Astronomers Have Spotted an Oldest Star in The Universe

The Universe is one of the unique topics that always we have some interesting themes to write about. Today’s article is devoted to the oldest star that astronomers have detected.

Top 10 Dark Matter Facts that Is Worth Reading and Knowing

Dark Matter is one of the mysterious phenomenon in space. We know very little about it. So Dark matter is a theorized form of matter that is believed to account for approximately 80% of the mass of matter in the universe, and about a quarter of its total energy density. We are suggesting you to know top 10 Dark Matter facts that is worth reading.

Interesting Facts and Mysterious Secrets about Dark Energy that you Force to Know

Dark Energy is so mysterious phenomenon that always arouse humans interest to know and discover more and more about it. So speaking about dark energy we are surely can say that it is more unknown than known. And what about Dark matter, it is also the same, we are much more certain what dark matter is not than we are what it is. But the observations about dark matter will be in our next post.

The Universe Expansion is Accelerating

The universe’s expansion is accelerating, an observation that prompted astronomers to invoke an unknown entity called dark energy to explain it, has been further confirmed by new measurements. Scientists have used cosmic magnifying glasses called gravitational lenses to observe super-bright distant galaxies, giving a measure of how quickly the universe is blowing up like a giant balloon. They found, in agreement with previous measurements, that the universe’s expansion is indeed speeding up over time.

Map of Distant Galaxies May Reveal Dark Energy History

Scientists think that dark energy, the weird force blamed for propelling the universe to expand at an accelerated speed, probably turned on between 5 and 7 billion years ago. Now astronomers have mapped thousands of galaxies from this era, and have determined the most precise distances to them yet, in an effort to get to the bottom of the dark energy mystery. Dark energy is thought to represent about 74 percent of the universe’s total mass and energy, dwarfing ordinary matter.

NASA Galaxy Evolution Explorer Mission Comes to the End

NASA’s Galaxy Evolution Explorer, or Galex, was placed in standby mode as engineers prepare to end mission operations, nearly nine years after the telescope’s launch. The spacecraft is scheduled to be decommissioned. The Galaxy Evolution Explorer was launched on April 28, 2003. Its mission is to study the shape, brightness, size and distance of galaxies across 10 billion years of cosmic history. The 50 centimeter diameter (19.7-inch) telescope onboard the Galaxy Evolution Explorer sweeps the skies in search of ultraviolet-light sources.

Top 10 Scientific News of 2011

Below are top 10 scientific stories of 2011.Israeli company has reported about the invention on a new vaccine for cancer. Vaccine which can also be used as a drug to cure the diseased person is called Vaxil. A rare half-male and half-female butterfly has emerged at the Natural History Museum’s Sensational Butterflies exhibition. In November 2011, reports have indicated that unique specie of lobster – a blue European lobster – was found in the fish market of Billingsgate, London. The European lobster is very similar to the American lobster, Homarus americanus, but it appears smaller and less aggressive. It can live to over 15 years in the wild but their rarely reach that age to do being heavily fished.

Dark Energy is Exists

New results from NASAs Galaxy Evolution Explorer and the Anglo Australian Telescope on Siding Spring Mountain in Australia confirm that dark energy is exists

Scientists Created the Largest 3-D Map of the Distant Universe

Scientists from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey created the largest 3-D map of the distant universe using the light of the brightest objects in the cosmos.To creat this map scientists relied on 14,000 quasars.
