The meteorite found in the Sahara last year was estimated to be about 4.56 billion years old. The age of the Earth is 4.54 billion years. The asteroid named EC002 or Erg Chech 002 is amazing. The study of the rare meteorite was published in the journal PNAS. It is thought to be part of…
On January 26, 2022, at 09:14 GMT, Mars and the young cluster NGC 6530 will make a close approach, passing about 30.2 arcminutes of each other. In comparison, the average apparent size of a Full Moon is about 31 arcminutes. Both objects will shine within naked eye visibility: Mars — at a magnitude of 1.4…
Why did NASA put so much faith in the European agency’s rocket to carry James Webb? So with the precision of the launch method, James got more fuel for ten years. That means James Web will be around for over 20 years. The other is reliability.i.e83 consecutive wins from 2003 to 2017. In the language…
Thirty years ago, on January 22, 1992, was discovered PSR B1257+12 B, also nicknamed Poltergeist. It became the first-ever found planet outside the Solar System. Here are some facts about Poltergeist: placed in the constellation Virgolocated 2,300 light-years away;over four times as massive as the Earth; has an orbital period of about 66 days;orbits the…
2022 AE1, an asteroid the size of the Tungaska event 2022 AE1 with a diameter of about 70 m, was discovered on January 6, 2022, and currently has the highest risk of impact to Earth on all objects near Earth. A few days after its discovery, it was rated 2022 AE1 Torino Scale 1. The…
It shows the remains of a star that exploded thousands of years ago! The entire nebula is about 110 light-years across, showing only a small fraction of it.
Like Earth, most of the planets we know have the same shape. But researchers now say the answer is no, whether all planets, including those outside the Solar System, are spherical. Some planets are also in the shape of potatoes, according to a new study. Researchers have discovered a potato – shaped planet called Wasp-103b…
Virgin Galactic: $ 250,000 for a 2 hour suborbital flight at 80 km altitude;Blue Origin: Approximately $ 300,000 for a 12-minute suborbital flight at 100 km altitude;Axiom Space: $ 55 million for a 10-day orbital flight;Space View: $ 125,000 for a 6-hour flight to the edge of space (32 km above Earth).
The universe is made up of stars, galaxies, nebulae, and galaxies at smaller scales. Below is the most distant image of the universe taken over the years by the Muse1 instrument in the European southern obse in Chile, almost as if the nerve cells in the brain were intertwined. Covering an area of about 15…
Many people have heard of a movie called Interstellar. The interstellar space begins where the Sun’s magnetic field ends. This region is beyond the solar system. To be more precise, the interstellar region begins where the true boundaries of our solar system end. A group of scientists have devised a plan to send creatures to…
