SpaceX is getting ready to launch the world’s most sophisticated operational rocket, Falcon Heavy by the next week. This powerful rocket is powered by 27 engines and has attained several milestones since its completion. The last time that SpaceX launched this rocket was in 2019. But after three years of resting, the American aerospace company […]
Unlike sending robotic missions to another planet like Mars, NASA is working towards sending astronauts and their cargo to the red planet. The American space agency has never attempted to reach this milestone in the past. Hence, NASA needs to think differently for the success of these future large-scale missions. The agency is currently working
Around 13.8 billion years ago, the big bang occurred allowing the universe to come into existence. After the big bang, galaxies, stars, planets, black holes, and other cosmic bodies began to form. Astronomers believed that our milky way galaxy was formed around 13.8 billion years ago. To put that into perspective, this is approximately 200
Earth has remained the only habitable planet known to mankind for centuries. Humans are not the only living species being sustained by mother Earth. In fact, scientists estimated that around 8.7 million species of plants and animals are being nurtured by our home planet. But with our recent technologies and explorations, we were only able

Methane is one of the most powerful greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming 80 times more than carbon dioxide over a period of 20 years. In fact, scientists recently discovered that methane has contributed to more than 30% of global warming since pre-industrial times. The good news is that we are currently using satellites
Astronauts aboard the international space station do not need spacesuits to access breakable air. This implies that the space station is specially designed to provide humans with breathable and suitable living conditions outside Earth. But how does the International Space Station produce oxygen and water? Will it ever run out of oxygen? What is the
