What are THE Most Insanely Powerful Objects in Space?

these are mind boggling… Which formations do you think made this list?  The universe is a mysterious and wonderful place that we may never fully understand.  We can still study and appreciate its awesomeness.  And within the visible universe that we think we understand there are some objects.  This video checks them out in more

Why is Every Pic of a Black Hole an Illustration?

some think this might change… Possibly THE biggest mystery in astronomy are black holes.  Some people don’t even think they exist and they might be right who knows?  And a fact that may  also not be known, at least very much so within the space fan community is that all pics of black holes to

Is it THE Most Important Planet Found Outside our Solar System?

is this POSSIBLE? This new planetary discovery has astronomers and the internet buzzing!  They discovered a new exoplanet and  GJ 1132b and it is only 39 light years away.  It is fairly similar to Venus and they are making a big deal for a variety of reasons.  The properties of this planet are very similar

Did a Mysterious Object Crash Into Jupiter?

Plenty of observers have suggested — with varying degrees of seriousness — that the bright

25 Things About Black Holes That Will Amaze You

these stats are AMAZING… They STILL do not know what black holes actually are.  And these unusual space phenomena may likely defy the laws of physics we think we understand and have entirely different properties than we even know about.  In the enclosed video, there is a list of some of the more bizarre facts: Much like

Are You Able to Decode This “Alien Message”?

this is TRIPPY… This is a hypothetical puzzle inspired by the arecibo message.  What do you think can you solve this thing?  Here is the background on this unusual and fun exercise: In a post on the MPISSR website, he asked the Internet to decode the message and answer the following questions: 1.

These Black Holes Are Spitting Wind 1/4 The Speed of Light

that is AMAZING… Astronomers have spotted some black holes doing crazy things!  This can be added to the list of many astronomical observations that almost seem to defy the physics properties we think we understand.  Here is a bit more about what they discovered: Two black holes in nearby galaxies have been observed devouring their

NASA Was Asked What Happens if we Find Aliens and They Said THIS

their answer may be a bit surprising! NASA states a perspective that may be very different than what you would expect!.  In an interview NASA wasquestioned on many different subjects, including the controversial and out there topic of a warp drive.  The one discussion that piqued our interest was about extraterrestrials.

THIS could get interesting… Could this be one of the best new areas to search for extraterrestrials?  Some think yes.  And once again from the team at ESO they made an incredible discovery.  Exoplanets have gotten a lot of attention in astronomy within the last few years and these three new planets that they spotted

Could We Actually be in a Binary Star System?

this is out there and POSSIBLE… Some smart folks have a fascinating theory that is rarely discussed!  We have heard of science fiction stories about two stars in our own solar system.  And we know binary systems exist in other parts of the universe.  So, could there really be two stars in our vicinity??  This

Are THESE “Storms” Beaming Signals to Earth?

now that is TRIPPY… Some astronomers think this phenomenon may be happening!  You may have heard about the mysterious signal detected in 2015 that many called an FRB or fast radio burst and its origins remain a mystery.  However, in a related story this team thinks lightning may be responsible for a similar phenomenon: Ferocious
