Looking for life on other planets and far away stars is an ambitious project, but it starts with smaller goals of exploring closer celestial bodies. With technological and scientific advancements, these more achievable tasks can be undertaken by organizations that are not necessarily as big as NASA. Many academic institutions entered this arena and their […]
What to make of the intelligence community’s unclassified report on UFOs – Yahoo News
For people interested in unidentified flying object and other phenomena in the skies, this summer brought one of the biggest developments in decades. US government revealed the report in which it documented many sightings experienced by the service members and pilots. Only one of these have a full explanation, and more than 80 of these […]
Planet 9 may be closer and easier to find than thought—if it exists
Our planetary system still has some mysteries unanswered, but in general, there aren’t many of them left. One of the most puzzling questions is the existence of a cold planet, large in sizes, beyond the orbit of Neptune. The belief in its existence stem from the behavior of objects whose orbits are close together. They […]
AI discovers new craters on Mars in just five seconds
Sometimes, the work that scientists at NASA do resembles the game where you need to find the elements that differ in the two seemingly identical photos. Such is the work of those analyzing photos of Mars and looking for craters. It turns out that artificial intelligence can greatly speed up this process. In fact, it […]
New research solves the mystery of magnetic moon rocks brought back on Apollo
Our planet has a high intensity magnetic encompassing field. This is the result of iron in liquid form that is swirling around deep inside the core. It is, therefore, surprising to know that Moon does not have a field of this magnetic strength. The question that scientists are trying to answer is whether it had […]
The Unstoppable Inspiration of Dr. Ning Li (RIP)
Dr. Ning Li was a bold woman with a scientific mind who wasn’t afraid to think outside of the box. She was already well-known in the academic community for her work on anti-gravity, but her work has been spotlighted by the general public now with the 2017 US Navy’s disclosure of UAFs – Unidentified Aerial […]
Growing Miniature Human Tissue on the International Space Station
We have grown many things on the International Space Station, but now we are recently growing human tissues. Due to gravity it is hard to produce a good replica of human tissue and that is why it is being grown on the ISS. There are many advancements that could take place with this tissue one […]
Fastest orbiting asteroid found in our solar system
We have now found the faster orbiting asteroid in our solar system. Currently it takes around 113 days for a full rotation around the sun. This small asteroid is only .6 miles in size. It gets so close to the sun that its temperatures reach 900 degrees F. Due to this it is thought that […]
Cosmic boomerang offers a lifeline to dying galaxies
A study now just confirmed an old theory that we have never seen. We observed gas from another galaxy being pulled out, only to be brought back in. We call it a cosmic boomerang. The ALMA radio telescope was used to confirm these theories. One major effect noticed was that this has the possibility of […]
Titan-in-a-glass experiments hint at mineral makeup of Saturn moon
One of the reasons why we are researching Titan is because of the ice and water wells found from out satellites. We are now experimenting with the ice molecules on Earth by recreating some of the conditions found on Titan. Crystals formed using this new method of study are being analyzed with various diffraction and […]
