Astronomers at the University of Hawaii Institute for Astronomy, in collaboration with international researchers, have unveiled findings that suggest our cosmic neighborhood may be significantly larger than previously understood. The Cosmicflows team has been examining the movements of 56,000 galaxies, uncovering a possible expansion in the scale of our galactic basin of attraction.
A deca China insists nuclear stance defensive after 'routine' ICBM launch

China said on Thursday that its launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) into the Pacific Ocean was "legitimate and routine", insisting that its nuclear stance remained defensive after the rare test prompted an outcry from countries in the region.
Beijing announced the trial on Wednesday - its first such test in four decades - saying that the missile was carrying a dummy warh Using satellite data to expand understanding of river flow dynamics

Since 1953, an equation known as at-a-station hydraulic geometry (AHG) has been used to explain the relationship between river width, depth, velocity, and river discharge - the volume of water flowing through a river channel. AHG plays a key role in hydraulic engineering, flood prediction, and navigation. However, traditional methods for studying AHG through field research offer limited sample s EchoStar plots direct-to-device satellite push after shedding Dish and debt

Unveiling the hidden snow dunes shaping Antarctica's frozen landscape
Tuesday, 01 October 2024 06:00 Write a comment
Sand dunes are a familiar sight along beaches and in deserts. While we know how regular sand dunes are formed, much less is known about dunes made of snow. In a new study, scientists have analysed the vast snow dunes across Antarctica – reshaping our understanding of the continent's surface dynamics.
This research sheds light on the unexplored world of Antarctic snow dunes, offering a fresh perspective on the complex interactions between wind, snow and climate in one of Earth's harshest environments.
