It’s difficult for us, as individual human beings, with the feeling of distinctness and separateness we have, to comprehend that everything is interconnected. Indeed, we're so alone, at times, in this physical form which seems to differentiate each of us from the rest - where all our fortunes seem to be varied…
One of the greatest challenges of the modern astrophysics is an explanation about the origin (or formation) and evolution of the universe. This issue has been a heated source of discussions during the past centuries and even before since man began to learn about the universe. Following Einstein’s general theory…
Life is but a vapor, and the universe is vast. Its history is way past ancient. The timeline of the universe is almost unfathomable. If we take a look at this timeline of the universe, we see ourselves as an equivalent of only a few seconds. Can you imagine the…
The deep space is filled with cosmic wonders, many of which can't be explained. The following deep space wonders defy common logic and inspire scientists as they peer into the fathomless universe. 1. Bizarre Mass of Objects Orbiting Star A strange pattern of light found orbiting star KIC 8462852 Discovered…
I don’t believe the Earth is the only parasitic rock in the universe. Although it seems we are lone bugs on one of many orbs in the dark, there are indicators that could prove the opposite. Are we alone? One of the most interesting hints that we are not alone…
Dark matter is one of the unsolved mysteries in physics and astrophysics. This hidden matter, which is believed to form as much as 85% of the total matter in the universe, was first introduced about 60 years ago by the astronomer Fritz Zwicky. He developed and later proposed his “missing…
Brace yourselves! Apparently, there is a giant alien structure orbiting a star in a distant galaxy - over 1,500 light years away. Okay, you got excited at first, and then you noticed how far away this thing is. Regardless, you want to know what it is, don't you? Well, let’s…
Black holes are regarded as the most extreme case of gravity. They are objects so compact with extremely high gravity that even light cannot escape. Their properties were first studied by the famous American physicists Robert Oppenheimer and Hartland Snyder in 1939 who theoretically proved that whenever a star of…
