Science and technology, explained simply
Asteroid 2024 BJ, discovered only 10 days before its approach to Earth, was recorded by astronomers of the Virtual Telescope project. It is noted that at the closest distance, the asteroid was only 353,000 kilometers from our planet, which corresponds to about 92% of the average distance between the Earth and the Moon. Participants in […]
The exoplanet, discovered just 73 light-years away, allows us to see what baby Earth might look like if it were locked in a very narrow orbit with its star. The world is named HD 63433 d, a newborn exoplanet that is only slightly larger than the Earth, orbiting a Sun-like star. It is the smallest […]
A group of amateur astronomers was able to detect the collision and destruction of two icy giant planets. Over the past few years, amateur astronomers have helped professional scientists make many important discoveries either through direct observations or by analyzing data obtained during various space missions. As a result of studying such data, it was […]
