Astronauts that hibernate on long spaceflights is not just for sci-fi. We could test it in 10 years.

The first hibernation studies with human subjects could be feasible within a decade, a European Space Agency (ESA) researcher thinks. Such experiments would pave the way for a science-fiction-like approach to long-duration space missions that would see crew members placed into protective slumber for weeks or months on their way to distant destinations. In science-fiction movies, astronauts

BREAKING🚨: Scientists create the 5th form of matter for 6 minutes

In a ground-breaking experiment, scientists have successfully created the fifth form of matter, known as the Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), for a remarkable duration of six minutes. This major accomplishment has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of quantum mechanics and open the door to new technological advancements. In this article, we will explore the sign

A Supernova Explosion Will Be Visible In The Sky In 2037

The supernova explosion will appear at least two more times in the next 20 years. Astronomers have discovered the third appearance of a gravitationally lensed supernova explosion dubbed Supernova Requiem. The images of the phenomenon appear alternately in a distant galaxy. Astronomers have predicted the next two times that the remnant will be visible in the sky. The fourt

BREAKING🚨: Something Just Crashed Into The Moon And Astronomers Captured It

Using cameras set to monitor the moon, Daichi Fujii, curator of the Hiratsuka City Museum, recorded an event that occurred on February 23 at 20:14:30.8 Japan Standard Time (7:14 a.m. EST, or 1114 GMT). The event appears to be a meteorite impact, and it was located near Ideler L crater, slightly northwest of Pitiscus crater. Meteors travel on average at around 30,000 mph (48,280 kph), or 8.3

We’re About To Witness A Super-Rare Planetary Alignment In March’s Early Morning Sky

Depending on the time of year, we may view various amazing sights out in space when we gaze up into the night sky. Unfortunately, the sky has seemed relatively empty during the last month. But, as it turns out, all you have to do is know WHEN to look. The planets visible to the naked eye are now on the opposite side of the planet (the sun-facing side.) Every evening of the month, you might g

NASA has discovered an ‘ocean world’ where one year lasts just 11 days

NASA has discovered a water planet 100 million light years away from Earth that completes an orbit of its star every 11 days. A group of astronomers at the Université de Montréal came across the ocean planet through NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite or TESS, according to a study published in The Astronomical Journal. CNET reports that the planet covered by a blanket of water,

Ultra-rare ‘rainbow clouds’ light up the Arctic Circle like auroras in stunning new photos

Rare clouds that give off bright, multi-colored light like an aurora were recently spotted at multiple locations in the Arctic. But what causes them?

Scientists Actually Did It: They Built a Real Working Tractor Beam

Naeblys//Getty Images Scientists built a working tractor beam—the first example of one that pulls objects visible to the naked eye. The tests were in highly controlled laboratory experiments. A tractor beam like this one could manipulate vehicles and aircraft on Mars. Tractor beams have long been a staple of sci-fi, but you might not know that they’ve also exist

Scientists watched a star explode in real time for the first time ever

Astronomers have seen a huge star explode in a fiery supernova for the first time ever. The event was even more spectacular than the scientists had expected. A new study published on January 6 in the Astrophysical Journal says that scientists started watching SN 2020tlf, a red supergiant about 120 million light-years away from Earth, more than 100 days before its last, catastrophic collapse

For the first time: Hubble finds water on Jupiter’s moon Ganymede

We have solid evidence of water vapour in the atmosphere of Jupiter's moon Ganymede – the solar system's biggest moon — for the first time. The frozen water on Ganymede's surface may have sublimated, moving from solid to gas without becoming liquid. The surface of Ganymede is a mix of dark, cratered regions and bright grooved terrain that produces fascinating patterns. R
