Recent Gullies on Mars Suggest Water Could Flow Again on Earth in the Future

Streams like streams on Mars are an amazing thing. They look like rivers in Antarctica because of the melting glaciers, but high altitudes are not places where we expect to find running water any time soon. So how did the rivers of Mars form? Carbon dioxide ice has been proposed as an alternative, but a

Cat noses and nose structures work better than modern drug detection equipment

Scientists have cracked the mystery of the amazing ability of cats’ noses. Cats have a special system of air circulation in their nasal passages that seems to be a mystery. The spikes in the bones in their noses give them the amazing ability to smell food, friends, and enemies. A detailed study of the cat’s

The IceCube neutrino detector in Antarctica released the most energetic neutrinos in our Milky Way galaxy.

The South Pole IceCube Neutrino Observatory – the world’s largest and most spectacular telescope – has detected the first emission of neutrinos from within the Milky Way, an achievement that will change the way astronomers view our galaxy. Neutrinos are tiny, electrically charged particles that pass through matter undetected. They are formed in extremely complex

Scientists discover ‘small objects’ that exit our Milky Way galaxy in massive discovery (video)

Astronomers have discovered high-energy neutrinos coming from the interior of our Milky Way galaxy, which could open an exciting new window of research, a new report reports. Neutrinos they are very difficult to see, because they do not collide with atoms. A light-year-sized conductor would stop about half of the neutrinos flying through it (which

An 860-Million-Year-Old Quasar Was 1.4 Billion Masses of the Sun

It wasn’t long after the Big Bang that the first galaxies began to change the universe. Less than a billion years later, they had already begun to gain weight. In particular, their central black holes were behemoths. New JWST images show two giant galaxies as they appeared less than a billion years after the universe

Carbon capture technology: The future of clean energy or costly and inefficient waste?

Congress has recently provided billions of dollars to support the growth of carbon capture technology. If the Environmental Protection Agency’s new rules go into effect, many fossil fuel plants could be forced to use carbon capture technology. However, carbon sequestration has met with considerable criticism as a costly and wrongful distraction in the fight against

How to see comet E1 ATLAS in the night sky in July near the Little Dipper

A newly discovered eagle makes for some exciting sky-gazing this summer. Comet C/2023 E1 ATLAS was discovered in March 2023 by the Asteroid Terrestrial-Impact Last Alert System (ATLAS), which is sponsored by NASA and operated by the University of Hawaii. These four telescopes spread over Hawaii, Chile and South Africa scan the sky to find
