The ‘trans-Neptunian object’ takes nearly 300 years to travel around our Sun. Much like Pluto, the first trans-Neptunian object discovered, 2021 XD7 has a strange orbit that is considerably more tilted than the movements of Earth, Mars, and other planets. The closest it gets to the Sun is still 30 times further than our own…

Scientists discovered a new type of thermonuclear explosion that may never be seen again

Posted on February 25, 2022 by Agitator!!

It might be another 1,000 years to see anything else like it. Astronomers studying a dead star on the edge of the Milky Way may have found evidence of a type of thermonuclear explosion that’s never been seen before — and which may never be seen again. Dubbed a “hyperburst,” this gargantuan explosion appears to…

Basics of Building an Interstellar Light Sail

Posted on February 18, 2022 by Agitator!!

For centuries, people have dreamed of being driven at speed across the vast oceans of space by winds of light. Making a sail that can withstand the hazards that threaten spacecraft on such a long journey is going to require some clever solutions; maybe the kind of solutions proposed in two studies published recently in…

America Races to Avert the ‘Quantum Apocalypse’

Posted on February 11, 2022 by Agitator!!

The U.S. is racing to research cryptography designed to safeguard against future quantum computer attacks. Quantum computing uses the properties of quantum mechanics to perform computations far more complex than what modern supercomputers can achieve. While quantum computers may have the ability to solve a multitude of problems, including cracking encryption in a fraction of…

This Flying Car Is Now Officially Approved to Take to the Skies

Posted on February 10, 2022 by Agitator!!

Next stop…the Jetsons! We’ve been promised flying cars for decades now, yet our four-wheeled vehicles are still stuck in the ground. But a Slovakian company is hoping to change all of that very soon. Klein Vision’s “AirCar” was recently issued a Certificate of Airworthiness by the Slovak Transport Authority—meaning it has the official OK to…

New lightweight material is stronger than steel

Posted on February 8, 2022 by Agitator!!

MIT chemical engineers have created a new material that is stronger than steel and as light as plastic, and…can be easily manufactured in large quantities. The new material is a two-dimensional polymer that self-assembles into sheets, unlike all other polymers, which form one-dimensional, spaghetti-like chains. Until now, scientists had believed it was impossible to induce…

Earth’s Insides Are Cooling Faster Than We Thought…

Posted on February 4, 2022 by Agitator!!

…and it could mess things up. Because Earth’s interior is still cooling, and will continue to do so, this means that eventually the interior will solidify, and the geological activity will cease, possibly turning Earth into a barren rock, akin to Mars or Mercury. New research has revealed that may happen sooner than previously thought….
