Universe’s Gammay-ray bursts can leave behind Black holes

The most powerful explosions in the universe is nothing but the Gamma-rays burst, these Gamma-rays burst occurs when certain stars collapse in the universe and release overwhelming blast of energy and the cosmic left over which is considered as a violent outburst of nature. Studies have suggested that Gamma-rays bursts can leave behind black holes [...]

Mars Hoax back again

Emails circulating claim that on the 27th August, mars will appear as big as a moon and this is once in 60,000 years event! Photos also are attached to make this look dramatic. This could look too good to be true, and yes, it is a hoax. Mars did come very closer to earth, as [...]

Arecibo telescope finds critical ingredients for the soup of life in a galaxy far, far away

This is just tomato soup, not the “soup of life.” Astronomers from Arecibo Observatory radio telescope in Arecibo, Puerto Rico, have detected for the first time the molecules methanimine and hydrogen cyanide – two ingredients that build life-forming amino acids – in a galaxy some 250 million light years away. “Just add water!” said Robert [...]

Supercomputer could throw light on ‘mysterious’ dark energy

Looks pretty cool, eh? Cosmologists have run a series of huge computer simulations of the Universe that could ultimately help solve the mystery of dark energy. Results of the simulations, carried out by Durham University’s world-leading Institute for Computational Cosmology (ICC), tell researchers how to measure dark energy – a repulsive force that counteracts gravity. [...]

Distant star sheds light on the birth of planets

Astronomers poring over a young star 180 light years from Earth have found evidence that stellar birth can lead to the formation of a planet only millions of years later, a mere blink on the cosmic timescale.

Parallel universes, could they really exist?

Just a couple parallel universes An article published yesterday suggested the idea that our universe may be no more than a “speck of cosmic dust” amongst the infinite number of parallel worlds. This idea isn’t really anything new, however, an increasing number of scientists are beginning to at least warm up to the idea of [...]
