we’ve found more and more planets outside the solar system in recent years — more than 2,000 candidates in all — a strange new class of world has emerged. These are ones that appear to be flying all alone in…
Using new mathematical models and 3-D maps to explore where no telescope has gone before, a team of international researchers has determined that there are approximately 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe – 10 times more than previously thought.…
The discovery of alien life could be a step closer after scientists found a newly discovered planet is “likely” to harbour life forms. A team at the Marseille Astrophysics Laboratory (CNRS) believes planet Proxima b, which was first spotted in…
NASA Have recently suggested the possibility of alien artifacts being found within our solar system Recent advances in deep space observation now means it is now not only possible to locate small objects a few feet wide, but also detect…
Are ALIENS harbouring energy from BLACK HOLES? 64 found spinning in sync in one region SCIENTISTS have been left baffled by the discovery black holes that have aligned in close proximity in a region of the distant universe which has…
New evidence of Planet X The most convincing so far is a recent study by scientists at the University of Arizona, who looked at the high eccentricity of distant Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs). They suggest their strange orbital paths reveal…

BREAKING NEWS For the first time, scientists have successfully traced mysterious “fast radio bursts” (FRBs), which have been speculated to be signs of extraterrestrial intelligence, to a galaxy six billion light years away. Just 17 such radio blasts have…
The collision between Earth and the “planetary embryo” known as Theia that took place roughly 100 million years after our planet formed was most likely responsible for forming the moon, according to new research published Friday in the journal Science.…
A team of Australian scientists has found the closest potentially habitable planet orbiting a star just 14 light years away. At 130 trillion kilometres it might sound impossibly distant, but Wolf 1061 in the constellation Ophiucus is the 35th closest…
