    Space X Starship 9 Explodes During Test Flight

    Starship 9 Explosion | Space X Flight Test

    Spaceship Starship 9 of the Space X company exploded today during a test flight at the company’s space port in Boca Chica, Texas near the border with Mexico.

    The Space X team was carrying out a test climb to 10 km and testing telemetry during the spaceship’s flight.

    Moments before the landing, one of the engines did not fire and the controlled fall failed to stop Satrship 9 from crashing at the landind platform.

    Ice Age Killer Asteroid Impact Found

    Scientists have been wondering what caused the end of the last Ice Age.


    Impact crater found in Greenland. Is this the last Ice Age killer? Video and still: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/Jefferson Beck

    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…..

  • Will a Mars Direct approach put man on Mars?

    Will a Mars Direct approach put man on Mars?

    Mars Direct | Cheapest way to get to Mars?

    NASA recently confirmed the presence of liquid flowing water on Mars. With this anticipated confirmation, the vision of humans landing on the red planet, Mars, is being revived. Space scientists have finally confirmed what they had long suspected for at least a 100 years. Will a Mars Direct, or a modified similar approach, put man on Mars at last?

    The dream of Mars Society president, Dr. Robert Zubrin, may come true after all. It was Zubrin along with his team who developed the most feasible and cheapest aerospace approach to get to Mars.

    Here’s the story of it all.

    This is Rediscovered Astronomy footage of the Supermoon Eclipse last weekend. It was filmed from a location deep in United States southwest desert.


    The recording was mostly improvised, but we managed to make the best use of a simple Samsung camera to film the Supermoon eclipse.

  • Alarming, Ice Shelf Melting

    Alarming, Ice Shelf Melting

    Larsen B Ice Shelf Is Melting – NASA

    Ala Khazendar, science research JPL, has presented a study that affirms the remainder of Larsen B Ice Shelf in Antarctica will met in the next few years. If that happens, glaciers would freely float on the ocean, says Khazendar. In 2002, grand part of Larsen B collapsed and broke off from Antarctica in less than six weeks.

    Khazendar and his colleague, Eric Rignot, think that two of the three glaciers that are located at the Antarctica Peninsula are in danger of sliding into the sea. The glaciers supporting the Larsen B are named Leppard, Flask, and Starbuck. Starbuck’s for the most part stable, but the other two, Leppard and Flask have accelerated their movement and have decreased in size due to warming weather. Sea levels may increase if the glaciers fall into the ocean.

    The study, The Evolving Instability Of the Remnant Larsen B Ice Shelf And Its Tributary Glaciers, was a collaboration between the US and Norway; authors: Ala Khazendar, Christopher P. Borstad, Bernd Scheuchl, Eric Rignot, and Helene Seroussi.

    Earth Rotation Animation

    Earth rotation animation was created by J.J. Del Mar for Rediscovered Astronomy. Enjoy this awesome CGI display of Earth’s rotation. We will be posting animations for all the planets in our solar system.

    Earth Rotation Animation by J.J. Del Mar | Rediscovered Astronomy May 2015

    Instead of using other animator’s method, I researched and studied to create my own method which has greatly improved the result. I will use my own method with enhanced textures to create more realistic animations. Rediscovered Astronomy will publish these animations of the Solar System in 2016.

    You can find the animations of all the planets in our solar systems right here on our website.
