Discover what exist in the universe
Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, was enveloped in dense clouds by the European Space Agency’s Huygens probe on January 14, 2005. It successfully landed on the mysterious surface more than two hours later, capturing image after image for seventy-two minutes before losing contact with its mother spacecraft, Cassini, which was orbiting […]
It was April 19, 1971. Salyut-1, the world’s first space station, was just launched into low Earth orbit by the Soviet Union. Two months later, on June 6, 1971, the Soyuz 11 [Soy-ooz] traveled to the orbiting space station with cosmonauts Georgi Dobrovolski, Vladislav Volkov, and Viktor Patsayev [Pat-sigh-yev] on […]
In June 2022, scientists from Australia found a quasar that shines light that is much brighter than usual. The breathtaking view was produced by the supermassive black hole J1144, which has a mass greater than three billion suns. It is depicted in the image as a bright blue dot. This […]
Kevin Costner’s Water World did poorly at the box office, grossing just $80 million on a budget of $172 million. The film went on to become a cult classic, and even though it depicted an Earth completely submerged in water, there are a handful of exoplanets with this same characteristic […]
In July of 1994, scientists from around the globe observed in awe as the comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 collided with Jupiter. The force of the impact’s explosion was equivalent to three hundred million atomic bombs. Jupiter’s six days were consumed by 21 separate impacts from the comet’s fragments, which produced giant […]
The James Webb Space Telescope is the most powerful space telescope, including Hubble. It was so large that it had to be folded like origami in order to fit on the rocket that carried it into space. Because it is so precise and sensitive, it must be kept at temperatures […]
According to scientific research, we may not have discovered the majority of the universe’s secrets yet. According to studies and research, we have only explored about 4% of the universe, and the remaining 96% is a vast unknown filled with new particles, dark energy, and dark matter, as well as […]
How long would your lifespan be on these planets? One day, we will have to leave the Earth. As the sun grows larger, we will be forced to flee the solar system. This is what we know to be true, and this is what will occur in a few billion […]
Why does humanity need a telescope the size of the solar system? What space phenomena do we urgently need to examine more closely, and why does humanity need a solar system-sized telescope? Using the Japanese Subaru telescope, scientists were able to observe the most distant object ever seen from Planet, […]
In 2004, astronomers found a deadly asteroid lying in space, whose impact might bring as much harm to Earth as the Chicxulub impactor did 66 million years ago, when it wiped out the entire population of non-avian dinosaurs. Initially dubbed 2004 MN4, this 340-meter-wide rock 170 million kilometers from Earth […]
