Explosive robots that can be sent to asteroids
For a long time you've worry about a possible collision of an asteroid with our planet. Even one at a few hundred of meters can produce serious damage on entire globe. Supposing we are taking in consideration that the asteroids can be larger than that, the situation becomes really serious if it ...

Asteroid approaching
NASA with a researching team from a Hawaii's University, needs a spacecraft to redirect an asteroid that's come to Earth. The tractor, which cost about 200-300 millions dollars, will be attached to this asteroid for changing its speed, resulting in an deviation from current orbit avoiding a colli ...

On Mars exist clouds that warm the planet
Has been detect existence of clouds in the Red Planet atmosphere, that retains warm on nighttime, when the Sun is missing. Those are 5 times thicker in the night and at a lower level, closer to surface than in daylight when they can be found sometimes at 100 kilometers, being the most highest zon ...

High energy systems in gas cocoons
Have been discover new objects in our galaxy. Between them is the neutron star covered by a cold cocoon gas. Because their large quantity of X-Rays absorption by cocoon, those stars couldn't be discover until the 5 of this month, using the European "International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory ...

The biggest telescope lens
The mirror is built from many polished and assembled pieces. Made from 7 beryllium segments, as dimension is 7 times larger than Hubble's mirror, and has 25 a square meters area. This way of building a mirror so large, has been approach because if being built on Earth, it doesn't fit into a sp ...
