Space Station to Begin Search for Proof of Dark Matter

The long-awaited experiment that will search for dark matter is getting closer to heading to the International Space Station. The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is undergoing final testing at ESA’s Test Centre in the Netherlands before being launched on the space shuttle to the ISS, currently scheduled for July, 2010

"Einstein’s Telescope": Zooming In On the Dark Side of the Universe

“Such stunning cosmic coincidences reveal so much about nature.” ~ Leonidas Moustakas, Jet Propulsion Laboratory The Hubble Space Telescope has revealed a never-before-seen optical alignment in space: a pair of glowing rings, one nestled inside the other like a bull's-eye pattern. The double-ring pattern is caused by the complex bending of light from two distant galaxies strung directly behind a foreground massive galaxy, like three beads on a string.

Mega Cities: Are They Accelerating the Planet’s Biodiversity Crisis? -A Galaxy Classic

“Every week humans create the equivalent of a city the size of Vancouver.” A new study outlines the uncomfortable question of what happens to the planet’s biodiversity when cities take over the world.

Do the Outer Planets Have Vast Oceans of Liquid Diamond?

 A little over two years ago, like an episode out of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, The Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics announced the discovery of a mass of crystallized carbon formerly known as star BPM 37093, now known as the biggest diamond in the galaxy, fifty light years away from Earth in the constellation Centaurus. The star, named “Lucy” after the Beatles song, “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,” is estimated to be 2,500 miles across and weighs approximately 10 billion-trillion-trillion-carats – a one, followed by 34 zeros.  Travis Metcalfe, an astronomer from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and leader of the team who discovered the gem, says “You would need a jeweler’s loupe the size of the sun to grade this diamond. Bill Gates and Donald Trump together couldn’t begin to afford it.” Now, scientist are explaining how it may be possible for the planets Neptune (image above) and Uranus to contain liquid diamond oceans

Do Black Holes Create New Universes? One of World’s Leading Physicists Says "Yes"

Chris Knight, the finest fictional physicist of our time, once said “All science.  No Philosophy.  Wrong.”  It’s true that an understanding of existence outside of equations is vital for scientists, both in terms of enjoying life and avoiding things like Agent Orange, but beware careless combination of the two.  A science/philosophy mixture can lead to metaphysical claims that the laws of physics are nothing but local zoning ordinances, as demonstrated by Lee Smolin. Smolin is author of “the fecund universes theory” of cosmology which suggests that the rules of biology apply on the grandest scales, and is often referred to as “cosmological natural selection”

Did "Extraterrestrial Rain" Seed the Buiding Blocks for Life on Earth?

“The notion of extraterrestrial rain may also explain another mystery, which is how the rock portion of the Earth came to have hydrogen, carbon and phosphorous – the essential components for life, which were likely lost during Earth’s violent beginning.” James Brenan of the Department of Geology at the University of Toronto According to a new study by geologists at the University of Toronto and the University of Maryland, the wealth of some minerals that lie in the rock beneath the Earth’s surface may be extraterrestrial in origin.
