SPACEAn iconic comet will be zooming past Earth this weekend, just in time for April Fool's Day. Many have been dealt with to a heart-pounding celestial happening recently when a space rock or asteroid flew really close to Earth in January, and also several stunning cosmic sights in February.
NASA scientists found Earth-like waves on Sun that could predict space weather. Between 2011 and 2014 NASA launched three satellites to scan the Sun in every direction.
It has been suggested that changes in solar output might affect our climate. Scientists believe a weaker sun could reduce earth temperatures by at least half a degree.
Ice age is a period where the majority of the Earth's water freezes into ice by recurring glacial expansion. An ice age lasts for millions of years and till now earth has experienced 5 major Ice ages.
The earth's magnetic field can be compared to a big coconut, which is protecting us from charged particle and cosmic radiation that bombard planet in the solar wind.
The limitless space of the Universe contained with uncountable stars, several planetary systems, Pulsars, black holes, Nebula, Supernovas etc. Apart from these cosmic objects, some distinct properties also result after the Big Bang. Scientist presumes these properties may hold the answer of the early stage of the Universe.
NASA is ready to capture the different alignment of stars and planets with their satellites. NASA is doing its best to capture every important happening in space.
Scientists discover 4.3 billion-year-old traces of Earth's original crust in Canada.Samples of rock harvested in Canada are thought to contain parts of Earth’s crust dating back to more than 4.3 billion years ago.
Around 717 million years ago, Earth experienced Major Volcanic eruptions and aerosols from the volcanic event may have been the reason of Earth's glaciation.
From very long time scientists have been working on several theses behind the appearance of cellular life on Earth. The most important fact is all these theses rely on a set of complex Biochemical processes known as the metabolic pathway. Krebs cycle is one of the most important metabolic pathways among all.
Humans are the main reason for the rapid climate change and they are also the solution for it. Many scientists and other climate enthusiasts have been saying that it is the human race's fault that our planet is at this rate.
Leaf-cutting ants can learn which plants are not suitable for the fungus gardens that supply their food.Their success as farmers has made leafcutter ants into fungus tycoons, complete with their own underground cities and huge half-inch soldiers to patrol them
Scientists may have found the oldest fossil on Earth in Canada. Scientists have found some small tubes and filaments in a Canadian rock. These things might be the oldest known fossil on Earth, according to them.
Scientists from NASA had recently revealed a plan to revive the oceans of Mars. NASA is planning to bring back the oceans of Mars! If everyone would believe the words of acclaimed scientist Stephen Hawking who said that people only have 1000 years left here on Earth, then it definitely is important that mankind finds another habitable planet.
Just last week, NASA announced about the TRAPPIST-1 system which has seven exoplanets where three are deemed to be habitable due to the presence of liquid water. With the recent finding of the Cornell University, it seems that a fourth planet can also be livable.
Adding to the tally of last year's 3 Earth like planets, NASA discovered 4 more such planets. The latest finding revives the search for life beyond our planet.
A new study on Mars reveals that it is more similar to Earth than previously thought. Scientists have long been searching for planets similar to Earth wherein mankind would be able to survive.
The earliest evidence for life on Earth is graphite found to be a biogenic substance in 3.7 billion-year-old metasedimentary rocks discovered in western Greenland and microbial mat fossils found in 3.48 billion-year-old sandstone discovered in Western Australia.
