Astronomers Discover A Space Structure Of Unknown Origin Larger Than The Milky Way Galaxy
A team of astronomers has discovered new details of one of the strangest cosmic structures in the universe. So strange that they are literally referred to as “Odd Radio Circles” (ORC). These colossal phenomena may have diameters of a million light years — nearly ten times larger than our galaxy — and are still unexplained. […]

Scientists Discover Giant Reservoir Of ‘Hidden Water’ Just Three Feet Below Mars’ Grand Canyon
If we send a crewed spaceship to Mars right now and it lands in a large canyon and starts exploring, they’ll find a massive deposit of water. The ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) mission discovered “large volumes of water” in the red planet’s Valles Marineris canyon system. The European Space Agency and the Russian space […]

Astronomers Discover A Disappearing Space Object That Turns On And Off Every 20 Minutes And Sends Highly-Polarized Radio Signals
According to a research paper published in Nature, astronomers detected a “really weird” object 4,000 lightyears distant from Earth. Every other minute, the object vanishes from view and produces a massive burst of radio waves three times an hour. Tyrone O’Doherty, a Curtin University student, first noticed the enigmatic object while scanning the sky in […]

NASA Releases First ‘Fully Focused’ Image Of A Single STAR Capture By James Webb Space Telescope
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured its first ‘in focus’ shot of a single star, and it is so good that the observatory may be able to exceed its research goals. When the telescope begins science operations in the coming months, this will enable considerably more precise views of stars, planets, and galaxies. Webb […]

The ‘Big Flip’ Is Upon Us: Earth’s Magnetic Field is Dramatically Shifting Over Africa
We are facing an anomaly over South Atlantic, researchers are calling it South Atlantic Anomaly. It is a region of the Earth’s magnetic field that has shifted so much that satellites get disrupted when they fly through it. The researchers provided information acquired from southern Africa in a research paper, which was published in February, […]

NASA’s $1 Billion Spacecraft Beams Back The Sharpest Images Of Jupiter—EVER
Juno flew by Jupiter skimming 2,700 miles (4,400 kilometers) above Jupiter’s cloud tops while traveling about 129,000 mph (208,000 km/h) relative to the planet, NASA officials said. Hold my coffee, I can’t stop staring at the images. Is that even real? NASA’s Juno spacecraft is the first solar-powered space probe sent out to study our […]

This is Huge: Scientists Successfully ‘Warp’ Time In The Lab, Based On Einstein’s Theory
Recently, scientists were able to “warp” time on the smallest scale ever. Time may be warped in the presence of high gravitational fields/high speeds, according to Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity. This is referred to as time dilation. Clocks also tick differently based on gravity in various situations. With the aid of the most […]

For The First Time, NASA Witnesses Black Hole Giving Birth To Stars
Black holes are often considered to be enormous, aggressive, and very destructive entities. However, according to recent research, they are just as capable of producing stars as they are of consuming them. Astronomers have reached this conclusion after observing a black hole 30 million light-years distant produce stars in the dwarf starburst galaxy known as […]

Journey Through Time: Planet Earth 4,499,999,000 Years Ago
Collisions in the huge disc-shaped cloud of material that also generated the Sun are believed to have formed the Earth some 4.6 billion years ago. Gravity gradually clumped this gas and dust into clumps that produced asteroids and tiny early planets known as planetesimals. These particles collided repeatedly and grew in size, eventually forming the […]

Teenager Wins $400,000 For His Brilliant Video Explaining Einstein’s Theory Of Relativity
Ryan Chester from North Royalton in Ohio submitted his video for the Breakthrough Junior Challenge (BTJC), which offers students aged thirteen to eighteen (13-18) to share their curiosity and interest in math and science with the entire world. The competition got over 2,000 proposals from 86 different parts of the world. After being pointed down […]
