Many experts speculate that there could be liquid water present on Mars. If it does exist, it would be a briny liquid with magnesium chlorate salts. This theory is based on discoveries of NASA’s Curiosity rover and the Viking and Phoenix landers. Scientists from the Department of Earth and Space at the University of Washington …

Spacecraft Offers New Solar Perspective The sun contains many secrets that are slowly being revealed by breakthrough discoveries in outer space. Voyager 2, a NASA spacecraft, has exited the heliosphere (a boundary of solar wind emitted from the sun) , a feat matched only by its namesake, the Voyager 1. Both spacecrafts were launched by …
New Purposes of Black Holes Black holes are warps in outer space, where there exists a field pressure so strong that neither particles nor radiation may escape its grasp. Scientists have discovered traces of a far-reaching wind that may have originated from the cradle of the universe. The new studies may provide a better understanding …
Martian Orbiters May Provide Inaccurate Water Assessment Our closest planetary neighbor, Mars, is often associated with microorganisms, breathable air and the presence of water. New findings suggest that sensitive instruments equipped on Martian orbiters may be responsible for inaccurate data that may have been providing false scientific evidence, especially regarding salt water streaks. The hydrated …

Another Strange Star Scientists have discovered yet another peculiar blinking star, observed to be much like the maverick Tabby’s Star, known for its physically flickering trait and associated with alien controversies. The discovery of the star may encourage new questions on the issue of extraterrestrial life. Possible reasons for the blinking physical trait include …
Ancient Asteroid Contains Signs of Water A closer inspection of the asteroid, Bennu, hints at the existence of water. Experts from the NASA Osiris team reports of instrumental discoveries on the surface of the rock. The carbonaceous Bennu may be a fragment of a much larger parent body and had separated from its core about …
BLACK BEAUTY METEORITE SUGGESTS LIFE ON MARS STARTED EARLY A new study says that Mars was a potentially habitable planet. The process of planet formation involves heat. Rocky planets such as Earth and Mars ended up covered molten rock after they formed. On Mars, the oceans of molten rock froze up immediately, which could have …

Scientists have discovered 100 new exoplanets outside our planet’s solar system. They were identified as the scientists hunt for a planet much like our Earth. Some of these exoplanets might contain life as well. Studying them could gauge just how normal our planet is. These exoplanets were discovered using data from DTU space or the …
Bruce Willis has nothing to do with the NASA’s new plan to prepare for an asteroid hit. The White House, FEMA, and NASA officials recently discussed their new asteroid-mitigation strategies. The possibility of an asteroid hitting the earth is something everyone should anticipate. The residents of earth should always have a degree of preparedness. The …
NASA’s telescope known as the Chandra X-Ray Observatory looks at the universe’s sources of high levels of energy, such as quasars, supernovas, and black holes. These are areas of the cosmos that cannot be seen by the naked human eye. For more than ten years, this observatory has helped researchers look at the universe as …
