Secrets of space 2024, November

Sensational data from the Kepler Space Telescope are reassuring to those hungry for contact: NASA's Kepler Space Telescope has discovered 1,235 exoplanets in just 136 days

Contact with representatives of extraterrestrial civilizations has not yet been established, because most of them died at the stage of microbial life. Planetary scientists write about this in their publication in the journal Astrobiology

In order to find out if life exists outside of the Earth, we must deal with our own significance in the universe. Are we something unique or are we nothing special?

Scientists who compiled it believe that the universe develops cyclically Although the theory that our world arose as a result of the Big Bang is rarely disputed by scientists, some of them consider it an open question about what preceded this event

An intelligent alien civilization can exist in the most diverse regions of the universe known to mankind

A new version of the famous Drake equation, which allows us to calculate the number of alien civilizations in the Galaxy, indicates that the probability of the existence and contact of advanced aliens in our space district is vanishingly small, scientists write in a hundred

Astrophysicists from the United States conducted research to find out the number of exoplanets in the Universe on which the emergence and existence of a highly developed civilization is possible

And they found out the age of stars, near which intelligent civilizations can exist. Life of the Earth type, according to scientists, in the Milky Way most likely originates on the outskirts of the galactic disk near stars that are younger than the Sun

There are countless aliens in this universe

Given the size of the universe, there are good reasons to assume the existence of life outside of the earth. And some scientists strongly believe it will be discovered by 2040

There are other worlds besides ours … and this is perfectly shown by the latest astronomical studies

How many times have you gazed at the moon trying to see each crater? Most people think that this is impossible without a powerful telescope or direct travel to the satellite, but technology proves otherwise

Not all the secrets of space are hidden within kiloparsecs from the Earth. There are mysteries that are associated with objects much closer to us, for example, the Moon. For seven years now, the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has been closely watching our space neighbor

Astronomers at the University of Edinburgh, the UK Astronomical Technology Center and the Royal Observatory of Edinburgh have developed a project to transmit messages from Earth to space to the North Star

The National Astronomical Observatory of China is joining the Breakthrough Listen initiative, in which the world's leading scientists plan to search for signals from aliens in space, according to the press office of the Breakthrough Initiatives Foundation

Last week we reported that astronomers at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico received very strange signals from space, coming from a small red dwarf star, and scientists were puzzled by their true nature

When selecting astronauts, candidates, as you know, are tested not only for physical, but also for psychological parameters

Ufologists have stated that an ancient civilization previously existed on Mars. They noticed in the new images transmitted from the Red Planet, the remains of "fortress cities." The images themselves were taken by NASA spacecraft exploring the surface of the Red Planet

Seth Shostak - Chief Astronomer of the American Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), based in Mountain View, California

There is no substance more widespread and incomprehensible than dark matter. Can physics grasp this huge unsolved problem? I sit at my desk at the University of Washington trying to conserve energy

We are always looking for something more. And even our best guesses often don't let us know where we will find it. In the 19th century, we argued about why the sun burns - gravity or combustion, without even suspecting that thermonuclear fusion was involved

Where did the building blocks of Earth's first water come from? At least in part, - from a cloud of gas and dust circling the young sun, new research suggests. Water is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom

How can a square nebula form? Astronomers have not yet undertaken to give a definite answer. However, the stellar system of hot celestial bodies known as MWC 922 is apparently included in just such a nebula

We are not alone in the universe - This is the conviction of the staff of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States (NASA)

The Gaia hypothesis implies that once established, alien life will flourish. Can the planet be alive?

Back in the days when people thought the Earth was flat, it was heresy to assume that a long journey in a straight line would eventually lead you back to your starting point

In HG Wells' War of the Worlds, the Martian invaders were defeated by a fighter whom neither side took into account, - common cold. Could something similar happen to astronauts who land on Mars?

Another mysterious star with anomalies As you know, scientists have found a similar phenomenon (which has not yet been explained) in the constellation Cygnus: something gigantic in size, which in a certain way affects the luminosity of the star

Indian microbiologist Regina Dass and several other researchers analyzed many photographs of the surface of Mars taken by the Curiosity apparatus and came to the unexpected conclusion: there is plant life on Mars

An incredible anomaly was found by a ufologist in a video provided by NASA in early October 2016, in which the Curiosity rover was drilling one of the wells for sampling soil

NASA experts have suggested that the Sun may have a sister star invisible to astronomers, which makes up a binary star system with it

Every day it becomes more and more obvious that sooner or later a new space race will lead to the fact that humanity will leave the same mother Earth. Whether we like it or not, space travel will become an integral part of our future

What will happen to the microbes that make their way onto the ship "like a hare" Understanding the limits of what microbes can survive is important to prevent future pollution of Mars when Earth humans and robots arrive

Astronomers, cosmologists and theoretical physicists call dark matter a hypothetical form of matter that does not emit electromagnetic radiation, nor does it interact directly with it

Astronomers were the first to determine the presence of an atmosphere in an Earth-like exoplanet. The object is called "Gliese 1132b" (GJ 1132b) and is located about 39 light years from us in the constellation Sails

Assembly of the International Space Station (ISS) began in 1998. Since then, it has developed into a giant orbital outpost the size of a football field

It is too early to talk about the potential danger to the Earth of the asteroid Apophis, said Vladimir Surdin, a senior researcher at the P.K.Sternberg State Astronomical Institute. NASA scientists discovered Apophis in 2004

Apophis - the name of the ancient Egyptian demon of horror, so was the name of the giant asteroid killer. The terrestrial sky already reflects this flaming mountain rushing into space

The Universe is an extremely global object, in fact, the largest that can be imagined by a person, because it includes everything: time, cosmic matter and energy

Scientists of the Russian NPO Typhoon proposed to study cosmic dust for the presence of microorganisms harmful to human health, as well as the effect of dust on space technology using orbital "traps", follows from the report that scientists presented
