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 […]
The idea of building an entire universe in Minecraft appears like an impossible task to accomplish. However, a young YouTuber named ChrisDaCow took the bold step to replicate the entire universe in Minecraft. But how did Chris build our Cosmos in Minecraft? Is this a sign that we may be living in a simulation? Continue

For years, we have known black holes as mysterious objects that consume whatever comes around their event horizon without burping out anything from their inside. However, astronomers were fascinated with the recent discovery of a black hole spewing out the remains of a star it devoured three years ago. In October 2018, astronomers observed a
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

We have discovered subsurface oceans beneath the miles-thick icy surface of Europa (Jupiter’s icy moon) and Enceladus (Saturn’s moon). For years, scientists have developed the idea of using robotic explorers to navigate subsurface oceans to advance our search for the existence of life beyond Earth. Scientists have revealed that the presence of subsurface water on
Since NASA’s Juno spacecraft arrived in the Jovian system on July 4, 2016, the spacecraft has been making numerous scientific discoveries for mankind. However, the American space agency is expecting to learn more about Europa from the forthcoming Juno flyby on the icy moon. On Thursday, Sept. 29, at 2:36 a.m. PDT (5:36 a.m. EDT),
After NASA officially announced that its DART Spacecraft will be colliding with Dimorphos, a small asteroid at about 7 million miles (11 million kilometers) from Earth on September 26, the entire world looked forward to the success of the mission. Last night, NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) space probe successfully crashed into the small
