Researchers are Putting Einstein to the Test

SPACE Einstein’s LPI principle is tested on a black hole. Einstein is a renowned physicist best known for his theory of relativity and E-MC2, but even though his reputation largely precedes him, some researchers have taken up the task of testing his theories.

Hubble captures rare active asteroid

Thanks to an impressive collaboration bringing together data from ground-based telescopes, all-sky surveys, and space-based facilities -- including the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope -- a rare self-destructing asteroid called 6478 Gault has been observed.

New evidence of deep groundwater on Mars

Researchers suggest that deep groundwater can generate surface streams on Mars In mid-2018, researchers supported by the Italian Space Agency detected the presence of a deep-water lake on Mars under its south polar ice caps.

New Planets Discovered By Artificial Intelligence

Two new planets were reportedly discovered through the help of Artificial Intelligence. The researchers from the University of Texas in partnership with Google have utilized the Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to look into the existence of other possible astronomical objects like a meteor, an asteroid or maybe even a new planet.

Physicists constrain dark matter

Researchers from Russia, Finland, and the U.S. have put a constraint on the theoretical model of dark matter particles by analyzing data from astronomical observations of active galactic nuclei. The new findings provide an added incentive for research groups around the world trying to crack the mystery of dark matter: No one is quite sure what it is made of. The paper was published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics.
