As tropical storm Dorian threatens to become a hurricane, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) released a statement regarding the use of nuclear weapons against massive storms. According to the agency, aside from being a ridiculous idea, nuking hurricanes also won’t work.
NASA provided an official answer regarding the growing concerns about the Sun exploding and turning into a massive black hole that can devour Earth.
Researchers made a surprising discovery after analyzing the images of the near-Earth asteroid Ryugu. According to the researchers, an unseen force seems to be affecting the surface of the asteroid.
NASA has spotted one of the biggest potentially hazardous asteroids that will approach Earth this year. According to the agency, the approaching asteroid is over three times bigger than the Eiffel Tower in France.
A video revealed what would happen if a planet-killer asteroid that’s capable of triggering an extinction-level event hits the Yellowstone supervolcano. According to the video, the overall effect of the impact would depend on the size of the asteroid.
NASA has discovered a new exoplanet that bears a striking resemblance to the fictional desert planet Tatooine featured in the “Star Wars” film franchise. But, unlike in the movies, the exoplanet has three suns.
A video has been released showing the level of destruction that the city-killer asteroid Apophis will cause once it hits Earth. As seen in the video, the asteroid can cause a wide-scale effect upon impact.
Astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson gruesomely described how humans will die if they get sucked into a black hole. According to the scientist, the human body will go through an excruciating process called spaghettification once this happens.
NASA is currently monitoring a total of three asteroids that are set to approach Earth before the month ends. One of the asteroids from the group, which will fly closest to the planet, is almost as big as the Washington Monument.
A new study has confirmed that the world will be plunged into a nuclear winter following a nuclear war between the U.S. and Russia. According to the study, the war between these two superpowers would trigger a global environmental event that can last for several years.
The European Space Agency (ESA) is currently monitoring an asteroid that has a non-zero chance of hitting Earth.
