‘Oumuamua Has Been Reclassified as a Comet
Within the article you will see this said of the object, “releasing just enough gas to subtly change its course”. Or could that be just what the beings on board this object wanted us to think? *one raised eye brow* via Sky&Telescope: Researchers have found that ‘Oumuamua – the first confirmed object to enter the solar system from interstellar space … Continue reading
People Who Anthropomorphize are More Intelligent Than Those Who Don’t
Your habit of talking to your pets, plants or any inanimate object, for that matter, is a sign of intelligence, not stupidity. Pet owners around the globe, if not all then most of them, have daily conversations with their pets, how they’d talk to normal human beings. They wish their pets good morning, ask them if they’re hungry and if … Continue reading
Discovery of New Giant Stars Questions Our Cosmic History
As Neil DeGrasse Tyson is fond of saying, “We are all stardust.” Zooming out a bit, however, reveals that almost everything is stardust, more or less: after the Big Bang, stars were responsible for creating the heavier elements on the periodic table that eventually became the building blocks for planets, carbon-based life, and (in a roundabout way) Elon Musk. Stars … Continue reading
3,000-Year-Old Geoglyphs in Peru Might be Depicting the Heavens
More than 3,000 years ago in what is now the lower Chao Valley in Peru, ancient people created five geoglyphs out of angular rocks, forming designs that may have shown heavenly constellations. These geoglyphs had stone doorways leading into them. Archaeologists believe that ancient people would have entered these doorways to participate in some form of ceremony or ritual activity … Continue reading
Astronomers Puzzled by Incredibly Bright and Fast Mystery Burst Dubbed ‘The Cow’
Something is exploding incredibly quickly in the sky, and astronomers are scrambling to figure out what it is. On 17 June, the twin ATLAS telescopes in Hawaii spotted a bright flash in space that hadn’t been there when they’d checked about two days before. Most supernovae take a few weeks or even longer to reach their full brightness, but this … Continue reading
Asteroid Vesta, with a 13-mile-high Mountain Will Make Close Approach, Be Naked Eye Visible

We May Be the Only Intelligent Life Out There, According to Study

Well, the chances of us coming across extraterrestrials are not looking … Continue reading
This Strange Quantum Theory Predicts That The Future Might Be Influencing The Past
One of the weirder aspects of quantum mechanics could be explained by an equally weird idea – that causation can run backwards in time as well as forwards. What Einstein called “spooky” action at a distance could theoretically be evidence of retrocausality, which is the particle equivalent of you getting a stomach ache today thanks to tomorrow’s bad lunch. A … Continue reading
