During the late Cretaceous, close to 80 million decades back, monsters roamed the Earth. Not just the tyrannosaurs and titanosaurs. Even more compact animals could be tremendous-sized. It was all through this time that the dimension of a style of marine mollusk peaked, with the most significant species of ammonite […]

This Miniature Particle Accelerator Powers a Tiny Laser With Huge Promise
Particle accelerators are vastly essential in the analyze of the matter of the Universe, but the types we believe of tend to be gigantic instruments – surrounding metropolitan areas in some situations. Now experts have produced a considerably smaller variation to electricity an advanced laser, a setup that could be […]
A Tsunami Likely Hurled Huge Rocks onto a Tiny Island
The dense vegetation of Isla de Mona, an uninhabited speck in the Caribbean, hides car or truck-sized boulders studded with corals. Experts very first noted recognizing them in the early 1990s, but the peculiar rocks slipped back again into obscurity right before any person investigated their origin. Now scientists have […]
A Broken Cable Has Smashed a Huge Hole in The Arecibo Observatory
Just one of the world’s most prominent astronomical observatories has a gap. On Monday, a three-inch-thick (seventy six-mm-thick) cable at the Arecibo Observatory broke, tearing a gash a hundred ft (thirty metres) very long in the reflector dish of the 20-acre radio telescope in Puerto Rico. The observatory experienced […]
Astronomers Pinpoint The Origin of Huge Gas Bubbles Flowing Out of The Milky Way
There’s an unusual paradox hampering research into parts of the Milky Way. Dense gas blocks observations of the galactic core, and it can be difficult to observe in visible light from our vantage point. But distant galaxies don’t always present the same obstacles. So in some ways, we can […]
