A new photo of Jupiter has found a new spot. What's it?
New photo of Jupiter taken by the Hubble Telescope Jupiter is considered the largest planet in the solar system. It mainly consists of a huge amount of hydrogen and helium, so it has a much lower density than many other planets. M...
What is the impact crater and which one is the largest in the Solar system?
Ganymede is the largest moon in the Solar system Probably in the entire Universe there is no planet or satellite with a perfectly smooth surface. And all because in space objects of constant flow of complex processes that can affe...
What is black planet and do they exist?
Exoplanets are planets orbiting other stars. Recent studies have shown that black planets (hot Jupiters) exist. The black planet in the observable Universe was discovered space telescope NASA Spitzer. Incandescent ball of gas or &...
Is it true that our ancestors killed the Neanderthals?
About 40 thousand years ago on Earth there lived several members of the genus of people. The most numerous of them were our ancestors Homo sapiens and the Neanderthals. To live on the same planet several types of bipedal creatures...
Scientists are killing the stars in a computer simulation. But why?
to unravel the mysteries of black holes, a team of Australian astrophysicists simulates a virtual star — and then repeatedly killing them. But about all under the order: 12 April 2019 Observatory LIGO and VIRGO have detected gravi...
How are ghosts and a computer simulation of our Universe?
What if everything around is not real? Imagine for a moment that the planet on which we live, the Solar system, our Galaxy and, ultimately, all that we consider to be infinite, in fact, nothing more than a simulation. I know it so...
How to paint old movies and how much it costs
it is considered that previously, sugar was sweeter, the grass is greener and the girls prettier. Also, many warm memories of watching black and white movies with the family and receive from it huge pleasure. ”Beware of the car”, ...
The closest to the Earth supernova caused the mass extinction 2.6 million years ago
Flash is a phenomenon that marks the end of the life cycle of a massive star, which is accompanied by a sharp increase in its brightness. However, thanks to supernova appeared all life on Earth, including us. Thus, the atoms in yo...
Discovered a new potentially habitable world
K2 Exoplanet-18b located at a distance of 124 light years from Earth, was discovered in 2015 in the constellation of Leo, orbiting the red dwarf star K2-18. After analyzing the atmosphere of a detected object, scientists have foun...
What could be life on Jupiter?
— one of the Galilean rotating at pretty close to the planet giant orbit. Scientists have for a long time arguing about the existence of any alien life under a thick layer of ice that small moon, as comprehensive observatio...
On Jupiter have more water than previously thought. What does this mean?
The first details on Jupiter were obtained by the probes Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 in the late twentieth century. Today they were replaced by the NASA spacecraft Juno, which is the second interplanetary probe mission . The Juno laun...
Astronomers have discovered a "hot Jupiter" which orbits very close to the native star
Each year, astronomers discover many new exoplanets. Some of these distant worlds covered with ice, while others are in the habitable zone. It is possible that on some earth-like planets have life. However, there are other "hellis...
Would look like the supernova from Earth?
Beloved by many, the star may become a supernova. This opinion was previously expressed by many researchers. The fact that the brightness of Betelgeuse — a red supergiant — began to change in 2019. This means that soon...
Engineers could make Tesla even better
Among our readers it is difficult to find those who do not believe in , which has almost become a household name for the entire line of electric vehicles from different manufacturers. About the fact that almost all major players i...
What if our planet became super-earths?
super-earths — a unique class of planets, whose masses range from two to ten Earth masses Since the discovery of the first exoplanet some 30 years ago, scientists were able to locate over 4,000 celestial objects are differen...
Tesla remotely disabled the autopilot on the Model S after the resale of the car
Many people buy Tesla because of the advanced autopilot Tesla remotely disable the autopilot feature on supported after its resale. Currently, the company claims that the owner of the car who purchased it from a third party dealer...
Astronomers have confirmed the existence of super-earths in the vicinity of the Solar system
In the system of Proxima Centauri, discovered another planet — our nearest neighboring star, which is just 4.2 light years from us. For a long time, scientists believed that the Proxima system, there is only one planet R...
Found a few potentially habitable supertall
Scientists have discovered several potentially habitable planets in the vicinity of the Solar system Scientists have been seriously concerned about the eternal question of whether inhabited neighborhood of our Solar system. Accord...
The first recorded observation of geological processes on Europa
the Surface of Europa The largest planet of the Solar system — — known not only for its colossal size but also the presence of the four large satellites, each of which is a truly unique place in our solar system. A spe...
The supercomputer was able to solve the impossible task
a Quantum computer Sycamore I Think Google just managed to make a real revolution in computer science. Using software called Sycamore, a Google representative said on «quantum superiority» on the most powerful supercompu...
