Scientists have found where the stars in the halo of the milky Way
Despite a century of research and observation, our knowledge of our own milky Way galaxy still contain a lot of gaps. To date, if you think about it, we more or less figured out its estimated diameter is of the order of 100-180 th...
Astronomers have found one of the oldest stars in the milky Way
Spanish astronomers announced the discovery of one of the oldest stars of our galaxy. Scientists believe that the object, dubbed J0815+4729, came to light only after 300 million years after the Big Bang, or about 13.5 billion year...
Near the center of the milky Way discovered a strange "thread"
Astronomers have been exploring the center of the milky Way, which is a supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* at the mass, surpassing our Sun in 4 million times. But thanks to technology, scientists have new tools for observation...
Einstein's theory has passed a major test
the Basic laws of physics, from the pen of Isaac Newton in the 17th century, do not work in all cases. One has only to apply them to very fast, almost the speed of light moving objects or things heavier stars, and then they give u...
We are half composed of matter other galaxies
the Findings of the latest research suggests that half (which is much greater than was supposed in earlier studies) of matter in the milky Way, including the atoms of which we are all made, may come from outside our galaxy. Such c...
11 scientific achievements of the last 100 years that gave us the Universe
Exactly 100 years ago, our concept of the Universe was very different from today's. People knew about the stars in the milky Way and knew the distances to them, but what no one knew. The universe believed static, spirals and ellip...
Dreams of galactic online: to be or not to be?
it would Seem that there in the toilet is sometimes difficult to achieve a sufficiently strong Wi-Fi signal, so what can we say about the scale of the cosmos – a whole different level! GALACTIC. Sorry for such a blatant example, b...
In our galaxy of 100 billion stars failed. And that's bad news
Astronomers estimate that the milky Way contains at least 100 billion brown dwarfs – stellar objects that were not able to turn into a full-fledged star. Research shows how much is actually distributed, this type of stars in our g...
How will the death of the milky Way?
we are on the Earth another billion or two years before the oceans boil and the planet will become uninhabitable. The sun will heat up, turn into a red giant, burn the fuel in the core, will inflate their outer layers and shrink i...
Our galaxy not only attract but also repel at a speed of 2 million km/h
Maybe we do not notice, but our planet revolves around the Sun faster than 100,000 kilometers per hour. Moreover, our entire Solar system is moving within the spiral arms of the milky Way at a speed of 850 thousand kilometers per ...
