In a stunning cosmological find, astronomers saw an ultra-massive and magnetic stellar remnant speeding through our galaxy at record speed. Called a “zombie star,” the object—properly known as SGR 0501+4516—is moving through the Milky Way at over 110,000 miles per hour (177,000 km/h). Even more dramatic is the star’s fatal magnetic field capable of ripping…
Hyperloop represents an emerging high-speed mass transit system. (AI image) India is set to construct the world’s longest hyperloop test facility, which will help evaluate the feasibility of commercial operations for this advanced transport system. The infrastructure, capable of achieving speeds up to 1,100 kilometres per hour, follows the successful completion of a 422-metre test…
NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is closely monitoring three asteroids set to pass Earth on December 11, 2024. While their proximity might raise concerns, scientists assure that none of these celestial objects pose any danger. Instead, their approach provides an invaluable opportunity for researchers to study near-Earth objects (NEOs) and deepen our understanding of the…
