New Evidence for Liquid Water on Europa. New Evidence for Liquid Water on Europa Nov. 16, 2011: In a potentially significant finding in the search for life beyond Earth, scientists studying data from NASA's Galileo probe have discovered what appears to be a body of liquid water the volume of the North American Great Lakes locked inside the icy shell of Jupiter’s moon Europa.

New Evidence for Liquid Water on Europa

The water could represent a potential habitat for life, and many more such lakes might exist throughout the shallow regions of Europa’s shell, say researchers writing in the journal Nature. "The data opens up some compelling possibilities," said Mary Voytek, director of NASA's Astrobiology Program at agency headquarters in Washington. Measuring Billions of Elusive Neutrinos Flowing Through the Earth. Using one of the most sensitive neutrino detectors on the planet, an international team including physicists Laura Cadonati and Andrea Pocar at the University of Massachusetts Amherst are now measuring the flow of solar neutrinos reaching earth more precisely than ever before.

Measuring Billions of Elusive Neutrinos Flowing Through the Earth

The detector probes matter at the most fundamental level and provides a powerful tool for directly observing the sun's composition. Pocar, Cadonati and colleagues report in the current issue of Physical Review Letters that the Borexino instrument has now measured with high precision the flux of the beryllium seven (7Be) solar neutrino, abundant, low-energy particles once below the observable threshold. With this advance, they can now precisely study the behavior of solar neutrinos with kinetic energy below 1 megaelectron volt (MeV).

Terrals Dwarf Star Research on Paltalk. NOAA / Space Weather Prediction Center. The Craters Are Electric. The Craters Are Electric 12/07/2007 By Michael Goodspeed Suspension of disbelief is a well known mental process whereby a person engaged by a fictional story temporarily surrenders his rational logic.

The Craters Are Electric

This intensifies a story's emotional impact, particularly when it is too implausible for the intellect to accept. For those engaged in scientific investigation, a similar mental exercise is required in order for one to interpret evidence objectively. Rather than suspend one's logical discernment, one must lay aside all assumptions and biases that might distort or limit one's field of vision.

A Curiosity of Spirit (FULL DOCUMENT) « AstroEngineer's Blog

Preface I am publishing this story somewhat hastily in response to the hue and cry on the Above Top Secret forums. Apologies in advance for those areas that I would have improved or omitted entirely had I spent more time thinking about what others wanted to hear and less time thinking about what I wanted to say. I attempted, where it occurred to me, to explain the terms and workings of the things I mention, but I may have forgotten to explain some items which could cause confusion and/or Google searches. I will attempt to update this document in the coming weeks as I have time, to improve the clarity and eliminate elements which may unnecessary or uninteresting to others. This began and remains a personal journey, an attempt to reconcile and understand my own history and work. For those who want a synopsis, I’ll try to post one in a few days.

(PhysOrg.com) -- Apostolos Christou and David Asher from the Armagh Observatory in Northern Ireland announced the discovery of an asteroid near Earth called Asteroid 2010 SO16 and their findings were published on arXiv.org.

New horseshoe orbit Earth-companion asteroid discovered

While finding near-Earth asteroids is not unusual, there is something quite rare about this particular asteroid in that it orbits the sun in what is referred to as a horseshoe orbit. A horseshoe orbit gets its name because when viewed from Earth’s point of view, the asteroid appears to travel in a shape of a horseshoe. However, from the perspective of the asteroid, it is in a continual orbit around the sun.

To better understand this horseshoe orbit it must be understood that objects closer to the sun will orbit at a faster rate than objects of a further distance. ‪Thunderbolts Of The Gods‬‏ ‪The Electric Universe‬‏ The Electric Universe.

Is the Sun Part of a Binary Star System? - Six Reasons to Consider. © Binary Research Institute Just what is the real cause behind the precession of the equinoxes and why did the ancients believe this cycle was so important?

Once in a while an asteroid comes along that changes things. On January 6, 2010 the Lincoln Near Earth Asteroid Research team discovered a main-belt asteroid that was experiencing an outburst making it look like a comet. Comets aren't normally found in the asteroid belt and early indications suggested that this was an asteroid that had suffered a collision, which produced it's comet-like outburst and tail. Halton Arp's discoveries about redshift. What Is Redshift? If the lines in the spectrum of the light from a star or galaxy appear at a lower frequency (shifted toward the red) than where they are observed in the spectrum of the Sun, we say this object exhibits 'positive redshift'. The accepted explanation for this effect is that the object must be moving away from us.

Megalightning at Saturn. As NASA’s Cassini spacecraft approached Saturn last July it found evidence that lightning on Saturn is roughly one million times stronger than lightning on Earth. “That’s just astonishing to me!” Said University of Iowa Space Physicist Don Gurnett, who notes that some radio signals have been linked to storm systems observed by the Cassini imaging instrument. Also, variations in Saturn’s radio rotation rate came as a surprise. Interactive 3D model of Solar System Planets and Night Sky. NASA New tool for for space enthusiasts.
