Physicist Brian Cox offered a grim prediction of what will happen to Earth once the Sun reaches the end of its life cycle. Cox also briefly described what would happen to Earth during this cosmic disaster.
A pair of researchers have suggested creating a zip line between Earth and the Moon for a more practical way to transport people and supplies to the lunar surface. According to their study, their proposal about creating a Spaceline is like an improved version of the Space Elevator.
NASA has detected an asteroid almost as big as the Empire State Building that’s on a near-collision course with Earth. The agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) has classified the massive space rock as a potentially hazardous asteroid (PHA).
A former British politician and current official of the space nation Asgardia warned that an asteroid impact event similar to the one that wiped out the dinosaurs is guaranteed to happen. The official noted that once this happens, over 90 percent of life on Earth would be wiped out.
A physicist claimed that Earth and the entire universe could already be inside a black hole. According to the physicist, this theory is related to the idea that the Big Bang was actually a black hole.
NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter has captured an incredible image of an avalanche on the Red Planet. According to NASA, avalanches on Mars regularly occur during springtime.
NASA is closely tracking five massive asteroids that are currently headed for Earth this month. The biggest one from the group is capable of creating a 6-mile-wide crater if it collides with Earth.
NASA is monitoring an asteroid that’s currently headed for Earth. Based on the size of the asteroid, it will most likely explode mid-air and create a huge fireball if it enters Earth’s atmosphere.
NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) will officially meet next week to discuss the details of a joint mission that involves deflecting asteroids. The focus of the upcoming mission will be the sub-kilometer near-Earth asteroid Didymos and its moon.
The former administrator of NASA offered a very brief and chilling response when asked about the possibility of a sudden asteroid impact on Earth. Based on the official’s response, it seems Earth’s chance of surviving such an impact is very slim.
Residents in Central New York reported hearing and seeing a large fireball streak across the sky on Monday. According to an astronomy organization, the fireball was caused by an asteroid or meteor that entered Earth’s atmosphere.
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory was able to capture a stunning photo of the Swan Nebula. It is known as one of the largest star-forming regions in the Milky Way galaxy.
NASA has detected an asteroid that will approach Earth tonight. If the asteroid breaches Earth’s atmosphere, it will most likely explode mid-air instead of crashing to the ground.
Astronomers from Canada were able to identify Earth’s cosmic fingerprint. According to the astronomers’ new study, the fingerprint can be used as a template in finding habitable alien planets that are similar to Earth.
Aside from the threat posed by massive asteroids, the death of the Sun could also cause the end of Earth. According to astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Earth would freeze within minutes following the Sun’s death or sudden disappearance.
NASA is currently tracking a massive potentially hazardous asteroid (PHA) that’s headed for Earth. According to the agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), the approaching asteroid is almost as big as the Empire State Building.
NASA is currently monitoring two large asteroids that are expected to dangerously approach Earth. According to the space agency, one of the incoming asteroids is almost as big as the Statue of Liberty.
A professor from the University of Westminster in London offered valuable insight regarding Earth’s chances of surviving an asteroid impact. In addition to Earth’s survival, the professor also talked about the likelihood of an extinction-level impact event happening.
NASA has recently discovered two asteroids that are currently headed for Earth. According to the space agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), one of the approaching asteroids is almost as big as the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy.
NASA is currently expecting two asteroids to approach Earth this weekend before the month ends. Based on the sizes of the asteroids, these space rocks will most likely explode mid-air if they breach Earth’s atmosphere.
A physicist offered a serious warning regarding the possibility of a black hole completely devouring Earth. According to the physicist, there’s a chance the planet could get thrown in the middle of a black hole in the future.
A scientist explained that an asteroid is capable of melting continents and boiling oceans if it is large enough. The scientist made the chilling statement while discussing humans’ chances of surviving a major asteroid impact.
