Some experts have claimed that the Stonehenge was constructed with the help of Pythagoras theorm which was not invented by that time.
With NASA engineers yet to make contact with the Opportunity Mars rover due to a massive storm on the Red Planet, scientists are pinning their hopes on learning more about Martian dust storms from images captured by the Curiosity probe.
In a key step to defend Earth from potentially devastating risks of near-Earth objects (NEOs) -- asteroids and comets -- whose orbits come within 30 million miles of Earth, NASA has released a federal planning document.
The instrument will be called ECOSTRESS, or ECOsystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment and it will measure the temperature of plants from space.
New results from a simulation continue to paint a strange picture of our noxious neighbor. It seems that an interaction between the planet’s mountains and its atmosphere could create waves strong enough to change the length of a Venusian day by up to two minutes.
Scientists have been able to prove the existence of small black holes and those that are super-massive, but the existence of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) was never proven.
The scientists tracked the event with radio and infrared telescopes, in a pair of colliding galaxies 150 million light-years from Earth.
Star gazers could have a good view of the Red Planet next month as Mars is set to come to the closest point to Earth since 2003 when it reaches opposition with the Sun in late July.
The storm was first detected on May 30 and grew worse in recent days.
In a study released Wednesday, June 13, 2018, an international team of ice experts said the melting of Antarctica is accelerating at an alarming rate, with about 3 trillion tons of ice disappearing since 1992.
The host star itself is about 600 light years away from the Earth. The discovery was made by measuring the mass of the planet using the indigenously designed “PRL Advance Radial-velocity Abu-sky Search”
NASA has not yet provided clues on what the new results are about, but it said that during the event, NASA scientists will have chats with the the public and media on the findings, public can send questions on social media.
It is being estimated that the gravitational waves detected last year may have led to the lowest mass black hole ever found, says the scientist who analysed data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory.
Neutron stars are ultra-dense cores of massive stars that collapse and undergo a supernova explosion.
The latest discovery is a result of a five year project called the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS).
Gwynne Shotwell further noted that the Boring Company could actually be how we house people on Mars, adding Tesla’s expertise in battery technology had already found a home inside SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft.
One of the remote cameras melted in a fire sparked by a SpaceX Falcon 9 launch on Tuesday but it still managed to snap photos of the liftoff, Space.com reported.
Scientists have discovered the first known permanent immigrant to the solar system – an asteroid, currently nestling in Jupiter’s orbit, that migrated from another star system.
The rocket blasted off from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Air Force Base, the state of California, at 12:47 pm PDT (1947 GMT).
