A black hole has just now belched out the letter "H," which has astronomers and people all around the world incredibly excited. A bright pink "H" is etched into the scaldingly hot plasma that orbits a supermassive black hole that sits at the center of a very large galaxy. This hole is in the very center of the galaxy. Incredible as it may seem, the height of the structure is 40,000 light years, which is equivalent to more than half the diameter of our galaxy, the Milky Way. The letter "H" was seen in an X-ray snapshot of the gas that surrounds the black hole in the irregular galaxy Messier 84 (M84), which is located around 60 million light-years distant from Earth in the constellation Virgo. This shows the letter "H" produced in hot plasma by black hole jets. The research ...

As part of its investigation into the interior of the globe, China has begun excavating a hole in the surface of the Earth that will eventually reach a depth of 10 kilometers. Beijing's goals of exploring new frontiers are moving forward at a rapid speed as the city launches a mission to track both the inner and the outer limits of the globe in space. The ten thousand-meter deep borewells is now being dug in the Tarim Basin, which is located in the Xinjiang region, which is located in northwest China and has been in the news for keeping Uyghur Muslims. The crew will dig very far into the Earth, penetrating more than ten different continental strata. This will provide them with information that may be used to recreate the history of the Earth's continents, including the developmen...

On Wednesday, the first public meeting of a NASA panel investigating what the government refers to as "unidentified aerial phenomena," more generally known as UFOs, began in order to review the findings that have been accumulated since the group's inception a year ago. The sixteen-member organization was established in June of last year with the purpose of investigating unclassified UFO sightings, which it refers to as UAP sightings, as well as other data acquired from both government and commercial sectors. Its members include specialists in subjects that range from physics to astrobiology. June 2022 saw NASA's UFO panel During the opening comments, David Spergel, who serves as the panel chair, stated that "if I were to summarize in one line what I feel we've learned, it's t...

Earth is approaching tipping points after passing seven of eight scientifically recognized safety limits. A multinational committee of top environmental and social experts, the Earth Commission, warned that people are risking civilization and all life on Earth. Humanity is well into the Anthropocene, the projected new geological era when human forces have set the Earth system on a trajectory heading fast away from the stable system, according to a Nature article. Climate, air pollution, phosphorus and nitrogen contamination of water from fertilizer misuse, groundwater resources, fresh surface water, the unbuilt natural environment, and the natural and human-built environment were examined. Only air pollution wasn’t dangerous internationally. "Overwhelming data demonstrates...

Professor Abhijit Chakraborty of the Physical Research Laboratory (PRL), Ahmedabad, led an international team that located the densest alien planet, 13 times bigger than Jupiter. This exoplanet is PRL's third from India. The discovery was detailed in Astronomy & Astrophysics Letters. The crew utilized the Gurushikhar Observatory's PRL Advanced Radial-velocity Abu-sky Search spectrograph (PARAS) to precisely establish the planet's mass. Exoplanets weigh 14 g/cm3. NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) first identified the star as a possible host for an undiscovered secondary body. The new planet orbits TOI4603 or HD 245134. The object has been renamed TOI 4603b and HD 245134b after becoming a planet. 731 light years from Earth, the planet orbits its star da...

The Indian Space Research Organization (Isro) is getting ready to launch Chandrayaan-3 in 2023, which would be the most important mission of that year. From Sriharikota, the Geosynchronous Launch Vehicle (GSLV-MkIII) will carry the spacecraft into orbit as it launches into space. After launching from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, the spacecraft would enter an elliptical orbit around the Moon and then make an attempt to soft-land on its surface. "Chandrayaan-3 consists of an indigenous Lander module (LM), Propulsion module (PM), and a Rover with the objective of developing and demonstrating new technologies required for interplanetary missions," Isro added. With Chandrayaan-3, ISRO is launching a lander and rover combination "The Chandrayaan-3 mission aims...
