Do the ever-moving ants sleep? Science that exists. Studies show that the ant colony workers and the queen sleep in short series. Working ants repeat an average of 253 sleeps a day, lasting about 1.1 minutes. The essence is that you sleep a total of 4.8 hours a day. The queen’s sleep is repeated 92…
In the mid-twentieth century, aerospace engineering made great strides in aircraft technology. That is, the aircraft was redesigned, including increased safety so that it could carry more passengers and go faster. Until the 1950s, aircraft windows were square. When commercial aviation began, airlines began flying at higher altitudes to save aviation fuel. (Normal passenger planes…
The most popular image in space history in the United States is from the challenger (STS-41-B) mission launched from the Kennedy Space Center on February 3, 1984. Astronaut Bruce McCandless II is engaged in the first untethered spacewalk, very high above the Earth. What frightens a man the most is the emptiness of space and…
NASA’s Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) will land at the western end of the ‘Noble crater’ at the Moon’s South Pole by the end of 2023. The availability of ground water will be confirmed. The Viper will be launched on a SpaceX Falcon-heavy rocket.The Moon’s South Pole is one of the coldest regions in…
The speed of light is in fact an assumption. The truth is that we have never measured the speed of light in one direction experimentally. The speed of light in a vacuum is said to be 299,792 kilometers per second. What we can do now, even with the most advanced technology we have, is to…
Fun fact: President Eisenhower signed the National Aeronautics and Space Act into law on July 29, 1958. On October 1, 1958, NASA formally opened for business.
The spacecraft is a module developed by the Russian space agency Roscosmos. It will serve as Russia’s major research center on the International Space Station. The spacecraft was launched in collaboration with NASA (United States), Roscosmos (Russia), Jaxa (Japan), ESA (Europe) and CSA (Canada). The ‘Nauka’, launched by Russia from the Bikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan…
In 1961, Wally was the youngest member of NASA’s astronaut crew. She was 21 years old at the time. Valley was a member of the space travel program ‘Mercury 13’. But in the end, NASA decided not to send the group of women into space. Wally Funk, who lost his chance to be born a…
Photons pass through the material because they do not have the energy needed to excite a glass of electrons to a higher energy level. Physicists sometimes talk about this based on the band theory that energy levels coexist in areas known as energy bands. There are areas between these bands called band gaps, where the…
The maximum speed at which we can communicate information in this universe is the speed of light, which is 3 million km / second. That is, nothing moves faster than this. For example, suppose the sun suddenly disappears in a second, and it takes about 8 minutes and 20 seconds for the earth to see…
