The dynamo effect that generates Earth’s magnetic pull could also occur in Weyl metals
Mysterious object might be ‘a fully operational probe sent intentionally to Earth vicinity by an alien civilization’
Earth’s water may have originated from both asteroidal material and gas left over from the formation of the Sun, according to new research.
The space telescope orbiting Earth has been studying red dwarf flares
Observations by ALMA and data from the MUSE spectrograph on ESO’s VLT have revealed a colossal fountain of molecular gas powered by a black hole in the brightest galaxy of the Abell 2597 cluster — the full galactic cycle of inflow and outflow powering this vast cosmic fountain has never before been observed in one system.
It sounds like a tabloid headline, but in this case it could be real.
In this July 6, 2018 file photo, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe sits in a clean room at Astrotech Space Operations in Titusville, Fla., after the installation of its heat shield. Parker has made its first close approach to the sun, just 2 1/2 months after liftoff. The spacecraft flew within 15 million miles (24 million kilometers) of the sun’s surface Monday night, Nov. 5. Its speed topped 213,000 miles (342,000 kilometers) an hour relative to the sun, as it penetrated the outer solar atmosphere, or corona. No spacecraft has ever gotten so close to our star.
Scientist have made another step towards scaling the energy system that can store solar power for long periods.
NASA’s Dawn spacecraft has gone silent, ending a historic mission that studied time capsules from the solar system’s earliest chapter.
