We’ve all been used by now to see extraordinary images photographed from space with advanced telescopes. Stars, galaxies, quasars, supernovae, nebulae, neutron stars, and more. But as for now, in 2021, very few such images can still leave us speechless. ...
The clock created by Jun Ye from the University of Colorado would need around 15 billion years to miss only one second—about the age of the world itself. For this innovation, together with Hidetoshi Katori from Japan, the Chinese-American researcher will receive 3 million as co-winners ...
Do you know how essential gravity is in the Universe? It acts as a peculiar ‘glue,’ that ties everything together strangely yet fascinating. We can also use gravity to spot distant cosmic features, an effect dubbed gravitational lensing predicted by ...
Ever wondered how sunlight is on other planets? Well, you may never know when you could actually come across some proof! Venus is well-known for its inhospitality. It’s a nightmarish planet, rough at edges, and apparently, the most reflective planet ...
The Universe has a long history, the longest of all. It started roughly 13.7 billion years ago along with the Big Bang, a phenomenon that appeared with no apparent cause, had energy from apparently nowhere and started to expand without ...
It seems that we might be one step closer to finding out more about the real shape of the Universe. Japanese astronomers have come up with new artificial intelligence (AI) technique in order to remove noise from the astronomical data. ...
The world always needs more powerful tools to look deeper into the wonders of the Cosmos. Until only one hundred years ago, astronomers were sure that the Universe is infinite in space and time, and there’s no wonder why. All ...
A galaxy is unfathomably huge, as it usually contains hundreds of billions of stars. But since the Universe is much bigger, so big that nobody knows for sure where its boundaries are, there’s no telling if it could be a ...
We just love some good, intriguing Universe simulations, right? Well, how about simulating the grand Universe 1000 times faster? A team of bold scientists from the Flatiron Institute have come up with a method to simulate the Universe 1000 times ...
The United Arab Emirates now makes history with its first – and successful – interplanetary mission! The UAE’s probe, dubbed Hope, in Arabic “Al-Amal,” entered Mars’ orbit on Monday (February 8). The spacecraft is developed to unveil the secrets of ...
