One of the last times we did an article about a technology that could remove lunar dust from clothing, we opened it with a famous meme line from Star Wars. That also means we should probably avoid subjecting everyone to it again here. Still, the fact that we’ve had an opportunity to use it more than twice recently proves that removing lunar dust is a problem that has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. Artemis, NASA’s program to go back to the Moon this decade, is the cause of a lot of that attention as there are plenty…

“It is possible even with existing technology, if done in the most efficient ways. New methods are needed, but none goes beyond the range of present-day knowledge. The challenge is to bring the goal of space colonization into economic feasibility now, and the key is to treat the region beyond Earth not as a void but as a culture medium, rich in matter and energy. Then, in a time short enough to be useful, the exponential growth of colonies can reach the point at which the colonies can be of great benefit to the entire human race.” -Gerard K. O’Neill,…
Over 13 billion years ago, the first galaxies in the Universe formed. They were elliptical, with intermediate black holes (IMBHs) at their centers surrounded by a halo of stars, gas, and dust. Over time, these galaxies evolved by flattening out into disks with a large bulge in the middle. They were then drawn together by mutual gravitational attraction to form galaxy clusters, massive collections that comprise the large-scale cosmic structure. This force of attraction also led to mergers, where galaxies and their central black holes came together to create larger spiral galaxies with central supermassive black holes (SMBHs). This process…
A newly discovered asteroid called 2023 DW has generated quite a buzz over the past week, due to an estimated 1-in-670 chance of impact on Valentine’s Day 2046. But despite a NASA advisory and the resulting scary headlines, there’s no need to put an asteroid doomsday on your day planner for that date. The risk assessment doesn’t have as much to do with the probabilistic roll of the cosmic dice than it does with the uncertainty that’s associated with a limited set of astronomical observations. If the case of 2023 DW plays out the way all previous asteroid scares have…
In case you haven’t heard it before, there’s an emerging hypothesis that a giant cloud is actually out there in our world and that it’s extremely near to our earth. Multiple experts found it on their telescopes, but the news didn’t receive too much coverage. That’s before NASA commented on it. That’s correct, NASA has publicly announced that this Nearby Interstellar Cloud, which scientists have claimed for the longest time, is true and that it’s coming straight for us for no discernible cause. The assertion was first created back in December 2009 and, as far as we realize, our world…

Yet another UFO sighting was reported in Krasnodar, Russia as this time a massive alien ship was seen going across the sky with relative ease. https://youtu.be/g2akvp0hBtE But that’s not all, as the story goes on further than that to the point where multiple locals also reported having seen several giant creatures come out from the ship and walking around the planet’s surface not caring about being spotted by anyone around. The UFO and the aliens had both been spotted near the village of Vodniki, in Krasnodar, as the authorities were called at around 4 AM by the witnesses that saw…
Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for the Villarreal defender Pau Torres in recent months. A report from 90 min revealed back in November that Tottenham made inquiries to sign the Spanish defender at the start of the season and they are likely to make a move for him at the end of the season once again. Now a report from the Spanish publication AS claims that Paris Saint-Germain are keen on signing the defender at the end of the season and French international Kylian Mbappe wants the French club to sign Torres at the end of the season. There is no…
A baby weighing no less than 7.3 kilos was born in Brazil. The baby boy was born by cesarean section. For the time being, he still has to stay in an incubator, but according to the circumstances, he is doing well, according to the doctors. The giant baby was born last week in the Brazilian city of Parintins. Mother Claydiane Santos dos Santos (27) went to the hospital for a check-up, but doctors ruled that it was no longer possible to wait before giving birth. Although the mother was already in her 40th week of pregnancy, she could not take…
Parents said that their son was always agitated during pregnancy, so every night they played “Sonata in the Moonlight”, by Beethoven for him to calm down. Check out! Little Joaquim, who was born last Thursday (2), and his parents, Vitor, 39, and Juliana Cavalcante, 39, from Rio de Janeiro, moved the web with a video that went viral. “Daddy put on a song every day for the baby to sleep inside the belly, and then he was born and decided to do this”, they wrote in the recording. Shortly after delivery, the baby was crying on the mother’s chest. To…
The moment a new baby enters the world changes everything for the adults and siblings who have spent nine months waiting to meet their little one. It’s a beautiful, emotional moment that many families are choosing to document with birth photography. A transgender man who became a father for the third time decided to share some photos of his birth to show that they too can live this experience and break down barriers for the LGBTQ+ community. Yuval Topper-Erez confessed that the images are just over a year old. However, he had not dared to make them public because at…

Photo by LOIC VENANCE/AFP via Getty Images After pursuing him for a fair few years now, Real Madrid are reportedly bored with Kylian Mbappe’s transfer scenario, as per MARCA. They will not pay attention to him unless he publicly expresses his desire to leave. Madrid understand that while Mbappe is a fan of their club and will likely eventually end up in the Spanish capital, they also know that they cannot force the move right now, especially with PSG’s financial power backing his stay. The Frenchman was incredibly close to joining Madrid at the end of last season on a free…
Christophe Galtier has claimed that he ‘does not need to convince Kylian Mbappe’ to stay at the club, despite strong suggestions that the French winger could move to Real Madrid. It comes as Paris Saint-Germain were knocked out of the Champions League, following their 2-0 defeat by Bayern Munich on Wednesday night, with the Bundesliga side winning the tie 3-0 on aggregate. The 24-year-old, who played the full 90 minutes of that last-16 clash, has reportedly been a target for the Galacticos for some time now, with reports suggesting last September that Mbappe had left the door ‘wide open’ for Real to come and get him. Yet,…
Artist’s impression of a hypervelocity star. Credit: ESA The fastest stars in the Milky Way hurtle along at over a thousand kilometers per second. Ph.D. candidate Fraser Evans has conducted research into these elusive hypervelocity stars and discovered that they have a lot to teach us about black holes and supernovae, for example. Hypervelocity stars (HVS) are stars that move so fast they can escape the gravity of the Milky Way. In 2019, astronomers discovered a star—the S5-HVS1—which covers an astounding 1,755 kilometers per second. Dozens of these stars have since been found. But there are probably about a thousand of them…
Venus imaged by the Magellan spacecraft. Credit: NASA/JPL Today Venus has a dry, oxygen-poor atmosphere. But recent studies have proposed that the early planet may have had liquid water and reflective clouds that could have sustained habitable conditions. Researchers at the University of Chicago, Department of Geophysical Sciences, have built a new time-dependent model of Venus’s atmospheric composition to explore these claims. Their findings have been published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Water is everywhere in our solar system, usually in the form of ice or atmospheric gas, though occasionally in liquid form. On all of the planets, many of…
California startup Relativity Space is carrying out a test flight of the world’s first 3D-printed rocket, the Terran 1. The launch of the world’s first 3D-printed rocket was ultimately scrubbed after several tries on Saturday, marking a new setback for the private owner of an innovative spacecraft billed as being less costly to produce and fly. Engines had begun igniting on the unmanned Terran 1 rocket, built by California aerospace startup Relativity Space, when an “automation” issue caused the company to abort takeoff for the second time in less than a week. A little later, the company tried again to…

Photo by BERTRAND GUAY/AFP via Getty Images Paris Saint-Germain’s recent exit from the UEFA Champions League at the hands of Bayern Munich has once again sparked speculations over Kylian Mbappe’s future at the club, with many believing that the forward may push for an exit. PSG have reportedly handed Mbappe an ultimatum to make a definitive decision on his future, especially amid interest from Real Madrid. A report from Diario AS, as relayed by Goal, now states that Real Madrid are considering relaunching their attempts to sign Mbappe. The club are harbouring the dream of signing the player on a free transfer in…
