For the past several decades, the scientific community has been deeply invested in figuring out where the asteroid came from that caused the massive extinction of the dinosaurs about 66 million years ago. This significant event transformed Earth’s biodiversity and ignited a plethora of theories and discussions among researchers.

Massive asteroid killed the dinosaurs, and we finally know where it came from

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

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.

A MYSTERIOUS interstellar signal once thought to be a sign from aliens has left scientists with more questions than answers. The space laser has stumped researchers for nearly five decades since its discovery. Astronomer Jerry Ehman was so shocked when he found the anomaly in August 1977 that he scrawled the word “Wow!” on the […]

Astronomers have confirmed the existence of exoplanets with extremely small orbits around their stars. But what about exoplanets that get close enough to be devoured by their star, and what if it's an Earth-sized exoplanet?. This is what a recent study posted to the arXiv preprint server and accepted to...

Good thing we found this Earth-sized planet now—it's about to be destroyed

When an asteroid hit the Gulf of Mexico 66 million years ago, Earth changed forever. The impact caused a mass extinction event, killing around 60 per cent of the planet’s species – including all of the non-avian dinosaurs. Now, new evidence suggests that the asteroid behind the destruction...

NASA has revealed that its Perseverance rover may have found evidence of past life on Mars in the Jezero crater beside an ancient, dried-up river. A rock, collected on July 21 and nicknamed “Cheyava Falls” by NASA, displays traits that may answer the question of whether Mars was home to microscopic life in the past. […]

SCIENTISTS have discovered a unique trait on the metal-rich asteroid Psyche by using the James Webb Space Telescope. Researchers identified a water component on the mysterious – and priceless – asteroid 16 Psyche, suggesting that hydration exists in the form of rust. In 2017, researchers discovered traces of water on Psyche’s surface. “Spectra from the […]

The Voyager I spacecraft was in the news once again in June as NASA was able to restore transmissions from all four of its temporarily disabled instruments. Launched way back in 1977, the unmanned craft is now the most distant man-made object in the universe: 15.5 billion miles from Earth, and constantly increasing that distance […]

A trio of citizen scientists have made a discovery that will see them published in the prestigious journal Astrophysical Journal Letters. That's pretty impressive, but the nature of the discovery is also remarkable by itself. While working on NASA’s Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 project, Martin Kabatnik, Thomas P. Bickle, and Dan Caselden spotted a faint object moving unbelievably fast. Follow-up observations confirmed this weird object as an astronomical first—a tiny star (or a huge planet) rocketing out of our galaxy.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

 There appear to be huge reservoirs under Mars, scientists have said.Evidence suggests that there are vast lakes of liquid water under the surface of the red planet, according to a new study.There could be enough water in the underground reservoirs to create oceans on the surface of Mars, the researchers suggest.Using data from Nasa’s Insight lander, the scientists estimated that the amount of groundwater could cover all of Mars to a depth of between one and two kilometres, or about a mile.But the experts say the reservoir is unlikely to be of much use to anyone trying to tap into it...
