A meteorite crashed in the Sahara Desert a little over a year ago. While meteorite impacts on Earth are rather regular, this meteorite is very unique in that it is older than the Earth itself. According to a recent analysis published...
NASA have just announced that Jupiter’s Moon IO has started to send the Juno probe messages. Today, we take a look at Jupiter’s Moon IO and how it’s suddenly started sending messages to the Juno probe. Scientists are making...
Over 200 million Americans saw the August 2017 total solar eclipse, but none had a finer vantage point than photographer Jon Carmichael. He spent years devising a unique method of capturing the entire eclipse, finally merging his interests...
In November 2018, three physicists from the prestigious Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, in Waterloo, Canada, proposed an extraordinary idea: from the Big Bang not only the Universe we know but also another one that is...
In a recent study that was submitted to MNRAS, a collaborative research team made use of the first batch of data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to identify a galaxy candidate, CEERS-93316, that formed roughly 250 million...
NASA’s prototype warp drive spacecraft. (Mark It is an incredible discovery that can take us to other star systems in the still very distant future, but somewhat closer than yesterday. The theory behind that engine — proposed...
New scientific research has just been released that shows a phenomenon known as the solar “grand minimum.” Also, defined as the “prolonged sunspot minimum,” it’s a time when the Sun’s magnetic force will weaken, sunspots...
The XENON dark matter observatory’s researchers have discovered something extremely rare. Unfortunately, it is not dark matter, although it comes close. The observatory’s detectors detected the disintegration of xenon-124,...
Astronomers monitoring the sky recently received a major surprise. They discovered a massive galaxy around our own in an area previously unexplored. It popped up, apparently, out of nowhere. So how could the galaxy, dubbed as Crater...
Nothing is standing or stationary. As you are reading this, the Earth spins around its own axis; it revolves around the sun, the sun is moving through space at a stunning 792,000 km/h around the gigantic center, and our universe is...
Consider this the next time you pick up a “fresh” glass of water: some of the molecules in that water are billions of years old – much older than the solar system itself. This seems impossible at first: how could...
NASA verified that the biggest comet ever detected has a diameter of around 85 miles and is now officially the largest comet ever spotted after Hubble Space Telescope studies. C/2014 UN271 (Bernardinelli-Bernstein (BB) was discovered...
NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope discovered an Earth-like planet circling a nearby star within the Goldilocks zone of our galaxy. Kepler-186f is around 500 light-years from Earth in the Cygnus constellation. The habitable zone, also...

Time is actually relative, and flexible and, according to Albert Einstein himself, “the dividing line between past, present, and future is an illusion”. In the video below you can learn more about what exactly Einstein...
There is an asteroid drifting about in space named 16 Psyche that is believed to be worth $700 quintillion; if NASA were to capture it and split it equally among the people, each person would get almost $93 billion. While that is...
When it comes to space, there is an issue with our human desire to see and experience everything. A significant issue. The issue, after all, is space. It is much too big. Even at the highest speed permitted by the Universe, it would...
The concept of the fourth dimension is quite a hard subject to wrap your head around. We only observe our world in three directional dimensions, but theoretical physicists consider that extra dimensions could occur beyond our perceptive...
Could there be life on Saturn’s moon Enceladus? This icy world may be small (1/7 the size of our moon), but it has a global ocean of water beneath its outer ice crust. In fact, NASA’s Cassini spacecraft analyzed some of that water...
The European Space Agency has revealed an astounding photograph captured by its Solar Orbiter, a sophisticated spacecraft built to examine the Sun from a much closer distance than Earth – and it’s quite spectacular. You...
Just imagine that future humans may be able to Travel to distant planets and discover… more humans. According to one astrobiologist at the University of Cambridge, that possibility may be more realistic than you think. In a...
