(Natural News) Russia aims to strengthen its economic ties with China aside from sharing common interests and making technological developments together. “Now that the West has taken the position of a ‘dictator,’ our economic ties with China will grow even faster,” Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in a press release Monday, May 23. Lavrov made the […]

(Natural News) In 2025, NASA is planning on sending another space crew to the moon. However, the only people who will be allowed on the craft are black women and other “people of color” – white men need not apply, in other words. Since skin color and gender are now more important than things like […]

(Natural News) Researchers have discovered that the Antarctic seabed is teeming a rich community of sea creatures. The marine organisms – trapped under the ice for five decades – came to light after an iceberg over two times bigger than New York City broke off of the Brunt Ice Shelf in northern Antarctica last month. The iceberg, called A-74, drifted into the […]

(Natural News) The extreme temperatures on planet Venus are not suitable for supporting life. But a new study found that sunlight on Venus’s clouds could enable microorganisms to thrive by means of photosynthesis. Researchers at California State Polytechnic University Pomona report this in a Sept. 27 study published in Astrobiology. They note that photosynthesis occurs all day on Venus […]

(Natural News) Scientists at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have discovered craters of extinct volcanoes on the surface of Mars. They stumble upon these craters after initially considering them to be sites where asteroids fell. The NASA scientists’ finding builds upon suggestions that the planet may still have active volcanoes that harbor life. […]

(Natural News) Researchers are plumbing the depths of Mauna Loa in Hawaii to study the volcano’s lava tubes. The researchers wear bulky suits like those required for space exploration while navigating volcanic terrain and conducting research. Besides studying the environment and organisms living there, the team’s goal is to prepare for the unique challenges of living in space, particularly on Mars […]

(Natural News) Small “snowflakes” of radioactive uranium that trigger massive nuclear blasts in space could help explain some of the universe’s more bizarre star explosions. According to theoretical physicist Matt Caplan, it is important to understand how these explosions occur for all sorts of applications, from the production of elements to the expansion of the universe. Caplan studies astromaterials – the […]

(Natural News) Researchers at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have stated that evidence of ancient life on Mars may have been “erased” as the planet’s climate changed. Scientists claimed that millions of years ago, Mars was full of lakes that possibly harbored microbial life. However, its climate eventually changed – drying out these lakes as a result. […]

(Natural News) A new study published June 7 in the journal Scientific Reports found that space travel weakens the immune system by causing the abnormal activation of cells that suppress immune responses. Researchers from the University of California, San Francisco and the Stanford University School of Medicine arrived at this finding after exposing human blood samples to […]

(Natural News) Anders Sandberg of the University of Oxford suggests looking for hypothetical star-sized structures called Dyson spheres to find aliens. He notes that if advanced alien civilizations do exist, they may have built one of these spheres and used it as a supercomputer, solar-capture technology or habitat. “I think you can find a bunch of very different […]
