Ice Age Killer
Impact crater found in Greenland | Is this the last Ice Age killer?

Scientists have been wondering what caused the end of the last Ice Age. There are at least a couple of peered-reviewed theories that have shed light into the end of the last Ice Age. These scientists had postulated that it was a collision caused by the impact of a large asteroid that brough the last Ice Age to its end. However, an impact crater had not been found until now…..

Everyone seems obsessed with Mars and how to get us there these days. How would Mars look if it had clouds? Well, recently the Hubble Space Telescope team released a photograph of Mars with clouds. The image showed Mars in a more Earthly fashion than we have seen it before.
The following is an animation of the red planet, Mars, with Earth-like clouds in its atmosphere. The global mapping was taken from Viking’s imagery and the clouds were adjusted from an image of Earth’s clouds by NASA.

This is how we started with our blog.
Ever since I experienced a major solar eclipse in Mexico during my childhood, my interest in astronomy grew. Later in the decade, when I heard the statements of a world renowned astronomer about changes in our solar system, I was to say the least astonished! Unfortunately, his radio interview was not broadcasted on the mainstream media and it is a shame not many had the chance of paying attention. Sadly, most astronomers did not talk about it despite the fact that each one of his predictions have been confirmed and discoveries [which he had predicted] have been announced in the last decade.
Later on, I was never able to track the interview to its original source and copies of it have not been found on the web or anywhere else. So I cannot verify the identity of the astronomer.
But I have to say people at least need to be paying attention to the stars. Look up at the sky and stand in awe. Space is full of surprises.
This is an interesting educational video for several reasons.
I will let you come to your own conclusions.
