If you think you’ve already witnessed the rise and fall of your peak self, researchers have news for you: As far as your intelligence is concerned, you likely have several new highs to look forward to. Some of them, like the ability to read others’ emotions or do basic arithmetic, don’t arrive until middle age or beyond.
The universe as we know it shouldn’t exist. Unlocking the reasons why may depend on once again striking gold in a mine buried a mile underground in rural South Dakota.
The Hubble Space Telescope has taken a close look at the fascinating gravitational effects caused by a diminutive dwarf galaxy as it orbits its massive neighbor. The galactic pair will eventually merge, with the dwarf being eaten — but it’s not going down without a fight.
In introducing their recent study* of this important subject, Zhang et al. (2017) describe how they obtained and analyzed continuous and coherent severe weather reports from 580 manned observation stations spread throughout China over the past five decades.
Were the Inuits right when they suggested polar shift has caused global warming and climate change through watching the stars over hundreds of years? Evidence suggests that the poles have shifted dramatically in the last 50 years compared to the last 400 years.
This would affect the Earth’s core temperature due to more centripetal force, and change in torque and angular momentum. If the core temperatures have increased this can be indicated by increasing magma psi.
Scientists using the ESA/NASA SOHO solar observatory have found long-sought gravity modes of seismic vibration that imply the Sun’s core is rotating four times faster than its surface.
Roughly 450 million years ago a region that was likely the size of Europe started to stretch and tear. Deep gashes opened in Earth’s crust, spewing lava that leaped into the air in luminous walls that reached up to 500 meters. Although the ground eventually grew still, the damage had just begun.
A great deal of evidence relating to ancient climate variation is preserved in proxy data such as tree rings, lake sediments, ice cores, stalagmites, corals and historical documents, and these sources carry great significance in evaluating the 20th-century warming in the context of the last two millennia.
An image of a monster crocodile caught by Outback Wrangler Matt Wright has gone viral, with some animal lovers criticizing the use of duct tape to bind the animal’s snout shut.
A NASA mission designed to explore the stars in search of planets outside of our solar system is a step closer to launch, now that its four cameras have been completed by researchers at MIT.
Government climate scientists “from 13 agencies” are committing their usual felonies today, assisted by their partners in crime at the New York Times. They want President Trump to approve a wildly fraudulent report which claims that US temperatures are rising drastically “since 1980.”
If we ever get to the point where we’re able to warp Star Trek-style around the galaxy, we’ll have to be especially careful of getting sucked into one of the many millions of black holes in the Milky Way.
In a recent work [1] we showed the growing discrepancy in between the tide gauge results and the predictions by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and even greater predictions by the local Californian panels such as [2] and [3].
Americans have suffered needless climate-related panic for the past 40 years—not realizing that, since 1850, our newspapers have given us a climate scare about every 25 years. And none of them was valid.
