In these modern times, we often take the stability of our world for granted. However, an academic revelation suggests we are in the midst of a change so drastic that it feels as if the very ground beneath our feet is shifting. Well, at least the ground 3,220 miles beneath our feet, in Earth’s inner core.

In an exciting breakthrough for astronomy and the search for extraterrestrial life, a team of international scientists has announced the discovery of Gliese 12 b, a temperate, Earth-sized exoplanet just 40 light-years away — a relatively neighbourly 378 trillion kilometres from earth. Researchers from across the world, including key...

We will rock you.

On Tuesday, three “airplane” sized asteroids will be shooting by the planet, according to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. 

The first is an 84-foot one that will be 1,130,000 miles away, followed by a 110-foot space rock at a distance of 2,130,000 miles, and then a 140-foot asteroid at 2,440,000 miles.

And, that’s not all: On Saturday, a “building-sized” asteroid of 600 feet will soar by at 3,470,000 miles away.

However, these current events are just rolling out the red carpet for a projectile that’s had the space administration sweating for some time.

Editor's note: This article was originally published on February 4, 2022. It has since been updated. A clip that resurfaced on Reddit has brought renewed attention to the 2018 documentary "Behind the Curve," which focuses on "the growing, worldwide community of theorists who defend the belief that the Earth is flat while living in a society who vehemently rejects it." Shared to the r/facepalm community, the video clip shows a scene from the very end of the documentary where a Flat-Earther named Jeran Campanella performs an experiment to prove that the Earth is actually a flat plane and not a spheroid. Unfortunately for him, the experiment inevitably proves that the Earth is, in fact, not flat.

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 Giant Asteroid Going Over 40,000 MPH Is Headed Towards Earth

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...

Has it ever crossed your mind that the moon you gaze at today is not in the same spot it was millions, thousands, or even hundreds of years ago? The idea might seem far-fetched, but science tells us that our moon is slowly, but surely, drifting away. Billions of years...

Our moon is drifting away, and Earth will never be the same without it

Indy100

The Moon is a constant in the night sky, but all is not actually as it seems. It turns out that scientists have discovered the Moon is drifting away from Earth, and it’s changing everything we thought we knew about our planet’s relationship with its only natural satellite. It’s also having a very real impact on the length of days on our planet – albeit at an incredibly slow rate. By moving away from Earth over the course of millions of years, the Moon is simultaneously making the length of the average day longer.A study by a team at the...

An international team of astronomers employing NASA’s Webb Space Telescope captured an exoplanet 12 light years away, and in a location that may be familiar to fans of science fiction. The alien planet orbits the K-type star Epsilon Indi A, which is around the same age as Earth’s Sun, but is slightly cooler.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

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 […]
