Vera Rubin obituary
Astronomer who found evidence of the existence of dark matter and became an inspiration for women in science. Vera Rubin once tweeted: “Dont let anyone tell you that you aren’t good enough. My science teacher once told me I wasn’t good enough for science and look at me now.” In the 1970s and early 80s […]
Will scientists ever prove the existence of dark matter?
Astronomers in the US are setting up an experiment which, if it fails as others have could mark the end of a 30-year-old theory. Deep underground, in a defunct gold mine in South Dakota, scientists are assembling an array of odd devices: a chamber for holding tonnes of xenon gas; hundreds of light detectors, each […]
A possible ninth planet may be the reason for a tilt in our solar system
“A hypothetical giant world beyond Neptune, which could be located in the next few years, orbits at a 30-degree angle to other planets,” astronomers said. Astronomers presented new research on the possibility of a gigantic, unseen planet beyond Neptune on Wednesday, saying the hypothetical world may have set the solar system at a tilt. Researchers […]
Milky weigh: our galaxy has the mass of 700bn suns, say scientists
Most accurate measurement so far has estimated the collective mass of the Milky Ways stars, black holes, dust, dark matter – and unidentified flying objects Our galaxy has a collective mass 700 billion times that of the sun, according to the most accurate measurement yet by scientists. The estimate covers the mass of all the […]
