(Natural News) Every time it gets hit by solar wind and other cosmic impulses, the magnetic field of Earth ripples until the waves arrive at the magnetic poles, which shunts the force back into space. Researchers liken this effect to a percussion drum being played. The theory about the Earth’s magnetopause – the outer border […]

(Natural News) Move over, International Space Station (ISS) – Austrian researchers believe it is possible to build future space stations inside the bigger asteroids orbiting the Earth and mine the space rocks for valuable resources. In a study supported by the University of Vienna, the researchers used mathematics to demonstrate how to dig a tunnel toward the center of an asteroid, […]

(Natural News) For decades, Americans have been fascinated with UFOs — “unidentified flying objects” — as millions have speculated that our own planet has regularly been visited by beings from another world.  In recent months, the U.S. Navy even released some shocking footage captured in 2015 by a flight of F/A-18s off the coast of […]

(Natural News) Astronauts make a lot of sacrifices in their line of work. The longer they stay in space, the more severely their health suffers. Latest research warns that long-term stays in space could drastically weaken the immune systems of astronauts, making them much more vulnerable to the onset and effects of deadly diseases like […]

(Natural News) It’s a well-established fact that Earth’s magnetic north pole is constantly on the move, which is why the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) updates the data in its World Magnetic Model every five years to reflect the north pole’s ever-fluctuating geographical position. But this constant magnetic shift has now become so dramatic […]

(Natural News) If you think back to what you were taught in high school science class, you may recall learning that light always travels at a constant speed of 186,282 miles per second (mi/sec). But modern physicists have come to a much different conclusion, observing that the speed of light may actually be somewhat variable […]

(Natural News) Space is for everyone – that is to say, everyone at the lead of the space race who can afford large satellites and the rockets to put them in space. But researchers suggest that changing the way satellites are built and deployed could solve a lot of problems, including the issue of space […]

(Natural News) Long ago, Earth got hit by a rogue planet, and the resulting planetary collision ejected what later became the moon into orbit around the now-fused planet. Researchers are now theorizing that the giant impactor also made it possible for life to set root on our planet much later on. The leading theory behind the […]

(Natural News) Early this year, China’s lunar probe Chang’e 4 landed on the unexplored far side of the moon carrying with it a canister of plant seeds. A couple of days later, Chinese scientists confirmed that some of the cotton plants have sprouted – the first time plants were able to do so on the far side […]

(Natural News) Some 565 million years ago, the fate of the Earth was hanging in the balance as the planet’s protective magnetic field narrowly avoided a full collapse. Scientists say that had this essential barrier fallen, solar winds would have stripped the Earth of its atmosphere. Our planet’s surface would have been scorched by radiation, […]
