Water vapor detected on Mars can help answer whether the Red Planet was once habitable
An international team of researchers has detected water vapor rising from Mars, offering new clues as to whether the Red Planet was once home to aliens. The researchers made the discovery using an instrument called the Nadir and Occultation for Mars Discovery (NOMAD), which is aboard the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter jointly operated by the European Space […]

TOXIC products: Humans are the greatest pollutants of office air, reveals surprising study
Researchers from Purdue University found that humans are the most significant pollutants of indoor air. In a study presented at the American Association for Aerosol Research Conference in Oregon, the researchers revealed that humans are the dominant sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in an office environment. VOCs are a large group of chemicals that strongly influence the […]

Diamonds need small electric fields to crystallize, according to study
A new study published in the journal Science Advances shows that high heat and pressures are not enough to produce diamonds – these majestic crystals may also need small electric fields to crystallize. As part of their study, German and Russian researchers mimicked conditions in the mantle, the layer beneath Earth’s crust where most diamonds are thought to form. By doing […]

Earth’s magnetic field supplies water to the moon, according to study
A new study published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters shows that Earth’s magnetic field may have helped bring water to the moon. An international team of researchers found that a stream of particles called the “Earth wind” bombard the moon whenever the latter crosses the magnetosphere – the region of space surrounding Earth where the dominant magnetic field is the […]

Rocket booster mistaken for an asteroid shows ‘Oumuamua is not just a space rock, astronomer says
Harvard University astronomer Abraham Loeb has reiterated that the mysterious space object known as ‘Oumuamua is alien technology. In the past, Loeb has racked up a collection of compelling evidence to back up his claim, including ‘Oumuamua’s unusual shape and extreme brightness. Now, he has found fresh proof that perfectly illustrates why ‘Oumuamua is not just a […]

Ancient art: Scientists discover 143 new Nazca line drawings previously hidden in Peru
Japanese archaeologists have discovered 143 new Nazca line drawings in Peru, including one found using artificial intelligence (AI). The land drawings depict humans, humanoids, animals and other beings and are believed to date back to at least A.D. 100 to B.C. 300. The researchers spent years studying Pampa de Nazca, a 200-square-mile desert plain near the foothills of the […]

Fascinating flyers: Scientists reveal how butterflies escape predators
For their size, butterflies have a big pair of wings. They fly with wings that can weigh them down and allow predators to catch up on them. But as it turns out, butterflies have a unique takeoff style that makes them quicker. In a study published in the Journal of the Royal Surface Interface, researchers from Lund University in Sweden found […]

Astronomers detect mysterious radio signal coming from neighboring star
Scientists from the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) are investigating a mysterious radio signal emanating from the direction of Proxima Centauri, the nearest star to the solar system. Researchers working on Breakthrough Listen, a project devoted to the search for alien civilizations, detected the signal in April or May this year using the Parkes radio telescope in […]

Scientists produce methane-based rocket fuel using resources found on Mars
Scientists at the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) have figured out how to produce rocket fuel using only portable materials and resources that can be sourced from Mars. The scientists developed a one-step process that requires only zinc, a mineral found on the red planet, and a small easy-to-carry device to catalyze carbon dioxide and produce methane-based fuel. This method […]

Asteroid Bennu migrated to Earth’s neighborhood only very recently, study finds
Scientists have found that Bennu, a near-Earth asteroid discovered in the late ’90s, hasn’t always been within the Earth’s vicinity. In fact, a study published in Nature said that the asteroid, despite having been formed millions of years ago, just wandered into the neighborhood recently. This was evidenced by the appearance of small impact marks […]
