Astronomers have spotted another “rogue planet” wandering throughout our Milky Way galaxy. Interestingly enough, this exoplanet doesn’t have any parent star attached to it. It was also found out that it has a similar mass between that of Earth and Mars, though it’s 10% heavier. Once confirmed, it would be a huge scientific milestone in observing rogue planets, which are believed to be in abundance especially outside our galaxy.
Taking care of Mother Earth has always been a hot topic for a few decades now, among environmentalists. Thankfully, research on mushrooms (yeah, you heard it right!) might help contribute to dealing with climate change in the future. Fungi are not only durable but also biodegrade when it’s time to knock them down, which can be a good alternative to concrete or other forms of more polluting materials.
Quantum teleportation has been successfully demonstrated for the very first time. It’s the process of sending qubits of photons through fiber-optic cables. This scientific breakthrough could be used to develop quantum internet, which can revolutionize computing and data storage for many years to come. It can also be the start of a new era of communication.
Mankind has been eyeing to go to Mars for quite some time now. That’s because living on planets other than our Earth is the major step in becoming an interplanetary species. There have been numerous attempts to scour the Red Planet in order to study its composition, surface, and atmosphere.
