Supermassive black holes located in the centers of galaxies are the most massive objects in the universe. Their masses range from about 1 million to 10 billion solar masses. Some of these black holes also eject giant, superfine plasma jets…
Observing space using a radio telescope, an international team of scientists led by Cornell University discovered radio bursts emanating from the constellation Boete. This signal may be the first radio emission collected from a planet outside our solar system. A…
When it comes to the moon, everyone wants the same thing. Not in the sense of general high scientific goals, but in the sense of commercially profitable objects – places rich in resources. In a new study, a group of…
The discovery, which connects stellar flashes with radio bursts, will allow astronomers to recognize the cosmic weather in the vicinity of nearby stars located outside our solar system. Unfortunately, the first such reports show that the cosmic weather in the…
The general theory of relativity is a complex mathematical theory, but its description of black holes is surprisingly simple. A stable black hole can be described by only three properties: its mass, electric charge and rotation. Since black holes are…
We can learn a lot about climate change in Venus, our sister planet. Currently, the surface temperature of Venus is 450℃, and carbon dioxide (96%) with a density 90 times higher than Earth prevails in the atmosphere. Venus is a…
