While the collision was an accident, it is a unique scientific gift for planetary geologists that could provide important data for future space missions.
In April 2029, a rare visitor is going to swing through near-Earth space.
En el verano del año 15 antes de Cristo, los dos hijastros del emperador Augusto, Tiberio y Druso, sometieron los Alpes centrales y la meseta suiza al control de Roma. Aquella campaña cerró décadas de esfuerzos por unir las provincias galas con Iliria y asegurar las rutas entre el norte de Italia y
Researchers outline a theoretical plan to help Earth survive the Sun's death through artificial sunlight and other futuristic technologies.
In about one billion years, the Sun is expected to exhaust the hydrogen fuel in its core and expand into a red giant. As it swells, the intense heat would strip away Earth’s oceans and atmosphere. Scientists believe the planet could eventually be engulfed.
Later, the Sun would collapse into a faint white dwarf, leaving the solar system cold and dim. Farther into the future, in about 100 trillion years, the universe is expected to stop producing new stars.
A new study argues that life on Earth may not have to end with those events. Instead of abandoning the planet, researchers outline a series of theoretical engineering projects designed to keep Earth habitable for trillions of years.
The proposals rely on technologies far beyond today’s capabilities and are intended to explore what physics may ultimately allow rather than what can be built now.

The government has asked scientists to carry out research into the impact of the controversial pregnancy drug DES, following an ITV News investigation.
Diethylstilbestrol, commonly known as DES, was a synthetic hormone prescribed to an estimated 300'000 women on the NHS between the late 1930s and 1980s to treat several issues, including miscarriage, until it was linked to rare cancers and infertility in the daughters of those who took it.

Scientists warn about space debris after huge SpaceX rocket part thought to have hit Moon - BBC News
The stray upper stage (section) of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket is about the size of a five-storey building, with a mass of at least 4,000kg.
Our satellite has endured countless blows over millions of years - and astronomers think this one could be a useful accident.
Researchers found DNA from two unknown ancestor lineages in modern genomes, revealing a more complex history of human interbreeding.
Inscribed Roman sling bullets found in Spain help date a military camp linked to a 39 BC uprising against Roman forces.
A 2,000-year-old Chinese emperor's tomb revealed record Han Dynasty gold, nearly 2 million coins, and rare Confucian artifacts.

Con Galaxy Fold8 Samsung mette in campo un terzo form factor, andando a così ad offrire una ulteriore opzione per chi trova troppo stretto, piccolo e non funzionale lo schermo sterno dei classici Fold e Flip. Fold8 è senza alcun dubbio il pieghevole più comodo da usare da chiuso, ma come ogni
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra's new processor, brighter screens and chassis tweaks are nice, but the updates don’t do enough to earn the ‘ultra’ tag.
NASA awarded $175,000 for preliminary research into lunar cave-spelunking drones as part of $3.2 million dispersed via its “innovative advanced concepts” awards this summer.
I tested the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, and it's truly like having an iPad mini or Kindle in your pocket.
Every night, astronomers must carefully assess changing weather, the intensity of moonlight and shifting atmospheric conditions before deciding
For decades, engineers have searched for underground tunnels by sending signals from the surface downward — an approach
Technocrats have pried open Federal land for AI data center construction. You might have missed Trump's Executive Order 14318, "Accelerating Federal Permitting of Data Center Infrastructure," on July 23, 2025, alongside the release of the "Winning the Race: America's AI Action Plan." Waiting to pounce with billions of dollars were large investment companies like BlackRock, KKR, Blackstone, and Carlyle. So far, it's a feeding frenzy.
We may owe our very existence to an ancient poop explosion. If the earliest animals hadn't been such prolific poopers, life might not have diversified into all the weird and wonderful forms we see today. That's the conclusion reached by a new review study published in Trends in Ecology & Evolution.
NASA’s viral Mars photo shows a rock that looks like a walking man, but experts say it is a natural formation explained by pareidolia and erosion.
