Milky Way's Long-Lost Sibling Finally Found
Post Date: 2018-07-26 01:47:39 by Tatarewicz
0 Comments
TEHRAN (FNA)- Scientists at the University of Michigan have deduced that the Andromeda galaxy, our closest large galactic neighbor, shredded and cannibalized a massive galaxy two billion years ago. Even though it was mostly shredded, this massive galaxy left behind a rich trail of evidence: an almost invisible halo of stars larger than the Andromeda galaxy itself, an elusive stream of stars and a separate enigmatic compact galaxy, M32. Discovering and studying this decimated galaxy will help astronomers understand how disk galaxies like the Milky Way evolve and survive large mergers. This disrupted galaxy, named M32p, was the third-largest member of the Local Group of galaxies, after ...

Psychology Itself Is Under Scrutiny

Many famous studies of human behavior cannot be reproduced. Even so, they revealed aspects of our inner lives that feel true. The urge to pull down statues extends well beyond the public squares of nations in turmoil. Lately it has been stirring the air in some corners of science, particularly psychology. In recent months, researchers and some journalists have strung cables around the necks of at least three monuments of the modern psychological canon: The famous Stanford Prison Experiment, which found that people playacting as guards quickly exhibited uncharacteristic cruelty. The landmark marshmallow test, which found that young children who could delay gratification showed ...

Watch as we open an Apollo artifact that has been sealed since 1973, just days after it returned from the Moon. During the Apollo 17 mission, astronauts Gene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt spent more time on the lunar surface than any previous mission. Gene Cernan, the last astronaut to walk on the Moon, brought a cover from his life support backpack home to Earth. NASA sealed the object and gave it to the Smithsonian, where it was kept in storage for 41 years. Staff brought it out to display it for the very first time as part of the new exhibition "Outside the Spacecraft: 50 Years of Extra-vehicular Activity." How much lunar dust is preserved on the object? Conservator Lisa Young ...

PressTV... Airbus, one of the world’s largest aircraft manufacturers, has put its record-breaking solar-powered drone into mass production. The pioneering aerospace company says it’s opening a production facility for its Zephyr aircraft in the English town of Farnborough. The facility would produce up to 30 aircraft a year. Zephyr holds the world’s record for the longest flight duration without refueling. It managed to stay afloat for over two weeks, and reached stratospheric altitudes, around 21 kilometers above earth’s surface. But Airbus wants to extend the aircraft’s range and keep it flying for over three months without recharging. The aircraft has a ...

PMF... From Japan to Sweden, and Oman to Texas, a global heat wave is setting records, igniting wildfires, and killing dozens all across the world this week. The south-central region is home to the highest temperatures in the U.S. this week, with nearly 35 million people living under excessive heat warnings issued by the National Weather Service. Temperatures are expected to be in the triple digits across Texas this weekend, marking the most severe heat wave in the state since 2011. The Texas heat has already led to record-breaking days for the Texas power grid twice this week. Things arent any better elsewhere in the region, with heat indexes in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana reaching ...

An Introduction to Protracted Desperation A question that never ceases to fascinate is that of how life originated, and how and why it has progressed as it seems to have. The official story and de rigueur explanation is that that life came about through spontaneous generation from seawater. Believing this is the mark of an Advanced Person, whether one has the slightest knowledge of the matter. In academia researchers have been fired and careers ruined for questioning it. If you doubt that scientists can be ideological herd animals, as petty, intolerant, vindictive, and backstabbing as professors, read Heretic, by the PhD biotechnologist and biochemist Matti Leisola, who fell on the wrong ...

TEHRAN (FNA)- Researchers have conducted one of the largest surveys of people's first memories, finding that nearly 40 per cent of people had a first memory which is fictional. Current research indicates that people's earliest memories date from around three to three-and-a-half years of age. However, the study from researchers at City, University of London, the University of Bradford and Nottingham Trent University found that 38.6 per cent of a survey of 6,641 people claimed to have memories from two or younger, with 893 people claiming memories from one or younger. This was particularly prevalent among middle-aged and older adults. To investigate people's first memories the ...

Solar Minimum has Arrived 03.06.06 Where have all the sunspots gone? Solar minimum has arrived. Every year in February, the students of Mrs. Phillips's 5th grade class in Bishop, California, celebrate Galileo's birthday (Feb. 15th) by repeating one of his discoveries. They prove that the sun spins. It's simple. Step 1: Look at the sun. Galileo did this using a primitive telescope; Mrs. Phillips's students use the internet. Step 2: Sketch the sunspots. Step 3: Repeat daily. After only a few days, it's obvious that the sunspots are moving and sun is spinning, performing one complete turn every 27 days. This procedure worked fine in 1610. But in 2006, "we had a ...

TEHRAN (FNA)- Tiny magnetic vortex structures, so-called skyrmions, have been researched intensively for some time for future energy-efficient space-saving data storage devices. Scientists have now discovered another class of particle-like magnetic object that could take the development of data storage devices a significant step forward. If skyrmions are used to encode the number ''1'', then the new objects could be used to encode the number ''0''. These objects, which are referred to as "chiral magnetic bobbers," are three-dimensional magnetic structures that appear near the surfaces of certain alloys. "For a long time, the unique object ...

Gravitational waves and the slow pace of scientific revolutions

ARS T... For years, people weren't sure if gravitational wave were a necessary product of relativity. LIGO's detection of gravitational waves came almost exactly a century after Einstein had formulated his general theory of relativity and an ensuing paper mathematically describing the possibility of gravitational waves. Or at least that's the story as it was presented to the public (including by yours truly). And in some ways, it's even true. But the reality of how relativity progressed to the point where people accepted that gravitational waves are likely to exist and could possibly be detected is considerably more complicated than the simple narrative described above. In ...
