The discovery could help reveal how wandering black holes are created by mergers, kicks, and galactic interactions. ALMA expands high-frequency SETI search - A new study used archival ALMA data to search for technosignatures at millimeter wavelengths, an unusual region for SETI. No alien signals were found, but the work opens a largely unexplored part of the radio spectrum. New exoplanet methods gain momentum - Late July brought a notable exoplanet update with Gaia23braL b, the first microlensing planet confirmed in TESS data. The story highlights how transit, microlensing, astrometry, and infrared imaging are increasingly working together. Roman telescope nears August launch - NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is approaching its planned August 30 launch. Roman promises major advances in dark energy research, exoplanet microlensing, and wide-field infrared surveys. Launches, astronauts, and skywatching ahead - The space operations beat stayed busy with the NROL-95 Falcon 9 launch, upcoming ISS activity, and NASA outreach on meteor showers and a total solar eclipse. These stories show how exploration, infrastructure, and public skywatching now move in parallel.
