This is the first instance that researchers have examined an ultra-low-velocity area thoroughly. Approximately 3,000 km (1,864 mi) under the ground, these mysterious clumps of rock are located. Due to the general way shock waves travel through into the Earth, ...
Researchers believe that a previously unknown ‘mirror world’ of components that only communicates with ours through gravity may hold the key to understanding the Hubble constant issue, a significant conundrum in modern cosmology. The present expansion rate of the cosmos ...
The first recorded eruption of the Kavachi submarine volcano from the Solomon Islands took place almost a century ago, in 1939. Researchers recently took advantage of a period of ‘peace’ that the volcano went through and started to explore the ...
New Starlink broadband satellites were launched by a repurposed SpaceX rocket and came to Earth for a spectacular sea touchdown this Wednesday (May 18). Falcon 9 rocket carrying 53 Starlink satellites blasted out from the Kennedy Space Center’s Pad 39A ...
It is estimated that the moon’s crust was covered in molten rock millions of years ago, when many volcanic activity broke out on the planet’s surface. In the course of time, the lava formed the dark patches on the moon’s ...
The parasite that steals your brainpower is just about wherever you look, Toxoplasma gondii. An estimated 50 percent of individuals may be infected by this tiny parasite, and several studies reveal that it has the potential to affect human behavior in ...
It may be a bit depressing to know that even those huge, shiny, and powerful balls of fire from the sky will face their demise at some point. It’s also the case for our Sun, but there’s no need to ...
It was recently reported that astronauts of the International Space Station’s all-private personnel complained about their travel to low Earth orbit, arguing that they had far too many tasks to complete onboard the lab. They stated that they attempted to ...
According to a recent study, scientists have devised a CRISPR-Cas9 technique to allow for gene editing in insects. “Direct parental” CRISPR is a straightforward and effective procedure that includes injecting substances into female adults whose eggs are growing rather than ...
A new facility in the USA is focusing on the creation of new atoms. For example, the lab will create unstable variants of common elements, including carbon & uranium, to better understand how they got their start in the universe. ...
Beautiful and harmless, the newly found snake has piqued the interest of scientists worldwide. The genus Phalotris includes 15 semi-subterranean species that are found in central South America. There is a distinct pattern of red, black, and yellow on the ...
Astronomers don’t give up hope in looking for signs of alien life on Mars, even though the planet seems like a complete wasteland. But we all know that looks are often deceiving and that even microorganisms such as germs can ...
It has now been reported that there may be a new way to learn more about life on the old Earth. A group of scientists has lately uncovered minuscule traces of bacterial and algal life – preserved in crystals of ...
In a snapshot taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover the other week, the robot captured a strange sight on the martian surface: an apparently oblong and gloomy entrance in the planet’s rocky outcroppings. (Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS) On May 7, the Mastcam just ...
An enormous undersea volcano within the South Pacific Ocean erupted on Jan 15, 2022, devastating Tonga as well as creating a multitude of airwave patterns that could be felt 10,000 kilometers afar in Alaska. It also triggered a unique tsunami-like ...
Jurassic Park’s ferocious velociraptor was influenced by this remarkable carcass of a dinosaur auctioned for $US12.41 m. An unidentified bidder purchased the fossil for more than three times the expected amount of $US4 mill and $US6 mill. So, according to ...
Researchers have cultivated vegetation for the very first occasion using dirt retrieved by Apollo astronauts on the lunar surface. The findings were published in Communications Biology. Scientists sought to examine whether the tough moon soil could be utilized to produce ...
There’s an enormous asteroid on its way to Earth, and NASA is watching it closely. Asteroid 388945 (2008 TZ3) is expected to approach Earth on May 15th, according to NASA. Up to 1,608 feet in width is expected for the ...
Water was previously thought to have been present on Mars for at least three billion years. NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, for example, detected salt crystals that suggest water may have existed as recently as two billion years ago. The Zhurong ...
The Moon that we see in the night sky every night is also the fifth-largest natural satellite in the whole Solar System. There are many other moons out there. Saturn has the most of them: 82 discovered so far. Along ...
Chinese scientists recently reported in the journal Joule that the lunar soil possesses active molecules capable of converting carbon dioxide into oxygen and energy. To help with human explorations of the moon and beyond, they’re now looking into lunar assets. ...
Many of us aren’t fans of the idea of life being evanescent. But we’re here to ruin your dreams. We often forget that someday, we’re all going to die. It doesn’t matter how famous, successful, wealthy, talented, or pretty we ...
On the Moon, there exist molecules of water and ice, but how did these materials get up there? There’s a good chance that part of the water on the moon came from asteroids and comets colliding, but recent research reveals ...
Scientists have discovered eight pairs of mirror-image black hole pairs in the Milky Way utilizing a new instrument they’ve dubbed the “Reverberation Machine.” NASA’s Reverberation Machine used satellite measurements from the ISS NICER instrument, which examines X-ray radiation from objects involving ...
New study reveals that after roughly 13.8 billion years of continuous expansions, the Universe may soon come to a halt and begin to decrease. Researchers in a new publication seek to simulate the dynamics of dark energy, an enigmatic factor ...
