How Do You Build A Mirror For One Of The World’s Biggest Telescopes?

How Do You Build A Mirror For One Of The World’s Biggest Telescopes? | When astronomers point their telescopes up at the sky to see distant supernovae or quasars, they’re collecting light that’s traveled millions or even billions of light-years through space. Even huge and powerful energy sources in the cosmos are unimaginably tiny and faint when we view them from such a distance. In order to learn about galaxies as...

‘Dyson sphere’ megastructure ISN’T a swarm of comets

The 'dyson sphere' signals are NOT caused by comets: Study says 'alien megastructure' is still unexplained | A series of bizarre readings from a star called KIC8462852 is still baffling scientists. Recently, Nasa scientists said that it could be a swarm of comets causing the strange signals. But a team at Louisiana State University said that for the star to dim by about 20 per cent over the course of an entire century,it would...

Galactic 'Burp' Shows Black Holes Can Also Create, Not Just Destroy

Galactic 'burp' shows black holes can also create, not just destroy | Scientists have discovered evidence of a powerful galactic blast produced by a comparatively nearby supermassive black hole located some 26 million light-years away from Earth. The black hole,centred in a small galaxy called NGC 5195, is the nearest of its kind to Earth undergoing such violent outbursts,which the researchers have likened to a kind of galactic...
