NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSS/ Gerald Eichstädt /Seán DoranScientists have discovered over 4,000 exoplanets outside of our Solar System, according to NASA’s Exoplanet Archive. Some of these planets orbit multiple stars at the same time. Certain planets are so close to their star that it takes only a handful of days to make one revolution, compared to the Earth which takes 365.25 days. Others slingshot around their star with extrem
We know dark matter exists — a mysterious substance that is five times as prevalent in the Universe by mass as what we think of as “normal” matter, the stuff you and I and everything we see are made of. We see its effects through its gravity, even though we don’t know what it’s made of yet. Dark matter affects how galaxies rotate, and how they move in gigantic galaxy clusters. We also see its effects via gravitational lensing. Mass has gravity, which warps space. If we look past some massive obj

Steve Corey/flickr, CC BY-NDIn the 1990s, a psychologist named Martin Seligman led the positive psychology movement, which placed the study of human happiness squarely at the center of psychology research and theory. It continued a trend that began in the 1960s with humanistic and existential psychology, which emphasized the importance of reaching one’s innate potential and creating meaning in one’s life, respectively

The likelihood of a “megaflood” occurring in California has doubled due to climate change, according to a new study published on Friday. The study, published in the Science Advances journal, found an increased likelihood of runoff water occurring from harsher storms, creating the threat of debris flows and landslides later, according to a press release…
As climate change decimates forests in places like Europe and the American west, boreal trees are moving into the Arctic.

PARIS (Reuters) -The European Space Agency (ESA) has begun preliminary technical discussions with Elon Musk's SpaceX that could lead to the temporary use of its launchers after the Ukraine conflict blocked Western access to Russia's Soyuz rockets. The private American competitor to Europe's Arianespace has emerged as a key contender to plug a temporary gap alongside Japan and India, but final decisions depend on the still unresolved timetable for Europe's delayed Ariane 6 rocket. One is SpaceX that is clear.
