Martian Meteorites Found to Contain Organic Compounds Essential for Life
Martian meteorite samples have found organic compounds essential for life: nitrogen-bearing organics in a 4-billion-year-old Martian meteorite. A research team including research scientist Atsuko Kobayashi from the Earth-Life Science Institute (ELSI) at Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan and research scientist Mizuho Koike from the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science at Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, have found nitrogen-bearing organic material … Continue reading
The Brain Can Also be Affected by Acute Covid-19 Illness, According to New Study
Conditions that severely damage the respiratory system, such as Covid-19, can also cause inflammation to the part of the brain that controls breathing, US researchers have revealed. The new research, published in The Journal of Physiology, studied rats to show that treatment to areas of the brain that control respiration could play a key role in helping patients recover from … Continue reading
Black Hole Discovered Just 1,000 Light Years Away from Earth, ‘VISIBLE’ to the Naked Eye
Astronomers at the European Southern Observatory have identified the closest black hole to our solar system yet discovered and, as it turns out, it’s been hiding in plain sight and is actually visible to the naked eye (kind of). The black hole in question is 1,000 light-years from Earth in the Telescopium constellation and forms part of a triple system, … Continue reading
Astronomers Detect Mystery Radio Burst in Our Own Galaxy
For the first time, astronomers have picked up a fast radio burst within the confines of the Milky Way. Fast radio bursts, which last mere milliseconds yet generate as much energy as the Sun does in an entire day, have remained something of an enigma since their discovery back in 2007. Previous examples of these enigmatic phenomena have all been … Continue reading
‘Super Earths’ May Harbor Life After All, According to New Study

Comet SWAN (C/2020 F8) Rapidly Brightening, Now Visible With Naked Eye
Comet SWAN (C/2020 F8) is brightening rapidly. “I just came in from observing it with the naked eye,” reports John Drummond of Gisborne, New Zealand. “It seems to have increased in brightness dramatically since I last saw it a few nights ago.” Indeed, multiple observers have now pegged the comet at magnitude +5.5, just within the range of naked-eye visibility. … Continue reading
Spacefarers of the Future May Evolve Larger Skulls
This made me wonder about the ‘grey aliens’ (and all others for that matter), their proportions are clearly ‘head heavy’ (possessing a large head)… could it be they possess this trait for the same reason we would evolve it if we lived in space? via unexplained-mysteries: Scientists have identified one of the more unexpected ways in which the body changes … Continue reading
Comets Headed in the Our Direction Could Potentially Become Visible Late 2020
In this video MrMBB333 talks about a family of comets (Machholz, Atlas) headed our way which might become visible unaided, towards the end of 2020. Also discussed is the position of our sun being off where it should be for this time of year and the comments left by viewers seem to support this, I personally have seen a noticeable … Continue reading
Pentagon Vax Study Shows Flu Shot Increases Risk of Coronavirus by 36%
On March 12th, 2020, Anderson Cooper and Dr. Sanjay Gupta held a global town hall on “Corona Facts and Fears.” During the discussion, Anderson said to the viewing audience, “And, again, if you are concerned about coronavirus, and you haven’t gotten a flu shot…you should get a flu shot.” Setting safety and efficacy of influenza vaccination aside, is Anderson’s claim … Continue reading
