Legendary television reporter, George Knapp, known for his investigative journalism on UFO secrets, has given NewsNation unprecedented access to his files. These files, which he has been compiling for decades, contain evidence from government documents suggesting a cover-up of information about UFOs. Knapp’s interest in UFOs began in 1987 when famed aviator and influential player […]
If the Perseverance rover found evidence of life on Mars, would we recognize it?
NASA’s Perseverance rover has discovered circular rock structures on Mars that resemble those formed by microbial communities in some Earth lakes. However, this finding highlights the challenge in determining what might constitute evidence for life on Mars. While some scientists were initially excited by the structures, they soon recognized inconsistencies with a biological origin. The […]
Interactive map reveals locations of UK’s 900 UFO sightings in last two years – Daily Mail
Nick Pope, the former head of the UK Ministry of Defence’s UFO project, has criticized the government for not taking the potential threat of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) seriously. He argues that the government’s decision to stop investigating UFO sightings is illogical, especially considering the US government’s recent increased interest in such phenomena. Pope suggests […]
NASA’s interstellar Voyager probes get software updates beamed from 12 billion miles away
NASA’s Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, launched about 46 years ago, are still receiving software updates to keep them functioning and in contact with Earth. Recently, Voyager 1 began transmitting corrupted data, so a software fix was created to address this issue. Another set of updates is aimed at preventing the build-up of residue in […]
NASA scientists push for a treaty to tackle risky ‘space junk’
NASA scientists and other experts are calling for a legally binding treaty to manage “space junk” and protect Earth’s orbit. The space around our planet is increasingly crowded, with over 9,000 satellites in orbit today and projections that this number could rise to 75,000 by 2030. Disused satellites and their fragments pose a threat to […]
Astronomers capture radio signal from ancient galaxy at record-breaking distance
Astronomers have detected a radio signal from the most distant galaxy yet, using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope in India. The signal was detected at a wavelength known as the “21-centimeter line” or the “hydrogen line,” which is emitted by neutral hydrogen atoms. This detection could mean astronomers are ready to begin investigating the formation […]
‘Missing link’ protostar may prove solar system’s water is older than the sun
Astronomers have discovered a disk of planet-forming material around a distant star, V883 Orionis, which contains hundreds of times more water than all of Earth’s oceans. The discovery could provide insights into how water travels from star-forming gas and dust clouds to planets, and may also suggest that Earth’s water is older than the sun. […]
The World’s First 3D-Printed Rocket Is About to Launch
Relativity Space, a California-based startup, is ready to launch its almost entirely 3D-printed rocket, Terran 1, from Cape Canaveral, Florida. This launch marks a significant step towards the broader use of 3D printing in the space industry. The company hopes to eventually use the technology to build tools, spacecraft, and infrastructure in orbit, on the […]
The Researcher Who Would Teach Machines to Be Fair
The speaker began studying fairness in machine learning after teaching a course on the topic and giving a talk about the moral questions that underlie the technical definitions of fairness. They argue that there is no single statistical criterion that can capture all the desired attributes of fairness. They also discuss the misuse of the […]
US congressman claims government is reverse-engineering alien tech
Tennessee Congressman Tim Burchett has made claims about the US government reverse-engineering alien technology. During an interview with Newsweek, he stated his belief that the government had recovered an extraterrestrial craft and potentially alien beings. Burchett suggested that the government is currently trying to understand and replicate the technology, but faces difficulties due to its […]
