Interplanetary hoppers: Microbes from Earth may have reached Venus by hitchhiking on asteroids
If Venusian life does exist, it may have originated from Earth: An interplanetary hopper hitched a ride with an asteroid that grazed Earth’s upper atmosphere and landed on Venus. Researchers from Harvard University — astronomy professor Avi Loeb and student Amir Siraj — proposed the idea after a group of scientists recently detected signatures of phosphine. Microorganisms can produce […]

Shapeshifting robots straight out of sci-fi can be used to explore volcanoes and caves on Titan, Saturn’s moon
Engineers at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have found a way to help scientists gain access to worlds located in the depths of outer space: the Shapeshifter robot. Currently being tested in a robotics yard at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in California, the current Shapeshifter prototype, according to its engineers, can split […]

Could Venus have harbored life eons ago?
Venus may have once harbored oceans two to three billion years ago, suggests a study presented at the Joint Meeting of the European Planetary Science Congress and the American Astronomical Society’s Division for Planetary Sciences. Researchers from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Goddard Institute for Space Studies ran five simulations of the planet’s environment based […]

Mysterious dimming of Betelgeuse is caused by outburst from the star itself, study suggests
A hot outburst from supergiant Betelgeuse may have caused the star’s recent dimming, according to research conducted using the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)’s Hubble Space Telescope. From December last year to April 2020, scientists observed that Betelgeuse dimmed, sparking speculations that the supergiant is facing a very imminent end. Surprisingly, Betelgeuse began shining brightly […]

Space-time ripples could help scientists uncover exoplanets from other galaxies
Scientists detect exoplanets by analyzing light from the planets themselves or their stars. This method led to the discovery of thousands of worlds within the Milky Way, but none beyond the galaxy. That could change, suggests a recent study, with the use of gravitational waves – invisible ripples in space and time that travel at the speed of light. These waves […]

Violent collisions in space millions of years ago led to 100 times more meteorite impacts on Earth and unleashed space dust, studies suggest
Meteorites taken from the Thorsberg quarry in Sweden suggest that violent collisions occurred in space about 470 million years ago, flinging rapidly traveling meteorites toward Earth. Birger Schmitz of Lund University in Sweden is leading the research on the meteorites aged millions of years old. His team’s findings, published in the journal Nature, show that the meteorites hold new and […]

Nearby “super-Earth” exoplanet could support life, suggest scientists
Astronomers have found an exoplanet – a planet located outside of the Solar System – that they believe may be capable of supporting life. An international group of astronomers made the discovery with the help of NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). Dubbed a “super-Earth,” the exoplanet was found in the Hydra constellation, about 31 […]

Researchers use AI to simulate the universe: The simulation works, but it’s “a great mystery” that’s yet to be understood
Researchers have announced that, for the first time in human history, artificial intelligence (AI) has been able to create a simulation of the universe in a way that seems to work like the actual thing. However, the researchers aren’t entirely sure how it works. In their study, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of […]

Mesmerized by the ocean? To understand why the moon is where it is, start with Earth’s tides
As far as the human race remembers, the moon has always been there. But how did it get up there in the first place – and what keeps it revolving around Earth? By firing lasers at artificial mirrors deployed on the moon, researchers have learned that Earth’s satellite is drifting away at the rate of […]

Not all Earth-sized planets are habitable: Study says those around younger stars have “no hope of sustaining life”
Planet hunters looking for habitable planets outside the solar system may save themselves time by ignoring younger stars. A European study has indicated that exoplanets around these stars are unlikely to sustain life because their hosts would have burned away their atmospheres. If true, it would be a shame. The latest searches for exoplanets showed […]
