Where else could astronomers look for alien life in the Solar System when Mars doesn’t show any signs of harboring it? The other planets are either too hot, too cold, or with a gaseous composition. That means that the moons ...
It’s not a secret to anyone that the Solar System has plenty of giant asteroids that could impact our planet one day. Luckily, most of the space rocks that enter our planet’s atmosphere are small enough to be obliterated due ...
Who can possibly miss the chance of seeing some of our Solar System’s planets in the sky in the dawn? We can all consider ourselves lucky if we get that chance, even if we see the space objects with the ...
After the discovery of 17 solar explosions originating from a single sunspot, two of which are going directly toward Earth, the bright northern lights may be seen as far south as the northern United States. We are being attacked by ...
We all like to think that the Sun is our best friend, and we’re not here to contradict the idea. Our star provides heat, energy, and oxygen to all of us. Life wouldn’t be possible without the Sun. But we’re ...
The researchers made an interesting discovery when re-examining thin sections of Bushveld chromitites: chromite is often found as individual grains that seem to be suspended inside matrix minerals, which they thought was strange. Because of this result, the researchers are ...
It is estimated that there was almost no oxygen in the atmosphere throughout the first 2 billion years of Earth’s existence. Although certain bacteria were photosynthesizing during the later part of this time, the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere ...
We may learn about some distant extraterrestrial rocky planets with breathing atmospheres similar to Earth in a very short period of time. Those observations will be made possible by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which is now in the ...
Unfortunately for all of us, the Universe is not a friendly place as we like to believe or as we’ve been told. Meteors fly through the Earth’s atmosphere all the time, and there’s no wonder why a really big one ...
Quaise, a revolutionary energy firm founded in 2020, has gained a lot of attention for its bold objective of digging deeper into the crust of our planet than anyone has ever gone before. After the completion of the first phase ...
