Magnetar
Magnetar is a neutron star with an exceptionally strong magnetic field π«
When approaching this star several thousand kilometers away, a person will simply be torn apart by the presence of iron in his blood!
Scientists have made high-quality pictures of "micro-alien" using an electron microscope
They turned out to be fossils of ancient microorganisms that may have existed at the time of the birth of the solar system, that is, before the formation of the Earth.
The most interesting thing is that among others were found magnetotactics - microorganisms that could arise only on an object with a magnetic field and water. So on a planet π§
Scientists believe this is direct evidence that panspermia (bringing life to Earth) is a very real theory of the origin of life on our planet.
Exoplanet Gliese 581D is twice as big and eight times heavier than Earth
But there, just like on Earth, it rains, snows fall and even rivers flowπ²
Gliese 581D is 20 light-years from Earth, in the constellation Libra.
Scientists claim that on its surface there are all conditions for the origin of life: atmosphere, seas, oceans, stable temperature, not exceeding +50Β°Π‘ at the hottest time of the year.
Where does Jupiter get its rings?
The main ring of Jupiter was discovered in 1979 by the Voyager 1 spacecraft, but its origin was then a mystery! Galileo data confirmed the hypothesis that the ring was created by meteoroids striking small nearby satellites.
When a small meteoroid collides with the small satellite Metida, for example, it evaporates and ejects dust and other debris into orbit around Jupiter.
This infrared image of Jupiter from the James Webb Space Telescope shows not only Jupiter and its clouds, but also this ring.
Natural Radio Signals from Venus
When the Parker probe was launched in 2018, no one hoped to get any information about other planets. Parker's goal was to explore the Sun.
But in 2020, when the probe flew near Venus at close range, it managed to record a radio signal coming from the planet. Now we have a chance to hear it.
