Science and technology, explained simply
According to oceanography expert Anna Valin, the search for the “needle in the haystack” is ongoing, but no one has any idea where it might be. Something unexpected could have happened to the boat. An unmanned submarine worth £3 million disappeared without a trace while exploring the Doomsday Glacier. This was reported by The Sun. […]
The first metal 3D printer to be used in space is headed to the International Space Station. The Cygnus NG-20 delivery mission, which carries a printer weighing 180 kg, started on Tuesday. Astronaut Andreas Mogensen will install a printer developed by Airbus for the European Space Agency. After that, the spacecraft will be controlled and […]
On February 2, SpaceX shared photos of the Megabay Base hangar with new Starship rocket boosters on X. They are preparing for the next three flights. The complete Starship system is approximately 122 meters high. According to SpaceX’s specification, this is the largest and most powerful rocket ever created, capable of launching up to 150 […]
The Dutch semiconductor leader ASML has unveiled a revolutionary “first commercial” entirely created by artificial intelligence. The video, titled “Standing on the Shoulders of Giants,” demonstrates the idea that the microprocessor industry and technological progress owe their development to the collective achievements of visionaries, as illustrated by a famous quote by Isaac Newton. How was […]
China plans to send two astronauts to the Moon by 2030. At an event titled “Exhibition of Achievements of the Chinese Manned Space Program,” which opened in Shanghai, China showed models of rockets and spacecraft that the country is developing to send its astronauts to the moon, Space writes. The exhibition features the Chang Zheng-10 […]
The analysis of data collected by the XMM-Newton X-ray telescope allowed the researchers to detect a deceptively “quiet” black hole. Its latent activity affects star formation processes throughout the galaxy. How black holes affect their galaxies At the center of almost every large galaxy is a supermassive black hole, whose powerful gravity draws in gas […]
Astronomers have discovered a unique system of planets consisting of six young exoplanets, and possibly a seventh, orbiting the young star TOI-1136. This discovery not only helps to deepen our understanding of the process of formation and development of planets around young stars, but also may be analogous to our solar system in the early […]
The potentially dangerous asteroid, almost 300 meters wide, will not come this close to Earth for almost 200 years. According to scientists from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, on Friday evening, February 2, an asteroid 271 meters wide will come to the closest distance to Earth in more than 100 years. It’s almost like three football […]
Elon Musk’s SpaceX company with its Starship spacecraft has won a contract to launch the Starlab commercial space station built by European Airbus SE and American Voyager Space. The amount of the new deal was not disclosed. The companies agreed to establish a joint venture to build an orbital station in August 2023. According to […]
A team of researchers has developed a simulation of the human heart that will be used to test drugs against cancer. The heart chip, developed by researchers at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, is made from human hiPSC stem cells and is capable of beating independently at about 60 beats per minute. Scientists will […]
