Astronomers Discover Black Hole that ‘May be Spinning Space Itself’
Astronomers using India’s astronomy satellite have found a black hole which is spinning so fast it could be spinning space itself. While the idea is surreal, it’s based on Albert Einstein’s Theory of Relativity – and understanding the ‘spin’ of the black hole could be key to grasping how galaxies formed. Astronomers found that the black hole the binary star … Continue reading
Author of ‘Oumuamua Alien Craft’ Explains His Theory
The astronomer also said that the rock being a visitor from another star system makes it a very fascinating case to scientists, noting that it’s unfortunate that mankind simply does not have the technology to chase it down. Avi Loeb, an astronomer at Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics who earlier suggested that space rock Oumuamua might be an alien craft, … Continue reading
Strange Dust Cloud Discovered Orbiting Earth
For decades the existence of weird space clouds in Earth’s orbit has been speculative and controversial, but new research looks to validate their strange reality after all. The Kordylewski clouds – two mysterious swarms of dust trapped between the competing gravitational fields of Earth and the Moon – were first hypothesised back in the 1950s, although evidence for their existence was faint.For … Continue reading
Researchers Consider Laser ‘Beacon’ to Attract Aliens
In our unending struggle to find out if we are alone in the universe we continually seek to find ways to make it easier to be seen just in case there is someone out there looking back. via unexplained-mysteries: A new MIT study has proposed a way to not only attract alien astronomers, but also to communicate with them. In … Continue reading
‘Skull Asteroid’ Returns But Not Before a Visit by a Trio of Space Rocks
Space rocks a plenty! via Sputniknews: The US space administration NASA has announced that three asteroids will be skipping past Earth this weekend, the closest of which will come inside the moon’s orbit. In their wake is the perennial “skull” asteroid, last seen in our vicinity on Halloween three years ago. NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory said the first and largest … Continue reading
Ingenious Crows Make Hooked Tools
The manufacture and use of tools has long been touted as a line of demarcation between humans and non-human animals: our technological prowess is what makes us human, it was thought. But research over the last few decades has blurred that line, as tool manufacture and use, and even the use of tools to make other tools (known as meta-tool … Continue reading
Walls Will Not Stop AI from Being Able to Track You
Think you can hide from AI behind closed doors.. nowhere to run, nowhere to hide! via unexplained-mysteries: Scientists have used radio signals as well as an artificial intelligence to track individuals through solid walls. The remarkable new system is able to produce a skeleton-like visualisation of someone moving around behind a wall by using radio waves to build up a … Continue reading
Harvard Study Suggests Panspermia Can Transfer Life Between Planets In Our Galaxy
Researchers from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics recently released a study claiming that panspermia, an astronomical theory that life is exchanged between planets within solar systems, can be expanded to support exchanging life within the Milky Way galaxy. The study, “Galactic Panspermia,” concluded that life, or the chemical compounds necessary for life, can be distributed between solar systems or even … Continue reading
Russia Planning Permanent Moon Base – Russian Space Agency Head
This would be great news for space and science exploration etc. except we know this will likely have ulterior (political) motives behind it. via RT: Russia’s plans for moon exploration are to be updated within two weeks, but Moscow still wants to have a permanent base on its surface, the head of Russian space agency Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin said. Rogozin, … Continue reading
Mysterious ‘Oumuamua Was Alien ‘Reconnaissance Mission’, Harvard Researcher
‘Oumuamua, the mysterious interstellar object that has caused much head scratching in scientific circles, now has a new possible origin: part of a reconnaissance mission initiated by an alien civilization wanting to check out other galaxies. The latest theory on ‘Oumuamua comes from a study published on Thursday by Shmuel Bialy and Abraham Loeb, a pair of astronomers with the … Continue reading
