Shortly after the “Mayan Apocalypse” passed without leaving traces, scientists come with good news: asteroid AG5, until recently considered a threat to Earth, it will not hit our planet in 2040, as expected. When they discovered space rock, measuring 140 meters in diameter, scientists have attributed the 0.2% chance in 2040 to face the Earth. [...]
A danger on December 21, U.S. space agency recently warned the public about a real danger of rumors about the supposed “end of world” in December of this year: these rumors do great harm sensitive individuals and especially children and teenagers prone to depression. Fanciful hypotheses regarding the cause of so-called “Apocalypse” of 21 December 2012 [...]
Planet Makemake is about two thirds the size of Pluto, is an icy world that, as the latest astronomical observations, DRB Significant lacks atmosphere, one that completely surround. The distinguishing feature of Pluto, making it more like Eris, the dwarf planet mass of the solar system. Beyond the orbit of Pluto, the solar system, orbiting [...]
Leonids, meteor current active between 10 and 23 November, had maximum activity on 17 November. Meteorites have created a veritable heavenly show this weekend, several photographers from around the world managed to capture single frames. Leonids are visible every year, appearing as “shooting stars” that seem to radiate from the constellation Leo. Meteors become visible [...]
A orphan planet that distant from her star system was found wandering lonely through space. Experts believe that the object CFBDSIR2149 is a cold young planet, for unknown reasons ,it was released by the gravitational pull of the mother star. It’s not the first time when such a planet is discovered, only that this is the closest, just 100 [...]
Scientists believe that the Moon formed from debris left after a cosmic object the size of a planet collided with Earth about ago. 4.5 billion years. For the first time, two new simulations of colossal cosmic collision that led to the formation of Earth’s natural satellite fail to explain why the moon appears to be [...]
A science research say that life on Earth could arise due to microbes that have traveled through space several million years. The theory is based on a series of calculations showing that it is likely that fragments of rock from other planets, solar systems away from, have landed on Earth long time ago. Now, experts believe [...]
Research made some time ago,point that the data collected by REZE-X telescope Chandra showed that our galaxy is surrounded by a halo of gas giant . That has spread over hundreds of thousands of light years and, according to some estimates is comparable to mass of all states in the Milky Way. Now, a new research has used information [...]
From a new research on computerized modeling shows that the number of planets that could host life is far greater than previously thought. Scientists have designed these models to identify planets capable of hosting life that are located in distant solar systems. So far, research was based on the likelihood that these planets to provide water on their [...]
