Magnetic North Pole, heading towards Asia. The South Magnetic Pole is heading towards Australia. This is all part of a large-scale event - the change of the planet's poles
Have you ever caught yourself thinking that you exist in a parallel Universe and everything is different there? However, such reflections, when scientists, and not ordinary people indulge in them, can tell a lot about how our Universe works
Combat missile "surface-to-air" looked somewhat unusual - its nose was lengthened by a metal cone. On November 28, 1991, it took off from a test site near the Baikonur cosmodrome and self-destructed high above the ground. Although the missile did not shoot down any aerial object, the launch target was achieved. World's first hypersonic ramjet engine
NASA and Elon Musk dream of Mars, and manned deep space missions will soon become a reality. You will probably be surprised, but modern rockets fly a little faster than the rockets of the past
The idea that our solar system was purposely built as we know it is not new. It has been discussed by scientists for some time, but information about these discussions and their conclusions, to put it mildly, is not popularized
The discoveries of recent years give more and more grounds to believe that super-Earths are planets whose composition is very different from ours. Moreover, it turned out that the terrestrial planets in other systems are likely to differ from the Earth in much richer light elements and compounds, including water
One of the great and unique monuments of ancient cultures of the world, is rightfully the majestic temple complex of Borobudur, located on the island of Java. It is considered the largest Buddhist temple in the world. Located 40 kilometers from the city of Jogyakarta
How did the universe come about and what awaits it? What is our place in the Great Space? Our civilization has no answers to these questions. Hypotheses about the Big Bang, about the parallelism of many universes, about the holographic nature of the world - and remain unproven assumptions
Despite the vague explanation about a natural nuclear reactor, this information can serve as an indirect confirmation of past nuclear wars within the solar system - the increased radioactivity of the atmosphere of Mars and the content of thorium and potassium on its surface forces scientists to come up with such tales about a natural nuclear power plant
Morning, the alarm rings, it's time to have breakfast and go to school or work. But this is us, mere mortals, but what about the astronauts, what do they do during the day?
The Universe is older than hitherto assumed, and contains more dark matter - such significant conclusions were presented by the European research satellite "Planck". The results of his work were presented by the European Space Agency ESA on March 21, 2013, in Paris
The American rover Curiosity captured the skeleton of an unknown animal on the Red Planet. In structure, it resembles the bones of a lizard. The video spread all over the Internet, causing a great surprise of interest from both ordinary users and specialists
Vitaly Belimov investigates anomalous phenomena and, in particular, is looking for evidence of the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations after his participation in expeditions to the area of the fall of the Tunguska meteorite. In this interview, he talks about several interesting cases
The analytical article by Alexei Kungurov does not claim to be complete and reliable. But the fact that the official versions do not stand up to criticism is obvious. What's even more surprising is that the events in Chelyabinsk were repeated in other places
This was announced by former NASA employee and space flight engineer Clark McClelland
Two living beings have spent more than a day in space, having made 17 orbits. And most importantly, they returned to Earth safe and sound. Their names were Belka and Strelka, they were of the simplest origin, but they were the first to see the Earth from space
According to the new hypothesis, the universe imitates its own existence in a "strange loop". An article published by scientists from the Institute for Quantum Gravity Research argues that the hypothesis is based on the theory of panpsychism, according to which everything in nature is animated
What exactly happened on board, it was not possible to establish from Earth. Only the possibility of complete destruction of the station was ruled out: with the help of optical means of the anti-missile defense system, the Salyut-7 was perceived as an integral object
Scientists recently found an unpublished article by Winston Churchill. In it, he talks about exoplanets and the high probability of the appearance of living beings in other star systems. In 1939 and 2017, the scientifically grounded belief in aliens only aroused admiration, but 417 years ago it led to the stake
Last week, Japanese scientists reported that during the experiment, a colony of deinococcus bacteria spent three years in outer space and survived. This indirectly proves that microorganisms are able to travel from planet to planet together with comets or asteroids and populate the most distant corners of the Universe
I continue to blow up clichés and stereotypes in the heads of "Soviet people". One of the cornerstones in imperial thinking is the myth of the greatness and achievements of the USSR in space technology. However, the truth is that there are no space technologies of the USSR
We may be living in a bubble. But this is hardly the strangest thing that you have heard about our universe. Now, among the myriad of theories and hypotheses, another has emerged. The new study is an attempt to solve one of the most difficult mysteries of modern physics: why our measurements of the rate of expansion of the universe do not make sense?
The same man promised us a Martian city, a multi-level underworld and vacuum trains, all powered by electricity from the Sun. Life spoke with scientists who deal with all these issues professionally
Russians have a saying "we look at a book - we see a fig !?" This is about the fact that many people, looking at a text, picture or photograph, may not understand or not comprehend even half of the information that a particular text, picture or photograph carries
It is hard to believe that space exploration for the USSR was so successful: the first attempt with human participation - and immediately good luck! During a tense rivalry between the Soviet Union and America, the temptation was too great to pass off wishful thinking to maintain the country's prestige
Below we will analyze a dozen of interesting achievements of the USSR in the field of space exploration or its attempts to gain space glory in front of other countries of the world
In 1969-1972, the United States reported six times the landing of its astronauts on the moon. The political leadership of the USSR recognized the victory of the United States in the lunar race and made no open attempts at revenge. After that, hundreds of researchers studied the "lunar" evidence from NASA and came to the conclusion that the Americans hoaxed flights to the moon
For sane people, it has long been clear that Americans have never flown to any moon
The simplest arithmetic calculations convincingly show that the force of attraction of the Moon to the Sun is 2 times greater than that of the Moon to the Earth. This means that, according to the "Law of Universal Gravitation", the Moon must revolve around the Sun
There is overwhelming evidence of alien visits to Earth, Dr. Stephen Greer, director of the Disclosure Project and the Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence, told RT program SophieCo. The ufologist claims that representatives of extraterrestrial civilizations have been conducting so-called reconnaissance missions for a long time
Some objects on the Moon can hardly be attributed to natural formations, they are more like the result of high-tech activities. Just three such examples, which may not have been known to you, are offered by the Kramola portal
Ken Johnston and Richard Hoagland said that at one time American astronauts discovered on the moon the ruins of ancient cities and artifacts that speak of the existence of some highly developed civilization on it in the distant past
The other day I was asked to consult the infographic of RIA Novosti, dedicated to the first launch from the Vostochny cosmodrome. And there will be one major simplification due to the limitations of the format of the material. In fact, we do not need the Vostochny cosmodrome because the majority of civilian launches take place from the Baikonur cosmodrome
We celebrate this Cosmonautics Day in a completely different country, in a situation where Russia has found itself in the position of catching up, whose space technologies are quite consistent with the present day - but may turn out to be outdated and ineffective in the future
Let us determine the radiation dose during the passage of the radiation belts, as well as take into account the radiation hazard of the solar wind. We will use the generally accepted model of the Earth's radiation belt AP-8 min
Aluminum "shell" 102 mm, protecting the super-critical blocks of the ISS, which was hit by a piece of plastic at a speed of 6795 m / s
Academician Boris Katorgin, the creator of the world's best liquid-propellant rocket engines, explains why the Americans still cannot repeat our achievements in this area and how to keep the Soviet head start in the future
The renowned cosmonaut Alexei Leonov, personally preparing to participate in the Soviet lunar exploration program, denied long-standing rumors that American astronauts were not on the Moon, and that the footage broadcast on television around the world was allegedly edited in Hollywood
