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

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
Deadly Monster Asteroids That Could Wipe Us Out
There are many free roaming asteroids in space that have a potential to collide with our planet, some as massive 900 km across (that was not a typo, nine hundred km across!). It is very disturbing to say the least, but equally disturbing is that it is possible to easily miss an approaching asteroid, even a very large one, so … Continue reading
NASA Announces Kepler Telescope Discovery of Earth-Size Exoplanet in Habitable Zone
Scientists taking a second look at old observations from the Kepler Space Telescope discovered a planet in a distant solar system the same size as Earth at a distance from its host star suggesting the planet could support water, NASA said in a press release on Wednesday. “Out of all the exoplanets found by Kepler, this distant world – located … Continue reading
Collision With an Ice Planet May Have Given Uranus its Tilt and its Moons
Our solar system has some very odd planets and odd placements of planets. For example gas giants like Jupiter have been found to be more often be closer to the parent star where as Jupiter does not fit that trait. Then we have the unusual tilt of Uranus for which we continue to find the answer to. via IFL Science: … Continue reading
Little Chance Massive Asteroid Heading Our Way Will Annihilate Humanity
“It has an estimated 4.1 kilometres in diameter—much larger than the most common asteroids—which generally do not exceed 100-200 metres in diameter. NASA diagrams appear to show the asteroid crossing the Earth’s orbit.” Given our present world wide situation of the ongoing coronavirus (Covid19) pandemic, one might be forgiven for letting their imagination run away with them, especially with unsubstantiated … Continue reading
