In the Bears’ 29-27 comeback victory Friday night against the Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes showed the opposing defense just …

IN A NUTSHELL 🏔️ Beneath Antarctica’s ice, the ancient Transantarctic Mountains stretch over 2,175 miles, influencing ice flow and thickness. 🔬 Researchers use thermochronology to study tectonic movements and glaciation cycles, revealing Earth’s dynamic past. 🌡️ Discoveries, including fossilized trees, offer insights into past climates and help predict future climate changes. 🗺️ The hidden mountains act as a natural divide, …

Look up at the next full Moon and consider how far away it is. It looks pretty big and nearby, doesn’t it? Now consider this: you could fit every planet in the Solar System between Earth and the Moon. Credit: NASA, ESA, STScI, Amy Simon (NASA-GSFC) That even includes Jupiter and Saturn. The Moon is so far from Earth that …

If you have ever wondered what paradise really looks like, consider that it is not merely a place; it’s a state of mind, a feeling, an understanding that all is right with the world, and that the good vibes of peaceful serenity are freely flowing like a river into the sea or gentle waves lapping at the shore as tiny …

As carbon dioxide levels in Earth’s upper atmosphere continue to increase, there are growing concerns about how this shift will affect the behavior of geomagnetic storms and their impact on Earth’s technological infrastructure. A new study led by scientists at the U.S. National Science Foundation’s National Center for Atmospheric Research (NSF NCAR) explores these changes in atmospheric dynamics and their …

A new study suggests that the planets in our solar system may be helping to keep the sun calmer than other sun-like stars, potentially lowering the risk of powerful solar storms that could disrupt modern technology on Earth. The research, led by scientists at the German research laboratory Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR), proposes that the sun’s flares, magnetic storms and bursts …

A prominent Harvard astrophysicist has claimed that a mysterious object moving through our solar system could be a nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Professor Avi Loeb, director of the Galileo Project, which hunts for signs of extraterrestrial intelligence, said the interstellar object known as 3I/ATLAS exhibits characteristics suggesting it is not a typical comet, contrary to NASA’s assessment.  One of those signs is …
