A Planet Doomed to Destroy Its Star: The Story of HIP 67522 b
Scientists have recently discovered a planet that appears to have a “death wish,” orbiting extremely close to its star at an astonishing speed. This alien world, named HIP 67522 b, is roughly the size of Jupiter and completes a full orbit in just seven days. Its rapid orbit is causing significant disturbances in the magnetic field of its host star, triggering massive explosive eruptions. These powerful blasts push back against the planet and even cause its surface to wrinkle. This remarkable interaction between a planet and its star is unprecedented, as detailed in a study published on July 2, 2025, in the journal Nature. Devamını Oku
Voyager Technologies Raises $382.8 Million in U.S. IPO Amid Rising Military Spending
Voyager Technologies, a space and defense technology firm, announced on Tuesday that it raised $382.8 million in its initial public offering (IPO) in the United States. The company and some investors sold approximately 12.35 million shares at $31 each, exceeding the initially marketed range of $26 to $29 per share.
The Denver-based company specializes in mission-critical space and defense technology solutions. Its IPO marks a positive sign for the U.S. market, which has recently recovered from volatility caused by tariff-related disruptions.
Voyager’s public debut aligns with the Trump administration’s efforts to significantly boost defense and space budgets. Last month, President Trump selected a design for the $175 billion Golden Dome project, a next-generation missile defense shield for the U.S.
The stock will begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “VOYG” starting Wednesday. Morgan Stanley and J.P. Morgan served as lead underwriters for the offering.
