NASA says that astronauts who masturbate in space, can impregnate women very easily: strict guidelines over ' alone ' time in space. NASA has warned that male astronauts masturbating in space, is a major hazard: female astronauts could g…
A dormant black hole at least nine times the mass of the Sun has been discovered just 160,000 light years from Earth, orbiting a star. A team of researchers – known as the ' black hole police ' because they have debunked so many black ho…
The universe is flat, according to scientists. But to say our universe is flat and leave it there would be irresponsible – it’s not quite that simple. So, we must first delve into what scientist mean by “ flat ” and how they came to such a conclusi…
There's something in deep space that is sending out a signal to Earth in a continuous sixteen-day cycle. We’ve just found out that a series of complex alien signals coming from space are not as random as we initially thought. A new study reveal…
A new discovery has potentially doubled the number of super-massive black holes that astronomers thought existed in our Universe. Super-massive black holes were traditionally thought to be at the center of all big galaxies, such as our own Milky…
Scientists have observed an extremely rare particle physics event using a detector that’s hunting for dark matter, the mysterious material that physicists have yet to observe. In a paper published in the journal Nature, researchers with the XENO…
The Sun, Earth, and the entire solar system also are in motion, orbiting the center of the Milky Way at a blazing 140 miles a second. Even at this great speed, though, our planetary neighborhood still takes about 200 million years to make one c…
If you've ever wondered about your place in the vast enormity of the universe, the video below is for you. In its latest video, Kurzgesagt, which is known for its top-notch animations paired with existential questions and satisfying answers abo…
From time to time, neutron stars do something very, very strange. The rate of its rotation changes absurdly. This is called glitching, and we do not know what causes it - but now astronomers have observed it for the first time using a radio telesco…
Researchers have made an incredible discovery. The Earth’s outer atmosphere extends much further than expected, stretching to 630,000 kilometers (391 000 miles), which is roughly 50 times the diameter of our planet. Obviously, you cannot breathe th…
NASA has been a household name for Americans since the '60s when it achieved the seemingly impossible, landing humans on the Moon. Since then, NASA has explored other alien surfaces like, Mars and Saturn's moon Titan, as well as flown by ev…
It's black hole week, and on Wednesday, NASA released what could be considered this year's black hole week theme music. It is, quite literally, the soundtrack of a black hole. More specifically, it's the melody of a vast, monstrous c…
Believe it or not, according to the Index of Objects Launched into Outer Space maintained by the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs, there were 7,389 individual satellites orbiting our little planet at the end of April 2021 (others plac…
Sagittarius A*, a giant “monster” black hole in the middle of the Milky Way galaxy, could be the way for human spacecraft to travel through space and time, a new study suggests. “One of the most cherished sci-fi scenarios is the use of black hole m…
