Anomalies Discovered in the Great Pyramid
Scientists using new technology have announced some intriguing new discoveries while peering deep inside the great pyramids of Giza. The results come from the Scan Pyramids group, a collaboration between the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities and a host of international tech companies and universities. The team has been using high-tech muography, thermal imaging and 3-D scanning techniques to fully map the interior of the Great Pyramid of Khufu. The team is also working on the nearby pyramid of ..>> view originalNew View of Mars Reveals Ghostly Ultraviolet Glow
Mars in ultraviolet light is a wondrous place. By night, the dark side of the planet is aglow with nitric oxide. By day, clouds quickly merge together into banks that stretch 1,000 miles long.The new view of Mars comes from the orbiting MAVEN spacecraft, which this month begins a third year of studies about how the planet most like Earth in the solar system lost most of its atmosphere. When the spacecraft reaches the most distant part its orbit — MAVEN travels as far as 3,900 miles from Mars — i..>> view originalCave paintings reveal clues to mystery Ice Age beast

It’s only October, but that doesn’t seem to matter: NASA is basically sure 2016 will go down as the hottest year in recorded history. Unless a rogue planet suddenly appears to fling the Earth off its present orbit and into the Kuiper Belt, we’re locked in. Welcome to life in a rapidly warming world. This probably won’t come as a surprise to those who’ve been keeping up with our record smashingly-long streak of record-smashingly-hot months. All the way back in May, Goddard Institute for Space ..>> view originalRadio galaxies: the mysterious, secretive "beasts" of the Universe
Most pictures of galaxies that you see, such as the beautiful images from the Hubble Space Telescope, are optical images. These are made using telescopes which detect light in the same wavelength range that our eyes see. However, scientists can design telescopes which use different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, such as shorter-wavelength ultraviolet light or longer-wavelength infrared and radio emission. When we use a radio telescope to look at galaxies, we find that some have pairs ..>> view originalHigh Stakes: Europe Aims for 1st Successful Mars Landing Today
