Astronomers admitted that they were unaware of the presence of the massive asteroid that barely missed Earth last week. The asteroid was dubbed as a “city killer” due to the level of destruction it would have caused if it collided with Earth.
A massive space rock officially classified by NASA as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (PHA) is currently headed for Earth. According to the agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), the approaching asteroid is almost twice as big as the Great Pyramid of Giza.
A team of researchers has discovered a new black hole that seems to be eating its way through the Milky Way galaxy. According to the researchers, the black hole is currently about as big as Jupiter.
NASA has detected a massive asteroid that will approach Earth at a very dangerous distance. According to the agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), the asteroid will be less than a fifth of the distance between the Earth and the Moon from the planet during its approach.
A new study by researchers from NASA and the Boise State University in Idaho revealed that cyanide and carbon monoxide in meteorites, which is known to be poisonous to humans may have been responsible for helping life thrive on Earth.
The Canadian province of Ontario was lit up by a meteoroid as bright as a full moon. Given the size of the fireball, experts believe it may have caused meteorites to strike Earth.
For years, the appearance of cone-shaped meteorites falling on Earth has baffled scientists. Recently, a team of researchers was able to understand how they form through experiments.
NASA has detected three massive asteroids that are currently headed for Earth. According to the agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), one of the approaching asteroids will fly closer than the Moon.
Environmental experts have warned that space tourism, which is being spearheaded by various private aerospace firms such as SpaceX, Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic, will have devastating effects on Earth’s atmosphere. Aside from contributing to climate change, the effects could also leave humans exposed to radiation from the Sun.
A group of scientists showed what quakes on Mars, also known as Marsquakes, look and feel like through a realistic simulation. They compared these with typical seismic movements on Earth as well as quakes on the Moon.
An asteroid classified by NASA as potentially hazardous is currently on its way to Earth. According to the data collected by the space agency, the approaching asteroid is bigger than the Golden Gate Bridge towers.
China’s space station Tiangong-2 is planned to be deorbited and returned back to Earth on Friday. Although it will be brought down in a controlled manner, the China Manned Space Engineering Office (CMSEO) warned that some debris from the space laboratory will still hit the Earth.
An asteroid bigger than the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy is on a near-collision path with Earth. According to NASA, the asteroid is expected to approach the planet on Friday.
NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA) and even a Christian pastor have identified a gigantic asteroid that could hit Earth on a Friday the 13th. According to data gathered by the agencies, the massive space rock is almost as big as the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
NASA has detected a potentially hazardous asteroid that has a non-zero chance of hitting Earth next month.
Researchers from various universities around the globe have discovered that Earth’s core has been leaking for the past 2.5 billion years. This could have devastating effects on the planet’s magnetic field, which plays a vital role in supporting life on the planet.
NASA has detected a massive asteroid that’s currently headed for Earth. According to the space agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), the approaching asteroid is bigger than the Statue of Liberty.
An employee from NASA revealed that almost nothing can be done to prevent a wide-scale impact event caused by a massive asteroid strike. According to the employee, the U.S. government would feel as helpless as the people of Earth when it comes to addressing the catastrophic event.
A UFO expert claimed to have photographed three unidentified objects flying in formation in the U.K. According to the UFO expert, the objects appeared briefly before disappearing completely.
A documentary on NASA’s lunar mission revealed what the Apollo 11 astronauts were doing inside their spacecraft when their radio temporarily died as they flew across the dark side of the Moon. The revelation was made through previously classified sound recordings of the interactions between the astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins.
Due to the looming threat of a major asteroid impact, an astrophysicist described what would happen to Earth during the catastrophic event. According to the astrophysicist, aside from the devastation caused by the actual impact, Earth will also suffer through the event’s prolonged effect on the environment.
For the first time, astronomers have come across a possible moon that’s currently forming in a distant star system. According to the astronomers, they found traces of a cosmic structure that’s similar to the one that formed Jupiter’s moons billions of years ago.
