Former NASA engineer claims alien spaceships are hiding in Saturn’s rings
Norman Bergrun, a former engineer at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), has claimed that giant alien UFOs have spread all over Saturn’s rings. These “living alien UFO spaceships” are self-reproducing, siphoning energy from the rings as well as using them as a hiding spot. What’s more, their number has been increasing rapidly, such that, according to Bergrun, […]

Astronomers capture rare “spaghettification” of star as it gets eaten and torn to shreds by a supermassive black hole
An international team of astronomers has recorded a star’s death as it got devoured by a supermassive black hole 215 million light-years away from Earth. The star, which was estimated to be the size of the sun, was deformed into an elongated flare of light as it gradually got sucked into the event horizon, the boundary marking the limits […]

Study debunks claim galaxy is made of 98% dark matter
Researchers from the University of Groningen in the Netherlands and the University of La Laguna in Spain suggest that Dragonfly 44 may just be a dwarf galaxy instead of a mysterious galaxy comprised mostly of dark matter. In a study published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, the researchers noted that Dragonfly 44 has a much lower total mass than […]

Study: Massive protostars may be “chemical factories” for essential ingredients to life
A recent study published in the Astrophysical Journal has found large quantities of prebiotic molecules around massive protostars. Using an airborne telescope, the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA), an international team of researchers detected chemical fingerprints suggesting the presence of these molecules, which are considered essential ingredients to life. “It turns out that these stars are like chemical factories churning […]

Cold temperature lipid created by the body may lower blood sugar, report scientists
A recent study published in the journal Cell Metabolism found that 12-HEPE, a lipid produced by the body in response to cold temperatures, may help reduce blood sugar levels. Researchers from Brazil, the U.S. and Germany conducted a series of experiments on mice and humans and found that it could help shuttle glucose into tissues and improve glucose tolerance […]

Astronomers unveil first direct image of young exoplanet just 63 light-years away
An international team of researchers has recently obtained the first direct image of the exoplanet Beta Pictoris c (B Pic c), confirming its existence since its indirect discovery in 2019. The “baby” exoplanet, which is estimated to be around 18 million years old, is the second planet known to orbit the star Beta Pictoris. The star […]

Archaeologists discover brain cells preserved in glassy skull from the Mt. Vesuvius eruption 2,000 years ago
Researchers from Italy have found what appears to be intact brain cells that belonged to a man scorched alive by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. The cells were preserved within the man’s blackened skull, vitrified, or turned into a glass-like substance, after being exposed to extreme heat and cooling rapidly, reported the researchers in the journal PLOS […]

Skulls from a cave in Spain suggest Stone Age people may have performed brain surgery, practiced human sacrifice
A pair of Stone Age skulls unearthed in the Dehesilla Cave in Spain shows signs of a halted brain surgery and possible human sacrifice, according to a study published in the journal PLOS ONE. An international team of researchers said that the skulls, which date back to 4,800 to 4,500 B.C., may have belonged to a man and a […]

Archaeologists unearth Medieval poop that might hint at what a healthy gut microbiome looks like
Medieval fecal samples from Israel and Latvia could provide crucial insights into how gut diseases developed, suggests a recent study published in the journal Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B. The samples were recovered from two latrines located in the capital cities of Jerusalem and Riga, which date back to between the 14th and 15th centuries. […]

Crystal gems found in extreme igneous rocks could form within hours, study suggests
Researchers from Rice University in Texas and the University of California, Riverside have found that gems can grow within hours inside extreme igneous rocks called pegmatites, instead of the thousands of years they usually take to form. In a study published in the journal Nature, the researchers described how they examined sample crystals from a pegmatite mine in Southern California. Using […]
