Nuclear war on Mars? It can not be! However, Dr. John Brandenburg argues that this is exactly how it was, that a nuclear war on Mars is - it's true
Scientists have recorded for the first time traces of the existence of radioactive molecules in space, observing one of the most unusual stars in the Milky Way, resulting from the collision of two other luminaries
The New Horizons spacecraft, which flew past Pluto in 2015, successfully rendezvous with Ultima Thule, a Kuiper belt object on January 1, 2019
Recently, information appeared on the Internet that literally blew up the Internet. NASA researcher Silvano Colombano published a document titled "New Assumptions to Guide SETI Research"
The first ever interstellar asteroid, discovered by astronomers in October, can be chased by a swarm of hundreds of small probes with solar sails, which will be accelerated by powerful lasers on Earth, according to a group of scientists involved in the project
Russian scientists proposed to place a constellation of small satellites in the Earth's orbit to study and develop technologies for intercepting potentially dangerous asteroids; it is planned to launch the spacecraft on the Dnepr rocket (conversion version of the strategic
The Milky Way is one of the greatest mysteries of our universe. And among them we have highlighted the main thing. 1. Temperature of the Sun This phenomenon cannot be explained exactly, there are only hypotheses
Recommended reading for a start: Reopening the UniverseStudying the starry sky, we find that all large-scale star maps are cut into pieces and glued together in random order. Someone, from a single star atlas, made puzzles. What for?- Salik
An amateur ufologist found traces of aliens on the moon. Mark Savalha, who is an amateur ufologist, claims that he was able to see an artificially created object on the surface of the moon
Google Earth is a very useful tool for exploring our planet. A lot of people dig into it and look at satellite photos. But Google Earth shows not only the Earth, but also the Moon and Mars.Selecting a planet in the Google Earth program.- Salik
It seems that modern physics has reached its existential crisis. By observing how light from distant objects is bent, the researchers concluded that the methods for measuring the expansion rate of the Universe are not consistent with real data
Astronomers at Australia's Parkes Observatory have captured three more mysterious fast radio pulses, the nature of which is still unclear. In this case, one of the received signals turned out to have a record power in terms of signal-to-noise ratio
American scientists from the University of Michigan discovered a new dwarf planet in the solar system
Scientists from Spain and the UK have accused Planet X of gradually destroying the solar system
The not yet discovered "ninth planet", presumably located in the distant regions of the solar system, is acquiring its physical appearance
Having opened the way to space, we, of course, did not stop there and began to look for signs of living organisms in it, proving that we are not alone in this Universe. Unfortunately, so far no progress in this direction
Astronomers from the University of Arizona admitted the existence of a tenth planet in the solar system, comparable in size and mass to Mars. The study is aimed at publication in The Astronomical Journal, reported by New Scientist
An international team of scientists has confirmed the existence of giant Rossby waves in the interior of the Sun, which are caused by the rotation of a star around its axis
Satellites like Kepler worked overtime to discover hundreds of new planets in our galaxy. But how did we first discover the planets in our local volume of space? That is, in our bubble called the Solar System
Russian and European geologists discovered on the territory of Greenland in the vicinity of the city of Maniitsok the oldest crater on Earth with a diameter of 100 kilometers, which arose three billion years ago as a result of the fall of a 30 kilometer asteroid, according to
Here on Earth, people take time for granted. But in fact, after all, everything is based on an extremely complex system
Observations of an unusual family of stars, which are home to one pulsar and two white dwarfs, helped scientists to prove that gravity slows down the flow of time and bends space exactly as predicted by Einstein's theory of relativity
Earlier this year, California Institute of Technology scientists Michael Brown and Konstantin Batygin provided compelling evidence that there is another planet in the solar system
“All our observations find complete symmetry between matter and antimatter, so our universe shouldn't have existed,” says Christian Smorra of the BASE collaboration at the CERN research center
Reanalyzing the data collected by the Kepler telescope after its "resurrection" helped NASA scientists discover nearly a hundred new exoplanets, some of which are similar in size to Earth, according to an article published in the Astronomical Journal
British astrophysicist Kevin Pimblet tried to mentally reproduce a scenario unpleasant for our planet, in which the Earth begins to fall into such an extreme object of the Universe as a black hole
Dark energy - one of the phenomena of the Universe, the existence of which became known twenty years ago. However, scientists to this day do not know much about its nature
NASA researchers flying the Curiosity rover took samples of Martian air and found large amounts of methane in them.Traces of methane were found in samples from Mars before, but then they were very small. This time, its concentration turned out to be very large, at least three times more than in the samples from 2013
Scientists from China made an important discovery - they managed to find two new stars, which shocked them with their incredibly high speed. Chinese astronomer Yang Huang announced the discovery to the world
The VLA radio telescope accidentally discovered in the Cygnus A galaxy, the first radio galaxy in the history of astronomy, a second supermassive black hole that had been hidden from scientists for more than 20 years, according to an article accepted for publication in Ast
MIT PhD student Katie Bauman and her team have developed an algorithm that will finally help us see what a black hole actually looks like
Last year, researchers first "heard" black holes by detecting gravitational waves from two such objects colliding. Now they want to see with their own eyes a black hole, or at least its silhouette
Black holes - perhaps the most mysterious objects in the universe. They are so dense that gravity prevents anything, not even light, from leaving the black hole
The researchers claim that the iron deposits are very similar to the earth's remains, which contained fossils
Over the past few decades, humanity has begun to explore Mars much more actively
Human interest in Mars has grown dramatically over the past few decades
New research suggests that ancient Mars likely had enough chemical energy for microbes to thrive underground
People can master Mars in 20 years thanks to the technologies of the founder of the SpaceX company Elon Musk. This was stated by British astronaut Tim Peak, writes The Independent
During one of the recent studies on the Red Planet, an underground reservoir was found - a good sign in terms of the likelihood of life there
