In what may be one of the most enjoyable TV moments we can recall, a bunch of conspiracy theorists unintentionally spent thousands of dollars to show that, yes, the Earth is round. A scene from Behind the Curve, a new Netflix documentary...
There are tens, hundreds, or even 1000 times more bright galaxies at the edge of space-time (soon after the big bang) than astronomers had predicted, according to the James Webb Space Telescope, which has only been observing the sky...
There’s a once-in-a-lifetime encounter happening right now for everyone who is captivated by things in the sky – and you won’t want to miss it. It’s not a star or a meteor; it’s something far more unusual: Jupiter. Here’s...
Along with progress in space exploration, a lot of time and money has been put into developing technologies that could make it easier to use space resources. And finding the best way to make oxygen on the Moon has been the main goal...
The stυdy experts said that this ecceпtric circle also υпderliпes the fact that two black holes coпsυme other black holes at the ceпter of a galaxy. Image: Uпsplash Iп a historic first, a team of astroпomers has coпfirmed...

Αlbert Eiпsteiп is freqυeпtly regarded as oпe of the most iпflυeпtial scieпtists of all times, with brilliaпt iпsights aboυt the laws of пatυre. However, his work has oпe very disappoiпtiпg coпseqυeпce, especially...
Scientists have concluded that water, Earth-like planets are very common around Red Dwarf stars, some of the most populous suns in the galaxy. The universe we inhabit is a truly massive place, and we are only beginning to explore it....
Composite image of the total solar eclipse on August 21, 2017. A hybrid solar eclipse is a combination of a total, partial and annular solar eclipse but it’s impossible to experience both an annual and total solar eclipse during...
This is Valles Marieris, and it is one of the Solar System’s largest cayos. It’s deeper than the Grand Cayo, and its length encircles the United States from coast to coast. Valles Marineris is a system of canyons that runs...
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...

The unusual nova may give information on how star explosions populate the solar system and the universe as a whole. Matter stolen from a partner star flows into an accretion disc around a white dwarf in an intermediate polar system,...
Scientists find proof of previous universes in the night sky, namely the leftovers of black holes from a previous universe. According to New Scientist, the concept is based on something known as conformal cyclic cosmology (CCC)....
Wheп sυch objects reach the eveпt horizoп, they are accelerated to iпcredible velocities. Some physicists пow sυggest υsiпg the gravitatioпal pυll of black holes to create powerfυl particle accelerators. The trick, accordiпg...
minus 56 days till impact… but not quite. NASA says its automated tracking systems at the Center for Near-Earth Object Studies in the U.S. state of California has detected an asteroid so big that it could wipe out the entire human...
Over 200 million Americans watched the total solar eclipse in August 2017, but no one had a better view than photographer Jon Carmichael. He spent years plotting how he could capture the total eclipse in a unique way, eventually combining...
For at least two decades, we have known that the Universe is not a static, immutable entity but quite the opposite. It expands vertiginously in all directions. As a result, space emerges from itself and distances some galaxies from...
Astronomers have discovered a new exoplanet that is slightly larger than Earth and orbits a red dwarf star 66.5 light-years away. It’s a good prospect, scientists think, to help cover our massive information vacuum regarding our...
Astronomers watching the sky recently got a big surprise. They discovered a big galaxy in an undiscovered region of our galaxy. It appeared seemingly out of nowhere.So, how did the galaxy, called Crater 2, achieve this feat, much like...
By laying a curved graphene sheet over another curved sheet, a new pattern is created that changes the way electricity moves through the sheets. Using a new model, similar physics may emerge if two adjacent universes are capable of...
