We have been enjoying the spellbounding view of the sky for thousands of years. About challenges in exceeding the speed of light and for reaching to distant star, scientists have spent generations trying to develop new travel-technologies. However, there are some very real challenges for us to do so as,...
Bill Gray, the astronomer who had previously claimed that a piece of one of Elon Musk’s Falcon 9 booster rockets was going to slam into the moon in March has admitted now that he has made a mistake, saying that the space junk belongs to a Chinese rocket. Astronomer Gray,...
Time can be a tricky thing, and when you’re striving to make time work for you, it’s easy to lose yourself in the details. For example, how does this thing called “time” fit into our lives, exactly? We’ve all felt lost at one point or another with regard to the...
Today we’re going to talk about it. We’re going to talk about the profound questions, the alarming answers, and even things that might take your mind in directions you never expected. It’s a little like opening Pandora’s Box, so strap yourself in and read on. In the real world, time...
One of the most awaited moment in the history of space telescopes, the James Webb Space Telescope is going to complete the first phase of the months-long process of aligning the observatory’s primary mirror using the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) instrument. According to NASA, the challenges to meet for the...
The Hubble Space Telescope, which has already contributed the human civilization with unprecedented approach to the outer space, has captured yet another cosmic view of an incredible three-dimensional-looking image of two interacting galaxies on the verge of a cosmic draw. The image has been released by the European Space Agency...
A potentially hazardous asteroid has headed towards the Earth. According to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) that tracks objects in the outer sky, it has spotted an asteroid, named 138971 (2001 CB21), nearly 1.3 kilometers in size, heading towards Earth. The asteroid is said to be potentially hazardous, and the...
Researchers have found a strange spinning object in the Milky Way Galaxy. The Australian researchers say that the object is unlike anything astronomers have ever seen before. The team’s paper on the object has been published in the latest edition of the journal Nature. The object, which releases a huge...
Till the date, time travel is nothing more than just a hypothetical concept. According to Albert Einstein, time may be the fourth dimension. However, the problem with it is that one can not go backward in time like in the other the remaining three dimensions. Although the logic behind the...
Researchers have claimed that they have found the second candidate of exomoon, which orbits a planet circling a sun-like star about 5.7k light-years from the earth. In Nature Astronomy on 13 January, they have reported about the finding of the exomoon. The team of astronomers has said that the satellite...
Yes, Asteroid impact is a real threat. Not tested to date whether an asteroid can be destroyed using powerful missiles or not, however, there are luckily several methods available to protect Earth from a possible asteroid collision. Asteroids are mainly made of rock. The rock has a much higher resistance...
Researchers are busy in exploring about the dark matter and the dark energy. In such astronomers have recently reached one step closer to revealing the properties of dark matter enveloping our Milky Way galaxy. They have viewed a new map of twelve streams of stars orbiting within our galactic halo....
We all live on the earth. Whenever we think about staying in the air, hot air balloons and airplanes are the first things to consider. But, actually, there are other ways to stay in air. Yes, we mean staying still. If you hold your breath and jump into water, you...
As one of the most awaited events, the team of NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope fully deployed its 21-foot, gold-coated primary mirror and successfully completed the final stage of all major spacecraft deployments to prepare for science operations. As reported by NASA, the Webb mission will explore every phase of...
Ever since the invention of mirrors, people have been fascinated by their own reflections. We know that as fun as it seems, looking at our reflection is not pleasing to the eye but we still do it anyway. So what about people who can’t see themselves in a mirror? One...
