How Astronomers Discovered Space Factories to Produce Gold and Nuclear Fuel What are gravitational waves?

This is exactly what virtual archaeologists think, who constantly find something in photographs sent to Earth by the tireless Martian toiler - the Curiosity rover. Their next "archaeological" find was the petrified body of a humanoid

Electron fluxes in the Earth's radiation belts arise as a result of the interactions of cosmic rays with atoms in the upper layers of the planet's atmosphere, "knocking out" neutrons from them, according to an article published in the journal Nature

Clusters of galaxies are the largest spaces in the universe, containing hundreds or even thousands of galaxies. In the dense and inhospitable environment of these clusters, galaxies actively interact, and this can end or slow down the formation of stars

Since the historic landing of NASA's Curiosity rover in the Martian Gale Crater in August 2012, his work and study of Martian soil have repeatedly forced scientists to seriously think about the fact that at some point in history on this

The passengers of the Mayflower, which arrived on the shores of the New World in 1620, were the first settlers to establish a permanent colony in North America

“We have known for a long time that the Universe is expanding. But about 15 years ago, my colleagues and I found that it was expanding faster and faster

A supernova is one of the most destructive events in the universe.Almost all the mass from the outer shells of the star is ejected into interstellar space, and from the remaining matter, depending on the mass of the star, a neutron star or a black hole is usually formed

Physicists have long been racking their brains over combined parity violation in the decay of some particles

The planet or traces of the presence of life on it, according to astronomers, can be hidden from the most advanced telescopes by blinding them with lasers with a power of several tens or hundreds of megawatts

Sending a manned mission to Mars requires not only a powerful launch vehicle, but also an understanding of how a three-year spaceflight could affect the human body

Lunar craters hidden from direct sunlight, located in the coldest polar regions of our natural satellite, contain reserves of water ice

Our celestial companion now does not have a global magnetic field. There are separate magnetized areas, according to the "weather" they do not. But it seems that this was not always the case. Lunar "curls" (swirls) - mysterious structures on the visible surface of the moon

Ural ufologist reported strange finds in photographs from Mars

Looking into the deepest space with telescopes such as Hubble, we see billions and billions of galaxies of various shapes and sizes

Ufologists and virtual archaeologists are tireless in their quest to find something unusual in new or old NASA photographs that would prove the presence of aliens or some other extraterrestrial life

The Red Planet continues to amaze us with its riddles

The terms dark energy and dark matter are not entirely successful and represent a literal, but not semantic translation from English

As reported by express.co

On October 12, 2017, the asteroid 2012 TC4 will approach the Earth at a dangerous distance, about which we have already talked in detail

Astronomers at the University of Leicester have recorded for the first time the fall of matter into a supermassive black hole at a speed equal to 30 percent of the speed of light

The core and inner layers of the Sun rotate about four times faster than its surface, which contradicts all conventional ideas about its structure, according to an article published in the magazine Astronomy & Astrophysics

No sooner had the noise around the discovered wrecked alien ship in one of the photographs sent from Mars subsided, as virtual archaeologists found new evidence of the presence of life or aliens there in the next photographs from the Red Planet

But the emergence of life is possible not only on Mars, which is located in the "life belt" around the Sun. Recent explorations of Europa (Jupiter's moon discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610) have yielded amazing photographs

Scientists and ordinary people have been asking about the possibility of the existence of extraterrestrial life for more than a dozen years. Literally in everything, from Spielberg's artwork to his “E

It is possible to break beds on Mars, in which the protagonist of the film "The Martian" succeeded, in reality

Fragments of lunar rocks from the American Apollo series spacecraft helped geologists to prove that the Moon possessed the same powerful magnetic shield as the Earth in the early eras of its existence, according to an article published in the journal Ear

Martin Rees once said: “It is becoming clear that in a sense, space provides the only laboratory that successfully creates extreme conditions to test new ideas from particle physics

About 30 human-made spacecraft in our solar system are currently collecting information about our planet and its surroundings

Summing up the results of the year, the editorial staff of Nature - one of the most respected scientific journals in the world - drew attention to the increased popularity of research, statements and just fantasies about the colonization of Mars this year

The researchers obtained the first detailed images of the old star U Antliae. Also, the equipment of the ALMA telescope complex allowed astronomers to understand the structure of the "cocoon", consisting of discarded outer layers and the surrounding star

A mystery lurks in the far reaches of our solar system. For a long time, astronomers believed that eight planets revolve in near-perfect circular orbits, because they once formed in a swirling disk of dust and gas surrounding the young sun

Chinese astronomers said they first caught an electromagnetic wave launched over a thousand years ago

Scientists Ermano F. Borra and Eric Trottier from Laval University in Quebec (Canada) have announced that they may have come into contact with aliens

70,000 years ago, a pair of brown dwarfs known as the Scholz star, just about to ignite hydrogen fusion in their cores, passed through the Solar System's Oort cloud

An international team of scientists has discovered that Jupiter is the oldest planet in the solar system. This was reported in a press release posted on Phys.org

The contribution of ordinary citizens to science is usually rarely appreciated. However, the discovery of an exoplanet by an amateur astronomer completely changed the opinion about the contribution to science that ordinary citizens make

Scientists from the University of Calgary in Canada have found that supersonic "rivers" of plasma, heated to 10 thousand degrees Celsius, flow in the upper layers of the Earth's atmosphere. They are generated by large electric fields that are generated in the ionosphere

New information has appeared in foreign media regarding the existence of life on Mars

More recently, our solar system appeared before astronomers in a single, so to speak, instance. Now the number of planets outside the sun reaches almost two hundred! This hardly means that as many "solar" planetary systems have been discovered
