Yes, Magnetar Produces Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) But No One Knows Exactly How? It was in 2007 when astronomers confirmed the first detection of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) where they also observed its traces, scattered across the …
Photon from the Sun that Just Touched You Was Formed Some 10 Million Years Ago Stars like Sun generates energy (light, heat) by a process called nuclear fusion where two or more atomic nuclei are combined to form one or more different …
How are Stellar Spectra Produced and Measured and it’s General Characteristics The most important methods of forming a spectrum are by means of an objective prism or a slit spectrograph.
Recent Study Shows About Half of Sun-Like Stars Could Host Rocky, Potentially Habitable Planets About half of the Sun-like stars could host rocky, potentially habitable planets and Milky Way alone could hold about 300 million of them.
ESO's VLT Captured Bloodshot Colours of Freakish Skull Nebula Astronomer predicts that this Nebula was formed when a Sun-like star expelled its outer layers in its old age, leaving behind its naked core - a white dwarf - one of two stars that can be seen at the very centre of NGC 246.
Weird Molecule 'Cyclopropenylidene (C3H2)' Found on the Atmosphere of Saturn’s Moon - Titan And No One Knows How Closed-loop molecules are important because they form the backbone rings for the nucleobases of DNA, the complex chemical structure that carries the genetic code of life, and RNA, another critical compound for life’s functions.
