Does This Substance Indicate Life Existed on Mars?

could it be POSSIBLE? The evidence that life existed or exists on Mars is a very debated area.  With the curiosity rover in 2015 getting taking never before seen  pics of the Mars surface, there is a ton of additional data that some feel indicate life existed.  And, if that wasn’t enough, they also detected

Backwards Time Travel May Not Be a Good Idea

What do you think? Time travel is an often debated topic and more than ever with new theories regarding E=mc2 and the beginnings of our perceivable universe.  And when the term “perceivable” is used here it refers to our capability to comprehend time or lack thereof.  We may not be able to comprehend it at

They Took a Picture of “Thunder” for the First Time EVER

you read that correctly… There are awesome pics of lightning but finally they took a picture of thunder?!  The actual waves and properties of physics that happen around the visual light part that we associate with lightning was seen on camera.  Here is an excerpt from the report: For the first time, scientists have precisely

Guy Makes an “Orb Weaver” Pulse Motor and Fires it Up

Have you ever seen one of these? Ambitious home inventor makes a bizarre and awesome electric coil.  A lot of these types of devices are based on the works of Tesla and of course basic electric properties.  However, many experimenters have tried different shapes and configurations to see if it increases efficiency.  Here is how

They Found A New “Planetary System” In Our Own Galaxy

Wait what? Astronomers really think they have figured things out, they find something extremely unusual.  If you have heard of brown dwarf stars or not, they pretty much straddle the line between stars and, at least in the way we are able to understand them.  And depending on who you ask, it is kind of like

Black Hole Galaxy Messier 106 May Have Some “Secrets”

Have you heard about this? This has BAFFLED astronomers for years.  A lot of the pics of this galaxy were from The Hubble, and surprisingly they got some help from an amateur astronomer.  Messier 106 is particularly mysterious for a number of reasons: Located a little over 20 million light-years away, practically a neighbor by

Is Searching For Aliens Really a Good Idea?

say this works…then what? An astronomy professor weighs in on the risks is we made contact.  Most of us have an internal curiosity about what other life forms would look like, act like and just making contact in general.  We are generally expecting aliens to be friendly (It may be human nature to think positively).  One

What Astronomers Found Was 13.2 BILLION Light Years Away

the space distance record has been broken… Astronomers beat the previous record that was estimated to be 12.9 billion light years away.  Can you guess what they found?  It wasn’t an individual star but actually a quasar.  A quasar is different from a regular galaxy in that they have luminosities way higher.  Many quasars for example

5D Printing Did He Just Say That?

weren’t we just getting into 3D… When you add time and movement to the 3D printing mix crazy things can happen.  We just started with 3D printing and it’s not entirely mass adopted yet.  Then, some people on the internets 😉 have spoken about 4D printing which involves objects that actually change shape, hence the

70,000 Years Ago a Shooting Star Passed By At Close Range

Did you know about this? What is crazier the fact that his happened or that they figured it out?  It is mind boggling what astrophysicists can figure out with math.  Apparently we had a cosmic close call not that long ago.  I guess by cosmic standards 70,000 years is a very short period of time

Will We Ever be Able to Travel to Kepler 452b?

it is THE most Earth like exoplanet ever found… When NASA announced the finding of Kepler 452b  it changed things.  So would it make sense to try to travel there and see if this planet which likely has an atmosphere similar to ours has organisms?  Well to most science fans, they know it’s distance would be

Have You Heard of the Ancient Site Gobekli Tepe?

they only recently found this place… What happened there 12,000 years ago that changed things forever? Archaeologists still cannot explain how this site was built or by whom.  It is absolutely mysterious and how and why it was constructed remains a mystery.  Here is a bit more information on the prevailing yet debated theory about

Have You Heard of the “Coanda Effect” in Physics?

it might blow you away 😉 Transportation of the future and efficient energy may depend on this physics property.  It is named after Henri Coanda after he came up with a bright idea that you may or may not have heard of before.  It has to do with airflow and believe it or not, how

“Magnetic Bubbles” At The Edge Of The Solar System

what are these things? Were you aware of a strange phenomenon happening in our solar system?.  As telescopes and mathematical formulas get more sophisticated, the “things” we are finding continues to amaze astronomers and science fans alike.  THEY found magnetic bubbles in our own area of the galaxy…really close actually by cosmic standards. Here is

Top 10 Signs That Aliens Actually Exist

Are any of these right? Most astronomers and science fans think that aliens exist somewhere.  Although we do not know for sure, the mathematical probabilities are very likely.  There are over 100 billion visible galaxies in the known universe.  And in that case known means which we can see.  And, each one of these has

Time Experiment From 1971 Gives Some Interesting Clues

this is bizarre and awesome… Does the past, present and future all exist at the same time?  Could this actually be?  I personally think this MAY be possible but am not ready to just accept that 100%.  However, it is a fascinating possibility that has drawn the attention from more than a few people.  In
