Recently, the company Moon Express has gone public with their plans to mine the Moon. In order to Mine the Moon, Moon Express would like to create a new class of spacecraft, known as the MX Robotic Explorers. Moon Express plans to build a robotic outpost on the South Pole of the Moon using this new…
Oldest Asteroid Family We Know Of!
Recently, Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) was involved in the discovery of a few asteroids that are likely pristine relics from early in our solar system history. These asteroids were found in a quite unpopulated part of the main asteroid belt. The main belt contains a whole lot of irregularly shaped asteroids. While telescope technology advances, we’ll…
Brian Greene’s Opinion on Time Travel
So today, we have a video on Brian Greene’s opinion of time travel. Let me give you a bit of backstory on Brian Greene if you’ve never heard of the guy. Brian is an American theoretical physicist, mathematician, and string theorist. He’s been a prof. at Columbia University ever since 1996. So he’s a…
This Student Gave a “Clever” Answer That Will Have You Laughing
how can the teacher NOT give him an A+? There are many different ways of learning and scientists are proving this daily. A few weeks ago there was quite a buzz about a certain test answer: A child who was marked incorrect for saying “5+5+5=15” on a math test. Well, no one’s arguing with this…
In 1969 NASA Reported a “Strange Noise” That Remains a Mystery
they STILL don’t know what it was… To this day they still have no idea what it was. Some have speculated that is was “alien music” and others have thought it may have been a comet. In May 1969 Apollo 10 astronauts heard something on the other side of the moon. Here is a…
He Made A Gyroscope In His Shop and it…
did you know a gyroscope can do THIS? This ambitious and clever home inventor makes a precision gyroscope in his maker space. Many home enthusiasts and science fans know a gyroscope exhibits magical properties in that it seems to float when it spins. You can see these effects all over the world. Here is his intro to…
They Predicted a Supernova Before It Happened and Then…
Whoa! This is the FIRST time ever for astronomers and it just happened. A supernova is one of the most violent events in the universe. Most stars just kind of fizzle out near the end of their life. However, supernova are unique in that they collapse upon themselves and then produce a super explosion hence…
The Juno Spacecraft Will be Flying by Jupiter Closer That Anything EVER
finally… The gas giant planet has been one of the greatest mysteries of our solar system. And now for the first time ever they are gonna get a super close view of the planet. Super super close and never seen before to be correct! Here is a bit more on what to expect: The Juno…
In 1972 Something Happened That Changed…
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ whoa! Take a journey into a mission that is not often talked about and had big significance. Not a lot of people know about the Apollo 17 mission. It was really in the 1960s and 1970s when NASA started getting ambitious. Do you have any ideas what happened out there? Here is an…
What is the Smallest Thing in the Universe?
this “THING” is debateable… HINT: it is not an atom or electron and waaaay smaller. Many videos cover the largest distances that we can even imagine measured in light years! However this one examines: the smallest unit of measurement in the Universe, the Planck Length. What is Planck Length? Is this just a subatomic particle, theory…
Scientists Saw THIS Cool Phenomenon When They Experimented
Can you guess? An amazing illusion is actually real and scientists use a property of physics to amaze you. This super cool physics effect called the Leidenfrost effect has been harnessed and actually used for an invention! It is an unusual phenomenon that allows water droplets to levitate and even climb uphill. Physicists at the…
5 Time Travel Theories That are Bizarre
Time travel has to be possible right? (We are of course traveling through time now) but what about going into the past or way faster into the future? There have been many theories on this throughout the millenium and here are 5 of the most intriguing theories in regards to the subject whether pro or…
5 Mysteries Of Our Solar System That Remain Unsolved
astronomers are still baffled by these… Do you know about the Venus Vortex? Or maybe you have or haven’t heard of some of the others on this list. Even in our own are of the woods so to speak this list remains a mystery. With the ability to see galaxies, quasars and other formations at extremely…
They Examined the “Alien Wow Signal” From 1977 at a Different Frequency
something else weird happened in 1977… Can you guess what happened when they looked at the 1977 message this way? Many of us are familiar with the S.E.T.I. program and the general search for extraterrestrials. And the famous signal of 1977 is being examined at a different frequency in this video. Here is an intro…
Did Time Travel On a Particle Level Just Get Proven?
Are they serious? Have you heard of the double slit experiment where light can take two forms? In this experiment scientists have applied a similar principle to the atomic level. Particle physicists are probably jumping up and down over this. You may also have come across some videos by ‘Veritasium” where he demonstrates the double…
Rumors of a Time Travel Tunnel ALLEGEDLY Discovered in China
this is veeery far out there… There are rumors of a time travel tunnel in the East. Is this true or is it bogus? Here is what the video maker had to say about this phenomenon: Does a Time Travel Tunnel exist in China? The “time tunnel” as locals call it, mysteriously dial back the…
Do You Know What The Smallest Thing In The Universe Is?
Any guesses? Plenty of videos cover the largest distances that we can even imagine measured in light years! However this particular video examines: the smallest unit of measurement in the Universe, the Planck Length. So what is Planck Length? Is this just a subatomic particle, theory or something else? Here is a wikipedia excerpt about Max Planck:…
Is The “Speed Of Dark” Faster Than The Speed Of Light?
Bet you never thought about this? This debate about the science of speed will make you THINK. The speed of light has been discussed and measured obviously but what about a different way of measuring the universe and its properties? If memory serves correct the speed of light is about 186,000 miles per second. Even…
Who Built The Ancient Ollantaytambo In Peru?
Do you know? When they flew over it with a quadcopter they got never before seen footage of this Incan mystery. The types of structures shown here seem almost impossible to have been built with the tools that would be available at that time period. This has led many archaeologists as well as enthusiasts to…
This 350 Year Old Question Was Finally Answered!
It took them long enough 😉 This scientific question, although seemingly simple, has baffled scientists for 350 years until now. There is a phenomenon that happens with two pendulum clocks which you would not intuitively think was complicated to figure out: Almost 350 years ago, Dutch inventor and scientist Christiaan Huygens observed that two pendulum…
