Icy water detected in fresh moon craters may have several sources, suggest scientists
Researchers from Brown University and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) found that the icy water in the moon may have sources besides volcanism and meteorites. In a study published in the journal Icarus, the researchers revealed that the ice deposits in some of the moon’s south pole craters formed relatively recently, suggesting other processes must be involved. Icy […]

Former NASA engineer claims alien spaceships are hiding in Saturn’s rings
Norman Bergrun, a former engineer at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), has claimed that giant alien UFOs have spread all over Saturn’s rings. These “living alien UFO spaceships” are self-reproducing, siphoning energy from the rings as well as using them as a hiding spot. What’s more, their number has been increasing rapidly, such that, according to Bergrun, […]

Study debunks claim galaxy is made of 98% dark matter
Researchers from the University of Groningen in the Netherlands and the University of La Laguna in Spain suggest that Dragonfly 44 may just be a dwarf galaxy instead of a mysterious galaxy comprised mostly of dark matter. In a study published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, the researchers noted that Dragonfly 44 has a much lower total mass than […]

Study: Massive protostars may be “chemical factories” for essential ingredients to life
A recent study published in the Astrophysical Journal has found large quantities of prebiotic molecules around massive protostars. Using an airborne telescope, the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA), an international team of researchers detected chemical fingerprints suggesting the presence of these molecules, which are considered essential ingredients to life. “It turns out that these stars are like chemical factories churning […]

Astronomers unveil first direct image of young exoplanet just 63 light-years away
An international team of researchers has recently obtained the first direct image of the exoplanet Beta Pictoris c (B Pic c), confirming its existence since its indirect discovery in 2019. The “baby” exoplanet, which is estimated to be around 18 million years old, is the second planet known to orbit the star Beta Pictoris. The star […]

NASA details complex mission to collect rock samples from asteroid Bennu
In just a few weeks, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will be making history as it attempts to collect its first rock samples from an asteroid. The autonomous spacecraft OSIRIS-REx will be touching down briefly on the asteroid Bennu on Oct. 20. Through its robotic arm, it will scoop rocks on the landing site Nightingale, a 52-foot […]

Scientists identify 24 exoplanets that may be more habitable than Earth
Researchers from the U.S. and Germany have uncovered two dozen exoplanets that may be better at supporting life than Earth. Exoplanets, celestial bodies that orbit a star other than the sun, are found everywhere in the cosmos. Some of them are located in the orbital region around a star, called the liquid water habitable zone, where planets could have stable atmospheres […]

Free fuel for satellites: Large asteroids close to Earth could be mined for water, suggest researchers
It appears the Moon isn’t the best option for mining water in space. Recent research published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets found that asteroids close to Earth may be rich in water, making them better candidates for space mining. Researchers identified several of these asteroids and said that they are easier to reach than the Moon. Most of these near-Earth objects (NEOs) […]

Researchers develop device that can better detect signs of extraterrestrial life
A group of researchers has developed a fully automated device that could better detect signs of alien life. Astronomers have been trying to look for evidence of extraterrestrial life for decades. They typically use detection methods that look for carbon, which is an important component of organic compounds. But current technologies are limited; some devices can’t […]

New theory suggests how magnetars, a type of neutron star, can crack themselves open and send gamma-ray flares to Earth
Earth was pummeled by three separate series of intense gamma-ray flares in the last 40 years. While scientists agree that magnetars, a type of neutron star, were behind the flares, the mechanism that unleashed those waves of energy remains unknown. A recent study offers a compelling theory to what that mechanism is. Researchers from the University of […]
