s 200m Record At 19.19s (2009).

Researchers, For The First Time, Turned Light Into A State That Is Both Solid And Liquid, Called A “Supersolid.” This Feat Was Achieved Using A Special Semiconductor–Aluminum Gallium Arsenide, Instead Of Ultracold Atoms. This Discovery May Advance Quantum Tech And Deepen Our Understanding Of Matter’s Strange Behaviors In The Quantum Realm.
