Scientists May Have Just Found Evidence For Previous Universes That Existed Before Our Own

Key Takeaways: ________ Evidence of black hole remnants from previous universes may be hiding in the cosmic microwave background. Recent research suggests that black holes from a prior universe might have left detectable imprints in our own universe’s cosmic microwave background (CMB). This concept is rooted in a fascinating theory called “conformal cyclic cosmology” (CCC), […]

Emergency Vaccines Reduce Disease Outbreak Deaths by Almost 60%

Emergency vaccination during outbreaks of diseases like cholera, Ebola and measles have over the past quarter-century reduced deaths from such illnesses by nearly 60 percent, according to a new study. A similar number of infections are also believed to have been prevented, while billions of euros have been generated in estimated economic benefit. The Gavi vaccine alliance,

Study Reveals Tunguska Explosion Caused by Asteroid Skimming Earth’s Atmosphere

The Tunguska asteroid was likely as wide as a football stadium—656 feet (200 meters). Key Takeaways The Tunguska Mystery: New Insights On June 30, 1908, a massive explosion devastated over 800 square miles of Siberian forest near the Tunguska River. The blast, which leveled millions of trees, left no crater or visible remnants, baffling scientists

Interstellar Travel Is Possible If We Break Into a Higher Dimension, Scientists Say

And luckily for us, quantum physicists think they know how to reach that higher dimension. Key Takeaways: ___________ Interstellar travel could become a reality, but only if we can harness higher dimensions beyond our three-dimensional experience, scientists suggest. Recent theories propose that wormholes—spacetime shortcuts—might allow humans to traverse vast cosmic distances, connecting different parts of

For the First time, Scientists Make Light Travel Forward and Backward in Time Simultaneously

Reversing Time with Light Physicists at the City University of New York have achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of wave physics by demonstrating “time reflections” with light. In a process long considered purely theoretical, researchers managed to make light waves travel backward in time using metamaterials—special materials with tunable optical properties. Led by

The Thermal Nuclear Engine That Could Get Us to Mars in Just 3 Months

As it’s so close to Earth, Mars is the planet that humans will most likely step foot on and explore first. Ultra Safe Nuclear Corporation (USNC) has introduced a groundbreaking thermal nuclear engine design that could drastically shorten the time it takes for astronauts to travel to Mars. This innovative engine could carry a crew

Light from behind a Black Hole Observed for the First Time, Confirming Einstein’s Theory

All our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike – and yet it is the most precious thing we have. – Albert Einstein (1879-1955) TL;DR Astronomers have observed light bending around a black hole, a phenomenon predicted by Einstein’s theory of general relativity. By studying X-rays from a black hole in the Zwicky 1

Scientists estimate that there are at least 36 intelligent alien civilizations in the Milky Way

New Estimate Suggests Only 36 Active Extraterrestrial Civilizations May Exist in Our Galaxy TL;DR New research suggests there could be as few as 36 active extraterrestrial civilizations in the Milky Way galaxy. Based on the idea that intelligent life evolves over 5 billion years, scientists from the University of Nottingham estimate that the nearest alien

Gut Bacteria Found to Soak Up Toxic Forever Chemicals

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have the nickname ‘forever chemicals’ thanks to their persistence in the environment. While a handful of bacteria are known to mop up these insidious compounds, it’s unclear whether any of our own microflora hide such a talent. A new study by an international team of researchers has shown how several species of

First Visual Evidence Confirms A Star Exploded Twice

All supernovae are massively energetic stellar explosions. The classic supernovae are massive stars that explode near the end of their lives, leaving behind either a neutron star or a black hole, and a remnant made of expanding gas and dust. But supernovae are not all the same. Some occur in binary systems, and they’re called Type 1a supernovae.
