Everything we see in the universe, including ourselves, is the result of interactions between these particles. Fundamental forces mean interactions of elementary particles. Four fundamental forces have been identified. They are gravitational force, electromagnetic force, weak nuclear force…
Weighing in at just 64 grams, the satellite is 3.8 cm in size with a cube shape. It is made entirely of 3D-printed polycarbonate polymer.

The Horsehead Nebula is one of the most famous nebulae on the sky. It is visible as the dark indentation to the orange emission nebula at the far right of the featured picture. The horse-head feature is dark because it is really an opaque dust cloud that lies in front of the bright emission nebula….
Work on the project began in 2010. The Infrared Observatory, like the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), aims to gather evidence of primitive light by looking into the maximum distance of the RST universe. However, the main purpose of the Roman Space Telescope was to study dark energy, or dark energy, and distant planets.The glass…
