SpaceX has lost dozens of satellites after they were hit by a geomagnetic storm a day after launch, causing them to fall from orbit and burn up. Such solar “storms” are caused by powerful explosions on the sun’s surface, which spit out plasma and magnetic fields that can hit the Earth. The company, owned by billionaire Elon Musk, said up to 40 of 49 satellites from last week’s launch were hit. They...
Some prospective students of the Ashanti-Region-based Obuasi Senior High Technical School (SHTS) in a move to help address challenges during voting including multiple voting have come up with a smart ballot box. The ballot box according to the students displays the total number of ballot papers in the box and also prevents eligible voters from voting twice. Explaining how the modern box works, the Senior High School technical students said “the smart ballot box...
The space object was dubbed ‘Oumuamua, which is Hawaiian for – roughly – “Scout.” As space travelers go, it was relatively small at just about 100 yards long, but it was a big deal in the scientific community. A number of unusual properties about the object helped Loeb make this conclusion. The sun’s pull will speed up an object massively as it gets closer, then kick it out the other side, only for the object to slow considerably as it gets farther away. The object accelerated “Slightly, but to a highly statistically significant extent,” Loeb writes, as it moved away from the sun. ‘ Avi Loeb, Harvard astronomer and author of “Extraterrestrial” Loeb said the skeptics are bending over backward to assign natural origins to the object and that the explanations they’ve given to explain its weird properties don’t stand up to scrutiny. “If we are not alone, are we the smartest kids on the block? If there was a species that eliminated itself through war or changing the climate, we can get our act together and behave better. Instead, we are wasting a lot of resources on Earth fighting each other and other negative things that are a big waste.” Since ‘Oumuamua’s appearance, a second interstellar object known as 2I/Borisov was spotted entering the solar system by a Crimean telescope in 2019. Loeb said the technology will soon make it possible to locate more space travelers, and the only way the mystery of ‘Oumuamua will be settled is if a similar object is spotted and more thoroughly investigated with a probe.

Each social community has its faux information. And in animal communication networks, even birds discern the trustworthiness of their neighbors, a examine from the College of Montana suggests. The examine, just lately printed within the prime science journal Nature, is the end result of a long time’ price of analysis from UM alumni Nora Carlson and Chris Templeton and UM Professor Erick Greene within the Faculty of Humanities and Sciences. It sheds a...
One excessive climate occasion occurred practically month-to-month in Asian nation between 2018 and 2019. That’s according to a report free by the Centre for environment and Science (CSE) on this nation. The affiliation and depth of these excessive climate occasions throughout the second-most inhabited nation has taken local weather scientists and meteorologists by absolute shock compelling them to clarify it as a local weather emergency. African international locations are warned to require...
If it is quiet solitude and wonder you search, there isn’t any higher place than the floor of Mars. Mars has earned its moniker because the purple planet, however the HiRISE digital camera aboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) can remodel the delicate variations of soils right into a rainbow of colors. For 10 years, HiRISE has recorded attractive – and scientifically useful – photographs of Mars. Its pictures are so detailed...
For many fish, changing sex is a normal part of life. For the first time, we have found out exactly how one of these species – a small cleaner fish called the bluehead wrasse – does it. Erica Todd of the University of Otago in New Zealand and her colleagues removed some male bluehead wrasse from a few sites on reefs off Key Largo in Florida to trigger females to change sex. They then...
Launched in 1977, Voyagers 1 and 2 are the longest-running spacecraft, still operating at more than 11 billion miles from home, decades after the end of their nominal goal of exploring the outer solar system planets. They still get their power from the same three radioisotope thermoelectric generators, or RTGs, that have served them for years. But with these generators yielding less power every year, the spacecraft have started to flag. Mission controllers have had...
Could this be the eventual fate of Earth? Astronomers have discovered a grisly scene of planetary destruction, with a fragment of a planet being all that is left circling the dark remains of a dead star. The dead star, located 400 light-years away from Earth, is called SDSS J122859.93+104032.9 and has suffered a cataclysmic collapse. Astronomers from the University of Warwick, U.K., were looking at the white dwarf and were surprised to...
However, cultivating the crop won’t be easy as temperatures on the lunar surface can go over 100 degrees Celsius (202 degrees Fahrenheit) in the day and drop to minus 100 degrees at night. CHINA hopes to be growing potatoes on the dark side of the Moon within the next 100 days, it’s been revealed. When its Chang’e 4 spacecraft touched down on the lunar surface it was carrying a £1m airtight container designed for...
