Fast radio bursts returning from space are mysterious. this is weirder

We are driven to determine if the “truth is over”. If we had all the pieces, they could fit together and create a bridge to a greater understanding.

To determine whether unexplained phenomena in the sky are normal or require some other explanation, the team will gather evidence and analyze the data from a scientific perspective. The nine-month study begins in the fall, and the results will be shared with the public.

“I have spent most of my life as a cosmologist,” said David Spirkle, the astronomer who led the team. I can tell you, we don’t know what 95% of the universe is.”

To impress you, here are some other unusual things we learned this week.

Mysterious fast radio bursts have long fascinated astronomers because they don’t understand what causes millisecond-long flashes in space.

Radio wave pulses have now been detected in a galaxy about 3 billion light-years away. He is stranger than the others.

The celestial body constantly released weak radio waves between the repeated explosions. There is only one fast radio burst known to do this, which astronomers wonder if there was more than one of these unexplained events.

It is a living thing.

Scientists are the first to learn how to grow human-like skin with a robotic finger.

According to the researchers, this improvement is a step closer to giving robots the look and feel of creatures.

The same cells that serve as the building blocks of human skin were used in the experiments. The Human skin is also able to repel water.

Researchers are interested in adding a vascular system that helps the skin hold itself, nails grow and break up sweat. With human-like hands, robots could one day help us with amazing tasks.

Meet Fernando. It’s a big event in the Galapagos and we wouldn’t blame you if you sang ABBA’s “Fernando” in her memory.

In 2019, a single female baby turtle was discovered on Fernandina Island in the Galapagos Islands. Its discovery shocked scientists because they believed that Fernandina’s turtles had become extinct, especially due to the more active volcano on the island.

In a new genetic study, Fernanda revealed that the island’s indigenous species, especially compared to the DNA of a sample of male tortoises collected from the island in 1906.

And Fernanda shouldn’t be her last type. Recent evidence suggests there are many more like it on the island – but future voyages and turtles face strong volcanic challenges.

The NASA team lost contact with Ingenuity for two days in May due to the arrival of rotating dust storms. The small helicopter now experiences cold nights without a heater and has less solar power due to the lack of sunlight. But Copter A A project to help you live smart and keep traveling to Mars.

Dino Mait!

The ancient bones newly discovered on the White Island belonged to one of the largest fishermen in Europe. Spinosaurus, a two-legged dinosaur with a crocodile face It was bigger than a double-decker bus.

The bones of an animal that lived 125 million years ago may have belonged to a newly discovered species. But scientists need more information to confirm.

Thanks to the numerous fossils extracted from the island, it is called the White Island Dinosaur capital of England. If you are interested in more dinosaurs, “Jurassic World: Dominion” I was Released this week.
