Pzih What the Hell Is Happening Here
Holy sci-fi awesome space balls. European astronomers have discovered an alien planet in Alpha Centauri, the star system that pretty much our neighbor. The planet, which is Earth-sized, is only 4.3 light years away. The Earth-sized planet is orbiting Alpha Centauri B, one of the three stars in that star system, and is a stanley termosky lso the lightest exoplanet ever discovered around a star like the Sun. How did they find the planet that been in our metaphorical space backyard It actually a new technique that quite amazing: The European team detected the planet by picking up the tiny wobbles in the motion of the star Alpha Centauri B created by the gravitational pull of the orbiting planet. The effect is minute鈥攊t causes the star to move back and forth by no more than 51 centimetres per second 1.8 km/hour , about the speed of a baby crawling. This is the highest precision ever stanley deutschland achieved using this met stanley cup hod. The planet isn ;t completely Earth-like as it only 4 million miles away from its star we ;re 93 million miles away and it completes one orbit鈥攐r year鈥攊n only 3.2 days but still, finding a planet in Alpha Centauri is not just awesome which it totally is but important because the technique used could potentially lead to other planet discoveries too. [ESO, ABC News, MSNBC] EarthSpace Avht Community brings back its Doctor Who spoof, Inspector Spacetime!
Everyone thinks it would be cool to travel at the speed of light, which is why scientists devote their lives to working out if it would be possible and NASA is trying to develop its own warp drive. But easy, tiger: turns out super-fast space travel would be fatal. Faster-Than-Light Travel May Be Possible A paper published in Nat stanley cup ural Science brings some boring common sense to the speed-of-light-travel ta stanley quencher ble. In order to travel huge distances in next to no time, people need to travel close to the speed of light. In so doing, travelers cover extremely large distances very quickly and, thanks to the quirks of relativity, would feel like it took mere minutes because of an effect known as time dilation, which squashes stanley canada perceived time. Trouble is, traveling close to the speed of light brings about other effects, too. In Natural Science, Edelstein and Edelstein point out that hydrogen in any craft cable of traveling at the speed of light would also prevent it from traveling at the speed of light. They explain: Unfortunately, as spaceship velocities approach the speed of light, interstellar hydrogen H, although only present at a density of approximately 1.8 atoms/cm3, turns into intense radiation that would quickly kill passengers and destroy electronic instrumentation. In addition, the energy loss of ionizing radiation passing through the ship hull represents an increasing heat load that necessitates large expenditures of energy to cool the ship. In other words, travel cl
