The search for alien life has so far focused on planets that are similar to Earth. But astronomers may have missed a trick by looking too closely at worlds that are like our own, according to a new report. The study suggests there may be planets that do not necessarily look like ...
A sprinkling of stardust is as magical as it sounds. The dust grains that float through our solar system contain tiny pockets of water, which form when they are zapped by a blast of charged wind from the sun.The chemical reaction causing this to happen had previously been mimicke...
This year promises to be absolutely amazing in terms of scientific and technological achievements!1. Sending humans to MarsElon Musk, a billionaire visionary and owner of SpaceX (yes, this guy actually owns a private space company), promised to establish the first...
This structure is easily found using the free downloadable Google map. I did just that and found it at the coordinates above.Yes, I did report this two years ago, but most my readers may not have seen it.Date of video: January 2014Location of discovery: MarsGoogle Map Coordinates...
A team of physicists has provided some of the clearest evidence yet that our Universe could be just one big projection.In 1997, theoretical physicist Juan Maldacena proposed that an audacious model of the Universe in which gravity arises from infinitesimally thin, vibrating strin...
"The more you study the moon, the more you will become aware that it is an orb of mystery – a great luminous cyclops that swings around the earth as though it were keeping a celestial eye on human affairs." - Frank Edwards, science writer"The moon is the Rosetta Stone of the pl...
Despite six announced visits by U.S. astronauts between 1969 and 1972, the Moon remains a riddle to scientists in many regards. The solutions to these riddles could indicate an alien aspect of our familiar Moon.Called “the Rosetta Stone of the planets” by Dr. Robert Jastrow, ...
By Dr. Tony Phillips, NASA.gov WebsiteAugust 5, 2013Something big is about to happen on the sun. According to measurements from NASA-supported observatories, the sun's vast magnetic field is about to flip."It looks like we're no more than 3 to 4 months away from a complete field ...
Comet ISON, also known as C/2012 S1 was discovered in September 2012 by Russian astronomers Artyom Novichonok and Vitali Nevski using data from the International Scientific Optical Network (ISON).It’s a "sungrazer." A name given to comets that come very close to the Sun. Prelim...
The idea of the universe as a 'giant brain' has been proposed by scientists - and science fiction writers - for decades.But now physicists say there may be some evidence that it's actually true. In a sense.According to a study published in Nature's Scientific Reports, the univers...
Humanity acts like a cancer up on the surface of this planet. Our population rises exponentially. We asset strip and pollute our environment. We do not exhibit a symbiotic or balanced harmony with the Earth. Technologically, we now have the technology to visit other planets...
NASA is slowly being shut down by the government, and I think I know why...I. For those who haven't noticed yet, NASA is slowly shutting downBack in 2011, I was shocked to hear that WISE -- one of NASA's most prolific telescopes -- had been shut down after little more than one ye...
