Our use of battery-operated devices and appliances has been increasing steadily, bringing with it the need for safe, efficient, and high-performing power sources.
When astronomers discovered the first exoplanet around a normal star 2 decades ago, there was joy—and bewilderment.
Stars and comets make unlikely dance partners. Their gravitational partnership is one that astronomers have long suspected but have never seen — until now. For the first time, a Polish group has identified two nearby stars that seem to have plucked up their icy partners, swinging them into orbits around our sun.
The exotic system provides a preview of our own solar system’s fate.
Our Aneutronic Warm Fusion System concept implements Inertial Electrostatic Confinement to deliver a modern era Boron Fusion product that bridges induced thermal design barriers common to ALL on-going efforts.
The ancestors of the people who built Stonehenge travelled west across the Mediterranean before reaching Britain, a study has shown.
Using data from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), astronomers at the University of Maryland (UMD), in College Park, Maryland, have captured a clear start-to-finish image sequence of an explosive emission of dust, ice and gases during the close approach of comet 46P/Wirtanen in late 2018. This is the most complete and detailed observation to date of the formation and dissipation of a naturally-occurring comet outburst. The team members reported their results in the November 22 issue of The Astrophysical Journal Letters.
The US Government has recovered ‘physical evidence’ of UFOs, a Fox News host has sensationally claimed.
A new study links a slew of extra-terrestrial impacts millions of years ago to our planet’s most unique feature—plate tectonics.
