The nanoparticles released into the atmosphere by human activities would contribute to intensifying water extremes (heavy rainfall and droughts). At least that’s what a study recently published in the journal Scientific Reports suggests. Also, the authors call for a better consideration of these compounds in the dynamics of the water cycle. While air quality has […]

In Israel, archaeologists say they have excavated the remains of a 2,100-year-old farmhouse that the owners likely hastily abandoned, perhaps to avoid an imminent military invasion. A farm “frozen in time” The site, called Horbat Assad, is east of the Sea of ​​Galilee. The remains of this old farmhouse were discovered during surveys in anticipation […]

American physicists and engineers have developed a mobile 3D printer with the aim of manufacturing imposing structures in space. Thanks to its ease of use, this innovation could notably promote the presence of humans on Mars. A prototype of a mobile 3D printer already being tested One of the essential conditions for the exploration and […]

An incredibly well-preserved Iron Age arrow (complete with its tip, tendon casings and streamlined feathers) has been found by a team of archaeologists on a mountain in Norway. Carved about 1,700 years ago, the weapon is believed to have been used to hunt reindeer in the area. Located in the Norwegian mountains of Jotunheimen, the […]

Commercial space company Astrobotic has unveiled its near-complete lander, designed to carry payloads on behalf of clients on the surface of the Moon. Its first launch is scheduled for the end of this year. NASA has been focusing its main efforts on the Artemis program for several years. Its goal is to bring humans back […]

In the icy expanses of our Solar System, two domes tower over the surface of the dwarf planet Pluto. These two structures have long questioned researchers. Some have speculated that these could be cryovolcanoes spewing large amounts of melting ice. A comprehensive analysis of the images and topographic data returned by the probes confirms these […]

Perseverance is currently trying to cover more ground in a single month than any rover before it. At the end of this five-kilometre journey full of pitfalls, the vehicle will reach an ancient river delta that may harbor traces of past life. In the summer of 2020, NASA took advantage of a launch window to […]

Recently, the European Space Agency (ESA) communicated on a future new space mission to the Moon. While this is a still hypothetical project that could start after 2030, the mission will have the merit of being the first to attempt an underground exploration of the Earth satellite. A possible launch in 2033 For more than […]
