The Mission of NASA's Kepler telescope, confirmed the first planet located in the "habitable zone" around a star like the Sun. Ο Kepler-452B είναι ο μικρότερος πλανήτης που ανακαλύφθηκε μέχρι σήμερα με τροχιά στην κατοικήσιμη ζώνη – την περιοχή γύρω από ένα άστρο όπου το νερό θα μπορούσε να συγκεντρωθεί πάνω στην επιφάνεια ενός πλανήτη σε τροχιά – ενός άστρου τύπου G2 όπως ο ήλιος μας.

The explosion of a star (Supernova) The great Flash from the explosion of a star occurs in this 3D animation, based on photometric observations made by NASA's Kepler space telescope. In animation we see a red supergiant star that is 500 times larger and 20.000 brighter than our Sun. When inside the star can no longer sustain the nuclear fusion, the core of collapsing by gravity. A blast from the collapsing rushes outward through the layers of the star. The blast initially breaks the visible surface of the star with a series of plasma explosions. Only 20 minutes later, the full power of wstikoy wave reaches the surface and the star collapses to a supernova explosion. By closely monitoring the star KSN 2011D located one,2 billion light years away, the Kepler telescope recorded the start of backfiring and the ensuing explosion.
The DART spacecraft crashes into asteroid to change its trajectory After 10 months of space travel, the DART probe hit its target by dropping more than 20.000 km/h in the asteroid Dimorphos located about 11 million kilometers from Earth. The purpose of the mission was to deflect the orbit of the asteroid in order to protect us from an asteroid heading towards our planet. The images were captured by the probe before impact with the approximately 160-meter-diameter asteroid. It will take a few weeks for scientists to confirm that the asteroid has indeed deviated from its orbit.
The landing of Perseverance Rover on Mars Amazing images that arrived on Earth on February 22, show video for the first time during a space mission to Mars. Cameras on the Perseverance Rover recorded for the first time a landing on the red planet from different angles, something for which until now we could only see photos.
Passing over the planet Jupiter The Juno is a NASA's unmanned spacecraft, for the exploration of Jupiter. The spacecraft was launched from Cape Canaveral, 5 August 2011, and entered into orbit around Jupiter on July 4, 2016. Recently, the spacecraft sent some spectacular images as it passed over the largest planet of our solar system.
The 9th planet Observations of the orbits of six small celestial bodies, have led researchers to assume the existence of a very large ninth planet, 100 astronomical units (TO) away from the Sun. Far enough so that the planet x as has been named, make 15.000 years to complete an orbit around the Sun.
The first vertical landing rocket after flight into space A few hours ago, the SpaceX company held a tour de force, for the first time landing a rocket (Falcon 9) After orbital flight (in orbit around the Earth). The main goal of the mission was to launch 11 small telecommunications satellites for Orbcomm.
A model of our solar system in actual scale A group of friends made the first model of the solar system with the correct scale, where the Sun is the size of a large ball and land it a Volos. On the charts, our solar system ever designed not to the correct scale, While the sizes and distances of the planets from the Sun are not commensurate. To achieve this model had an empty space 11 km length, where the team found in a desert in Nevada. In their model, the sun has a diameter of about 1,5 meter (1,39 million km in reality), Earth is just 176 meters from the sun (149 million km in reality) and the farther planet reaches 6 km (4.5 million kilometers actually).
If the Sun were other stars The Russian Federal Space Agency Roscosmos, released a very nice video that shows us how it would seem our horizon, If the Earth was from other stars in place of the Sun.
A detailed picture of the Andromeda Galaxy from the Hubble telescope On January 5, the NASA pulled with the Hubble space telescope the largest photo by Andromeda Galaxy. The photo contains over 100 million stars, not only is the best view of the Andromeda galaxy that have until now, but the larger picture that has ever taken with Hubble. Despite the fact that the galaxy is 2,5 million light years away, spans an area larger than the full moon we see in the sky, and to create such a detailed picture should be pulled 7,398 photos. The analysis of the final image was 1,5 million pixels (69.536 x 22.230) and had a size of 4,3 GigaBytes.
From that came the water of the Earth; We all know that the surface of our planet is mostly covered by water in liquid form, about 71%, and all the Earth's life depends on it. But out of that came the water on Earth;
That is flying over the planet Earth? A video in time-lapse of the ISS space station as it moves in orbit the satellite above the Earth.
The new vehicle of NASA on Mars In August 2012, the NASA will send the successor of the pathfinder on Mars, which will be called "Curiosity". The curiosity like the pathfinder, It will be an exploratory vehicle which will study in greater detail the red planet. Unlike the pathfinder, which was using solar energy, the curiosity will move with nuclear, While it is quite bigger in dimensions since it reaches the size of a small car. This is a brief representation of the Mission in 3D.
The solar eclipse from a Starlink satellite On April 8, 2024 an orbiting Starlink satellite filmed the solar eclipse, an impressive black hole on the surface of the Earth (the shadow of the Moon). Starlink is a constellation of thousands of satellites in low Earth orbit (between 300 and 600 km. altitude).
Understanding light years A NASA video that helps us understand the light year unit of distance measurement. The light year is used to measure distances between stars.
A hole suddenly opens in the bottom of a swimming pool On Thursday July 21, 2022 during a private party at a residence in Karmei Yosef, Israel, a hole suddenly formed in the bottom of a swimming pool and all the water was sucked up within minutes. A man in shock was taken to hospital after nearly being swept away. He is suffering from a concussion. Partygoers reported a 30-year-old man missing. Unfortunately, rescuers found his lifeless body after several hours of searching. According to geologists, the earth in this place is not friable and there is no geological reason for the collapse of the pool floor. An investigation is underway to determine the cause of this tragic accident.
