The nebula is about 1500 light years from Earth. Astronomers received the nebula М78, which consists of three parts. The nebula is about 1500 light years from Earth in the constellation of Orion, its length is about five light-years. The tint of the nebula is due to the fact that …

Scientists discovered in the Universe a record of distant black hole monster. Farthest from the Earth “supermassive” black hole 13 billion light-years from our planet. Hole, absorbing matter, arose from the 690 million years after the Big Bang, and now we see it exactly as it was then. It weighs …

There may be several. Astronomers decided to conduct a computer simulation to potentially the possible destruction of our Earth. It turned out that there may be more than a hundred. Talk about how our planet will die and the Solar system, excite the minds of scientists for a very long …

NASA has discovered a giant dark hole in the solar atmosphere. The Solar Dynamics Observatory, NASA took this ultraviolet picture of the coronal holes on 8 November, and NASA published it on Monday (20 November).

It turns out that the planet was water. Astronomers have announced that they have found on the Northern hemisphere of Mars large deposits of ice and traces of flows of melt water, which was moving over the surface of the red planet in the age of the dinosaurs on Earth. …

In Hawaii, spotted something strange in the scale of our solar system. At first, astronomers thought that a fast-moving faint light is a comet or asteroid of our solar system. But based on its orbit, astronomers realized that the object came from interstellar space. They acted quickly, and several telescopes …

For unique shots researchers have shown how can be lost the Sun. NASA astronomers, using the Hubble telescope, made some unique images of the supernova explosion. It was named SN 2014J and it is located in the galaxy M82. Images show the distribution of light from the explosion, a phenomenon …

In the vicinity of the nearest star to the Sun found the whole planetary system. An international team of astronomers using the ALMA telescope have discovered evidence that in the vicinity of Proxima Centauri, the nearest star to the Sun is the planetary system and asteroid belt. The study is …

The mystery of the mysterious moon of Saturn Tethys is finally revealed by scientists with the help of a probe “Cassini”.Previously, scientists had no opportunity to examine a very bright satellite of Saturn, however, using data obtained from the probe “Cassini”, researchers have learned a lot. Note that the probe …
