Despite all the debate on how the Solar System formed, there are two ideas that astronomers generally agree on: (1) there was a period of planetary instability at some point in our history, which knocked planets out of their original circular orbits and caused them to migrate and gain ...
The solar system could collapse because of a passing star, scientists predict | The Independent
Scientists have warned that if a passing star moves Neptune 's orbit by just 0.1 per cent, the resulting chaos could cause the other planets in our solar system to collide.
The research, presented in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society , suggests that a "stellar flyby" - a relatively common occurance in the universe - could be enough to sent the other planets crashing into each other.
When did the sun blow away the solar nebula?
Some 5 billion years ago, our neighborhood of the galaxy was a nebula made of hydrogen gas and some dust. That provided the seeds of what became our solar system. Somehow, a part of this molecular cloud began to clump on itself.
During its birth process, the infant sun in its birth crรชche went through what's called the T Tauri phase. It blew extremely hot winds filled with protons and neutral helium atoms out to space. At the same time, some of the material was still falling onto the star.
Giant Comet K2, twice the size of Mount Everest, heads for Earth! NASA reveals time | Tech News
Though the distance seems very far from the earth, the Comet will be bright enough to be visible through binoculars or telescopes. As predicted by EarthSky , it might get as bright as magnitude 7, and hence it will be well within reach of telescopes or binoculars.
According to NASA , the Oort Cloud is the most distant region of our solar system that is home to a huge number of comets. It is believed to be a giant spherical shell made of icy pieces of space debris the size of mountains and sometimes larger that surrounds the solar system.
Massive dangerous asteroid Bennu not solid rock, like ball pit - NASA - The Jerusalem Post
The massive asteroid 101955 Bennu , arguably the most dangerous asteroid in the solar system, may not be as it seems, with NASA 's OSIRIS-REx spacecraft determining the hard solid rock surface actually has the consistency of a plastic ball pit.
Undead planets: The unusual conditions of the first exoplanet detection - ScienceBlog.com
The first ever exoplanets were discovered 30 years ago around a rapidly rotating star, called a pulsar. Now, astronomers have revealed that these planets may be incredibly rare.
The processes that cause planets to form, and survive, around pulsars are currently unknown.
"[Pulsars] produce signals which sweep the Earth every time they rotate, similarly to a cosmic lighthouse," says Niศu. "These signals can then be picked up by radio telescopes and turned into a lot of amazing science."
NASA May Send Swimming Robots to Space to Search for Habitable Oceans | The Inertia
Founded in 1958, NASA has made incredible discoveries and advancements in regards to space exploration and aeronautics research. At NASA , their mission is to “explore the unknown in air and space, innovate for the benefit of humanity, and inspire the world through discovery.
NASA recently announced they have $600,000 in funding for the study. Their plan is to send the swimming robots (also known as independent micro-swimmers) to explore the solar system’s many “world’s oceans.
The 7 Best Solar Companies in Florida of 2022
There's a reason Florida is known as the Sunshine State: It gets an average of 237 sunny days per year, making it an ideal place to switch to solar power and harness the sun's energy.
