An asteroid about 20 meters in diameter, discovered a few days ago and called RC 2014, will pass close to Earth on Sunday. Near means about 34,000 kilometers above the planet, ten times closer than the Moon, following a path going lower height than the geostationary orbit (36,000 km) in which many meteorological satellites operate. […]
You must have heard about the doomsday theory as how a rogue planet is going to crash into Earth on Friday (December 21, 2012) and kill us all? Some people are fascinated, and sometimes frightened, by rumors of the Mayan end-of-the-world myth. According to the urban legend, the world will end when the Mayan […]
Earth to add a leap second today Today, “you get an extra second,” says Geoff Chester, spokesman at the U.S. Naval Observatory. “Don’t waste it.” International timekeepers are adding a second to the clock at midnight universal time (that’s 5 p.m. Pacific time). Universal time will be 11:59:59 — and then the unusual reading of […]
A massive solar wind was sent earthward due to magnetic disturbances According to scientists, some powerful magnetic disturbances in Sol’s corona have thrown a large burst of charge particles into space on March 4, 2012. The solar storm erupted from the sunspot AR 1429 at 11:13 PM and according to reports from NASA, it is […]
Philippine Tarsier emits high-frequency calls like bats A team of scientists has recently discovered that the Philippine tarsier (Tarsius syrichta) just like bats, can communicate through pure ultrasound. It issues calls that are so high-pitched, that human ears can’t perceive. Marissa Ramiser, an evolutionary biologist at the Humboldt State University California, noted that the tarsiers […]
Astronauts have said that our planet earth barely survived a collision with an asteroid which they claim was the size of a bus. However, experts say that they are not concerned about the impact that the collision would have had. This finding is certainly not a shocker as such types of asteroids are rarely seen […]
Global Warming and its effects on earth The ‘earth’ is the only known planet where life exists as it is compatible to the requirements of living creatures. However, it also gets effects from other planets and the most important planet is Sun, which is also a pivot, around which earth revolves. Sun throws its rays […]
Life possible on Mars says Australian scientist Charley Lineweaver Scientists in Australia have claimed that life could be possible on Mars, as large parts on the planet have conditions similar to Earth. Charley Lineweaver from the Australian National University (ANU) conducted a research, comparing models of the Earth and Mars, and found out that there […]
North American Space Agency (Nasa) astronomers, with the help of Keleper-22b telescope, have discovered an Earth-like planet which can host life. This planet lies in the habitable zone outside Earth. However, the scientists are not sure about the temperature, conditions and exact location of the new planet. Some researches fear that there may be no […]
Latest study proves that comets were the reason behind Earth being a habitable planet If scientific research is anything to go by, our planet earth should never have been the cosmic garden it is. In a solar system of planets and moons that are mostly rock and gaseous, earth is probably the only planet that […]
