Five Mind Boggling Theories About The Universe And Parallel Worlds

1. Is the universe a 2D hologram? The US Department of Energy (USDE) launched an experiment to find this out earlier this year using its "Holometer". Researchers said that characters on a T…

'Stellar Fireworks' Of Two Stars Colliding 500 Years Ago Captured In Stunning Images

A new picture shows the "stellar fireworks" of a collision of stars: with beautiful suns flung off in all directions and streaming colors of gas. Astronomers have captured images of a crash…

Brian Greene: Making Sense of String Theory & the Hidden Universe

Anyone who loves physics knows about String Theory. If, by some miraculous chance, you've never heard of it before…well, prepare to be introduced to one of the most interesting and highly contest…

Gravity's River - New Research on Black Hole Points to Gravity as a Fluid

The acknowledged understanding between gravitational researchers has been that space-time cannot turn into turbulent. New study from Perimeter, however, illustrates that the acknowledged understandin…

A star disturbed the comets of the solar system in prehistory

About 70,000 years ago, a small reddish star approached our solar system and gravitationally disturbed comets and asteroids. Astronomers from the Complutense University of Madrid and the University o…

TRAPPIST-1 planets provide clues to the nature of habitable worlds

TRAPPIST-1 is an ultra-cool red dwarf star that is slightly larger, but much more massive, than the planet Jupiter, located about 40 light-years from the Sun in the constellation Aquarius. All seven …

Physicists Discover ‘Clearest Evidence Yet’ That the Universe Is a Hologram

A group of physicists have delivered what has been defined by the journal Nature as the “ clearest evidence yet ” that our universe nothing but just a hologram. The new study could help settle one of…

Why Is the Solar System Flat?

As soon as our solar system was made from a spinning cloud of dust and gas, it came about to form in such a way that all planets assemble on a single plane. But through all of 3D space to select from…

Cosmologists create largest simulation of galaxy formation, break their own record

Humans have long tried to explain how stars came to light up the night sky. The wide array of theories throughout history have one common (and correct) governing principle that astrophysicists still …

Mars' oceans formed early, possibly aided by massive volcanic eruptions

A new scenario seeking to explain how Mars' putative oceans came and went over the last 4 billion years implies that the oceans formed several hundred million years earlier and were not as deep a…

'Oumuamua likely came from a binary star system

New research finds that 'Oumuamua, the rocky object identified as the first confirmed interstellar asteroid, very likely came from a binary star system. Artist’s impression of ‘Oumuamua [Credit: …

Is THIS What Came Before The Big Bang? Scientists Say They Have The Answer To Life's Start

‘ WHAT came before the Big Bang? ’ is a question that has plagued scientists for millennia, but experts may have the answer. Several solutions have been offered up to the age old conundrum, including…

Black Holes DO Have Event Horizons Which Devour EVERYTHING Around Them, Scientists Researched

SCIENTISTS have managed to prove that event horizons of a black hole are real and that matter disappears when it crosses such a point. Once matter crosses the event horizon of a black hole it is unab…

Researchers Created The World's Largest Simulation of the Universe

A group of researchers have built the world's largest simulation of the universe , containing around 25 billion virtual galaxies. The simulation could help in the search for mysterious dark matte…

Scientists Discovered The Last Lake On Mars, Which Might Be Preserving Ancient Life

A group of three scientists says they have found the best place to look for indication of ancient life on the Red Planet — one of the youngest lake- bearing basins ever revealed.   However Mars has…

How the Universe Works: Stephen Hawking’s Theory of Everything, Explained in 150 Seconds

Famous theoretical physicist and cosmologist Stephen Hawking, without any doubt, is one of the greatest scientific minds in human history. In this fascinating animation for The Guardian’s MadeSimple …

Scientists detect radio echoes of a black hole feeding on a star

On Nov. 11, 2014, a global network of telescopes picked up signals from 300 million light years away that were created by a tidal disruption flare — an explosion of electromagnetic energy that occurs…

This New Study Suggests Time Did Actually Exist Before The Big Bang

Taking Einstein's famous equations at face value and making as few assumptions as possible, a team of researchers has rewound the clock on our Universe to find it wouldn't lead to a stopping …
