Neutron stars are some of the most extreme objects in the universe. Formed from the collapsed cores of supergiant stars, they weigh more than our Sun and yet are compressed into a sphere the size of a city. The dense cores of these exotic stars contain matter squashed... by admin | Apr 7, 2024 | cosmic, Nasa, Neutron star, News, space, Space News, speed trap, stars, The Conversation
How fast can a neutron star drive powerful jets into space? The answer, it turns out, is about one-third the speed of light, as our team has just revealed in a new study published in Nature. Energetic cosmic beams known as jets are seen throughout our universe. They... by admin | Dec 22, 2023 | Black holes, Nasa, News, space, Space News, stars, The Conversation
Black holes are dense astronomical objects with gravity so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. Anything that crosses the boundary of a black hole’s gravitational influence, called the event horizon, will fall into the black hole. Inside this deep, dense... by admin | Jul 16, 2023 | Nasa, News, Planets, Radio waves, space, Space News, stars, The Conversation
We have identified the coldest star ever found to produce radio waves – a brown dwarf too small to be a regular star and too massive to be a planet. Our findings, published today in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, detail the detection of pulsed radio emission from... by admin | Jun 18, 2023 | Betelguese, News, space, Space News, stars, The Conversation
The bright, red star Betelgeuse in the constellation Orion has shown some unexpected behaviour. In late 2019 and 2020 it became fainter than we had ever seen it – at least in records going back more than a century. Briefly it became fainter (just about) than... by admin | Jun 16, 2023 | App News, facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, Meta, News, Reels, stars
Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta isn’t the be-all-or-end-all content platform it hoped it would be by now. Creators are flying this way and that between YouTube, Twitch, and even TikTok and the few that decide to give Meta, or more specifically, Facebook, a chance rarely ever...
