oh that? it's only the brightest extragalactic supernova in history

SpaceTime Series 28 Episode 05 Volcanic Activity on Mars New research suggests recent volcanic activity on Mars, with eruptions possibly occurring within the last 50,000 years. This discovery, based on satellite observations, highlights a mysterious dark deposit in Elysium Planitia, indicating explosive volcanism. The findings could mean Mars is still volcanically active, raising possibilities of habitable conditions due to interactions between magma and icy substrates. Mysteries of Supernova 1987A Astronomers using the Murchison Wide Field Array have been delving into the enigmatic Supernova 1987A. The supernova, marking the death of a blue supergiant star, offers insights into stellar evolution. The peculiar hourglass shape and the unexpected blue supergiant phase of the progenitor star continue to puzzle scientists. Dream Chaser Space Plane Launch Delayed The inaugural flight of the Dream Chaser space plane, Tenacity, is now scheduled for May. The spacecraft will carry supplies to the International Space Station, showcasing its capabilities. Sierra Space plans to use Dream Chaser for future missions, including building an orbiting habitat. 00:00 New study claims there's evidence for recent volcanic activity on Mars 05:34 Low frequency radio observations have provided a window into SN 1987A's past life 13:30 The long awaited inaugural flight of Sierra Space's Dream Chaser space plane is now expected 18:52 Canadian scientists compared prevalence and risk of mental disorders between trans and gender diverse people 21:07 Phoenix, Arizona named as America's top location for UFO sightings www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com www.bitesz.com 🌏 Get Our Exclusive NordVPN deal here ➼ www.bitesz.com/nordvpn.
