Apophis Asteroid, Nicknamed ‘God of Chaos,’ is Speeding Up
An asteroid that has been nicknamed after the Egyptian God of Chaos is speeding up, scientists recently revealed. Elon Musk in 2019 said that despite the asteroid's 'great name' he wouldn't worry about it.
The first duckbill dinosaur (Hadrosauridae: Lambeosaurinae) from Africa and the role of oceanic dispersal in dinosaur biogeography
Given the existence of large, persistent seaways isolating Africa and Europe from other continents, and the absence of the extensive, bidirectional interchange characterizing land bridges, these patterns suggest dispersals across marine barriers, similar to those seen in Cenozoic mammals, reptiles, and amphibians.
New fossil discovery suggests dinosaurs traveled across oceans
Fossils of a duckbill dinosaur have been discovered in Africa, leading experts to believe the species once traveled hundreds of kilometers across oceans to reach the continent.
Betelgeuse Is Neither as Far Nor as Large as We Thought
In the wake of recent fluctuations in Betelgeuse's brightness, astronomers have rigorously examined the star's vital statistics, and come up with a bit of a surprise.
Betelgeuse is 25 percent closer than scientists thought
Scientists studying the star Betelgeuse have determined that it’s actually roughly 25% closer than previous estimates.
Earth’s Burning, Churning Engine
New research has uncovered a flaw in our understanding of the core — specifically, about the manner in which heat energy flows from the core and through the overlying mantle.
Earth’s Orbital Shifts May Have Triggered Ancient Global Warming
A study combining astronomical and geologic data hints at an extraterrestrial cause for extreme climate change 56 million years ago.
Earthquake report world-wide for Tuesday, 21 May 2019
Total seismic energy estimate: 1.8*10^13 J (5.12 GWh / 4407 tons of TNT / 0.3 atomic bombs equivalent)
Mammoth collision of `impossible’ black holes detected for the first time
The most massive black hole collision ever detected has been directly observed by the LIGO and VIRGO Scientific Collaboration, which includes scientists from The Australian National University (ANU).
