Aussie scientists’ time travel breakthrough
A group at University of Queensland physicists have used light particles to simulate a key process that indicates how time travel might be possible despite well-known clashing theories. Led by PhD student Martin Ringbauer, the research will add to the study of how time travel could be possible and... read more »
New type of dust discovered on Mars
A weird new kind of dust has been discovered in the Martian atmosphere by scientists using ultraviolet and infrared imaging techniques. A group of Russian and French scientists analysed satellite-acquired data and concluded that the dust particles in the planet’s atmosphere can be of two... read more »
NASA Telescope Captures Rare Supernova Explosion
The Spitzer Space Telescope revealed images of a supernova explosion in which a dead star sucked off the remaining cosmic energy of an aging star. NASA scientists categorized this explosion as Type Ia, a type of supernova explosion where white dwarfs are detonated. These newly-captured images may... read more »
NASA sends hi-tech ‘sandals’ into space
NASA has sent a pair of high-tech ‘space sandals’ to the International Space Station (ISS) to better understand how heavy loads can damage an astronauts’ bones and muscles. The ForceShoe will be worn by astronauts to further our knowledge of the forces at play when operating at... read more »
