Welcome to another episode of Kalam Astro — your go-to show for the latest in space exploration and astronomy!
We open today's episode with one of the universe's greatest unsolved puzzles — how do supermassive black holes actually grow? Thanks to the power of Artificial Intelligence, scientists have now identified 7 extraordinary quasars — cosmic giants so massive and powerful that they warp the very fabric of spacetime around them. These remarkable discoveries could hold the key to finally unravelling the mystery behind the growth of the universe's most colossal objects.
Then, we travel back in time to one of Earth's most catastrophic moments — the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs. Groundbreaking new research reveals that the impact didn't only plunge the planet into darkness — it may have triggered firestorms burning at temperatures 17 times hotter than the thermal limit lethal to humans. A chilling reminder of the sheer, unimaginable violence of that fateful day millions of years ago.
Next, some incredibly proud news from right here in our region — researchers in the UAE have made meaningful contributions to unlocking new insights into galaxy evolution. Scientists from NYU Abu Dhabi are helping the global astronomical community better understand how galaxies form and transform over billions of years — a shining example of the UAE's growing role on the world stage of space science.
And finally, we wrap up with something special for stargazers across the country — the legendary Perseids meteor shower is here! We share everything you need to know about how and when to watch this spectacular celestial display from the UAE, along with expert photography tips to help you capture those dazzling streaks of light across the night sky.
