A large number of asteroids are present in our solar system in space. Thousands of these asteroids revolve in their orbit around the Earth and its surroundings. Asteroids of the Apollo group are present near the Earth, about which NASA says that their orbit is very large and they intersect the Earth’s orbit. That’s why…
Last year, the DART spacecraft of the American space agency NASA collided with the asteroid Dimorphos. The Hubble Space Telescope has detected the impact of this collision. This spacecraft was deliberately collided with Dimorphos on September 26 last year so that its course could be changed. Astronomers Hubble Using the telescope, large stones have been…
Power cut is not a big deal in India, but in America it is a big deal, especially when the American space agency ‘Nasa’ has to face this problem. This Tuesday i.e. on July 25, there was a power failure in the NASA building in Houston, America. Due to this, communication between the International Space…
Asteroids rotating in space are those rocky pieces which are constantly hovering around the Earth. Asteroids revolve around the Sun, but their orbit often intersects the Earth’s orbit very closely. That is, the asteroids rotate and reach a point where the Earth’s orbit and the asteroid’s orbit pass so close to each other that there…
Surprising images of space are constantly shared by the American space agency NASA. In this series, NASA has shared a spectacular image of the “Necklace Nebula”. It is made of stars like the Sun. Its distance from Earth is about 15,000 light years. It is also called PN G054.203.4. NASA shared this image on its…
Modern science is trying its best to know and understand space. With the help of state-of-the-art telescopes, space scientists are now able to observe celestial bodies located millions of light years away from the solar system, newly formed stars and other astronomical phenomena. Our solar system is present in the Milky Way Galaxy. Our planetary…
Next month, the people of America will be able to see two fascinating astronomical events. This is called a supermoon and will be one of the rarest ‘blue moons’. The Moon will be in a semi-moon shape till August 16 and on August 30, it will be visible as a Blue Moon. It will be…
Today NASA has issued an alert about three asteroids coming towards the Earth. The structure of asteroids is actually said to be similar to that of planets. That means these are also made of minerals etc. They can be as solid and hard as rocks and do not have any particular shape. These may be…
Asteroid is also called minor planet in Hindi language. These are made of mineral substances and have rocky structure. In size they can range from 500 feet to several kilometres. Like other celestial bodies in the solar system, they also revolve around the Sun. But their orbit sometimes comes in the way of the orbit…
Scientists are constantly making new discoveries about space. For this, apart from NASA of America, European Space Agency and China are also working at their level. Meanwhile, NASA has achieved a big success. The space agency has succeeded in re-establishing contact with the Voyager 2 spacecraft. Using its most powerful transmitter, the agency set Voyager’s…
