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…
NASA Tested THE Rocket That Could Get us to the Red Planet
that is AMAZING… Have you seen this insane footage? Apparently NASA tested a new version of the sls rocket and it is so cool! A lot of people are saying this is the one that could get us to Mars. And is that a good idea? People chime in on both sides of that argument.…
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…
Could Any of These Interstellar Space Travel Systems Actually Work?
some say yes is is just WHEN? Will we ever accomplish this? Well, possibly focusing on the closest star to us may be a way to start. Here is an intro into this video which ponders a few different ways we might achieve interstellar travel: Alpha Centauri is a three-star solar system 4.37 light years…
Mysterious Space Signal Indicates “Missing Matter” in…
whoa…what do you think this is? They have only ever detected a few of these types of signals. And apparently this one is changing the scientific modeling of a lot of astronomy departments. Basically an FRB is a fast radio burst. They still do not know for sure where they come from but the majority…
Alien “Wow” Signal Examined Again At A Different Frequency
this “happening” is STILL a mystery… 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 the intro: Lets crack this alien signal! The Wow! signal was a strong narrowband radio signal…
What Are THE Most Powerful Objects That…
some of these are so weird… Quasars, neutron stars and other space phenomena like it come to mind when thinking of powerful objects in the universe. Do you know what they are? This video gets into depth with some very cool graphics: How does energy stitch the cosmos together, and how do we fit within it?…
Astronomers Spot a Massive “Diamond Planet” Orbiting a…
??? This is one of the most amazing finds in the last 10 years. Neutron stars are responsible (or at least a lot of astronomers think so) for FRBs. Fast radio bursts are not often detected and they come from deep space. And in this video they found a strange planet orbiting a neutron star.…
Top 10 Strangest Stars Ever Found in Space
have you seen em?? trip out! Here is a list of 10 of the strangest stars that we have seen in space. Some are similar to our own Sun and some display properties that are incredibly unusual and much different than our own. One type of star that is actually very strange is a Wolf-Rayet:…
Top 10 “Super Earths” Discovered This Year
this is crazy…did you know about THESE? Exoplanets may be the biggest discovery in all of astronomy for the last decade. Some may argue other galaxies and the like may be more fitting to say are the most amazing finds. However, actual planets that may have properties like ours and that are observable with giant…
Astronomers Discover a “Wind Nebula” That…
They have never seen anything like it before. Apparently they found a wind nebula around the most powerful magnet they have ever spotted in the universe. What does that mean exactly? Here is how they describe it: A massive cloud of high-energy particles called a wind nebula has been spotted encircling an incredibly rare ultra-magnetic…
Wonder How a Black Hole Jet Busts Through a Galaxy?
FINALLY… After decades of research astronomers have finally figured out this mystery. These space phenomena are potentially the most debated in all of astronomy. There are even some astronomers who say they don’t exist. For the one’s that do think they exist, the have solved a problem that perplexed them for a long time: Sometimes…
What Is This “Liquid Planet” Theory All About?
have you heard of this? THIS theory is so strange and changes what we think we know about planets. Astronomers have different theories on the universe but this one will make you scratch your head. From string theory to the theory that the universe is one big vacuum there are differing ideas about this vast…
They Just Found New Evidence Regarding “Planet X”
whoa this is AWESOME… This might just be one of the biggest discoveries in astronomy…ever. You may have heard of “planet x” some people call it by different names. it is all but proven to be just at the edge of our solar system from numerous astronomers. It was the team at Cal Tech that noticed…
Where is the Top 5 Most Mysterious “Space Signals” Coming From?
the origins are STILL unknown… From the SETI program to crop circles there have been plenty of mysterious regarding things we may have or have not “detected”. Even in the last year or less there has been updates about an “alien star” which is sending off some strange signals. Here is another to add to…
The Things That Live On Mars…Science Fiction Or Science Reality?
could there be SOMETHING out there? The Curiosity rover and other data has presented a strange scenario. The ever informative and interestinc “SpaceRip” does it again with a great video that explores Mars from an astronomical as well as a theoretical perspective: At the end of the 19th century, the Italian astronomer, Giovanni Schiaparelli, noted…
What in the Heck is “Gravitational Lensing?
have you heard of THIS? This term is not often discussed but has very big universal importance. Many of Einstein’s theories and experiments have gotten a resurgence in the last year or so including the 1971 time experiment. And in the enclosed video they get into depth in regards to how we view the universe…
This “Treasure Trove” Of Planets Is Unlikely
Astronomers found an amazing discovery… The Messier 67 cluster has some planets orbiting stars there which has baffled some people. This was considered an extremely unlikely discovery as this is an extremely rare phenomenon for clusters like this.

Astronomers Want to “Terraform” Jupiter and Mars…
is that even possible? Is this a good idea as first it was Jupiter and now Mars is being discussed for this strange deployment? There have been many discussions, and some that have progressed pretty far in regards to terraforming other planets.
