A Massive Asteroid Will Be Zooming By Earth Tonight—Here’s How To Spot It

NASA scientists have just identified mysterious shapes flying above the Earth but, don’t worry, this doesn’t mean that aliens are about to strike.Using an imaging instrument called the Global-scale Observations of the Limb and Disk (GOLD), the experts uncovered strange X and C shapes, which have been cropping up in surprising places at surprising times.The researchers found the structures dancing around the ionosphere – the area where Earth’s atmosphere meets space – and say that the discovery could help improve radio communications and space weather forecasts.The ionosphere – which sits around 50 to 400 miles (roughly 80 to 644 kilometres)...

NASA scientists discover strange structures hovering above Earth

Wherever massive stars form, black holes inevitably arise, ranging from a few solar masses up to 100 solar masses or even a little bit greater. At the cores of galaxies, supermassive black holes abound, with masses ranging from several hundred thousand to many billions of times the mass of our Sun. However, intermediate mass black holes have long remained elusive. A new discovery claims a black hole of 8200 solar masses at the center of globular cluster Omega Centauri, changing the game forever.

Asteroid 2024 MT1 is headed towards Earth at over 40,000 MPH and will pass by our planet on Monday, on July 8 at a range of just 936,000 miles, meaning that NASA has classified it as being “Potentially Hazardous.” While 936,000 miles may sound like a long distance and nothing to really be concerned about, […]

A newly discovered cloud of magnetized plasma, called the Flying Fox, located in the Hydra galaxy cluster, challenges existing astronomical classifications due to its unique shape and lack of a central host galaxy. High sensitivity radio observations have discovered a cloud of magnetized plasma in the Hydra galaxy cluster. The...

There were a number of celebrities who passed away within the past week, including two notable actresses: Shelley Duvall and Shannen Doherty. Shelley Duvall passed away on Thursday July 11th at her home in Blanco, Texas. The cause of death was complications from diabetes and news of her death was confirmed by her partner Dan Gilroy.

NASA was reporting late Friday that an asteroid the size of an airplane traveling at an incomprehensible speed is headed Earth's direction, though it is unlikely to make contact, scientists said. The asteroid, named 2024 NB2, will get as close as 2,390,000 miles from Earth as it passes through the...

A recent revelation is set to reshape our perception of the Milky Way galaxy. A research team led by Dr. Florian Peißker from the University of Cologne has stumbled upon an unusual phenomenon at the center of our galaxy – another intermediate-mass black hole. Black holes, especially of...

Black holes are remarkable astronomical objects with gravity so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape them. The most gigantic ones, known as “supermassive” black holes, can weigh millions to billions times the mass of the Sun. These giants usually live in the centers of galaxies. Our...

Astronomers have spotted a bizarre exoplanet with the most oblong, hairpin-style orbit ever discovered, and it may be on the path to becoming a “hot Jupiter.”

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have observed five extremely dense proto-globular clusters along a hair-thin arc of glittering stars. The discovery could help them understand how the earliest galaxies formed.

A mountain-sized asteroid nicknamed the “planet killer” will make its closest approach to Earth in over a century on Thursday.The asteroid, officially known as Asteroid (415029) 2011 UL21, will pass by Earth just after 9pm BST (4pm ET) on 27 June, travelling at nearly 26 kilometres per second.Nasa has classified the rock as a “potentially hazardous asteroid”, though it poses no danger to Earth for at least the next thousand years. According to the open-source project Space Reference, the asteroid is “comparable in size to Mount Everest” and will make a much closer approach in 2089.A free live stream of...

New observations reveal neutron stars paired with stars like our Sun. Most stars in our universe come in pairs. While our own Sun is a loner, many stars like our Sun orbit similar stars, while a host of other exotic pairings between stars and cosmic orbs pepper the universe. Black holes, for example, are often found orbiting each other. One pairing that has proved to be quite rare is that between a Sun-like star and a type of dead star called a neutron star.

Sun-like stars found orbiting hidden companions

Asteroids regularly fly by Earth at tremendous rates of speed with little to no consequence. A little over a week ago, a big one flew by at 21,000 mph and was knocked off its orbit by Earth’s gravity, but that’s usually the extent of it and not the norm. Sure, it sounds ominous when a […]

Any night now, a "new star" or nova will appear in the night sky. While it won't set the sky ablaze, it's a special opportunity to see a rare event that's usually difficult to predict in advance. The star in question is T Coronae Borealis (T CrB, pronounced "T Cor...

A study has revealed that galaxies possess a regulatory mechanism similar to a heart and lungs, which controls their growth by limiting gas absorption. This mechanism, involving a supermassive black hole and its jet emissions, prevents galaxies from expanding too rapidly, ensuring their longevity and preventing premature aging into “zombie” galaxies.

An asteroid around the size of the Washington Monument is set to flash by Earth this month. The so-named 2024 MK asteroid will come even closer than the orbit of the moon on June 29 and is estimated to be around 394 to 885 feet in diameter. The asteroid could pass some 50,000 miles closer than the moon, according to NASA's Center for Near Earth Object Studies.

We often run across people in our lives who either have a natural healing and calming energy to them and those who seem bent on ruining everything you set out to do whether they mean to or not. Astrology offers a complex and nuanced understanding of personality traits associated with each zodiac sign, attributing both positive and negative aspects to individuals' characters. Among these characteristics, some signs are often hailed for their healing abilities, bringing comfort, peace, and rejuvenation to those around them. Conversely, other signs may possess more destructive tendencies, challenging relationships and personal growth. This article explores the zodiac signs that are traditionally considered the most healing and the most destructive, offering insights into the dual nature of certain astrological influences.
