The space station is additionally a science lab.  Numerous nations cooperated to make it. They additionally cooperate to utilize it. Credit: Wikipedia It is the third brightest object in the sky and can easily be spotted. It looks like a bright fast-moving star like an airplane but it does not blink. It disappears as it enters the earth's shadow. Usually, ISS can be seen in the morning before sunrise or in the evening after sunset. NASA also has a tool: Spot the Station  to find ISS. You can likewise sign up for notifications through email or message. Normally, notifications are conveyed a couple of times every month when the station's orbit is close to your area. There are also other apps to spot ISS like Heavens Above ISS Live Now: link for Android and link for IOS  Both the apps are available in free versions. Credit: Euronews By using a t...

Mars at the Solar Conjunction on October 8

2020 was a great year to see Mars. The red planet showed up like a bursting red dot of fire in our night sky. In any case, despite the fact that Mars began 2021 sparkling brilliantly, it immediately fainted. Furthermore, it proceeded to show up very faint consistently. In August, Mars vanished toward the distant horizon. Presently, Mars is at the solar conjunction, or behind the sun from Earth. Credits : NASA The Solar Conjunction Mars will be closest to the Sun on 8 October 2021 (at about 9:30 IST). At the nearest approach, Mars will show up at a partition of just 0°39' from the Sun, making it absolutely imperceptible for a very long time while it is lost in the Sun's glare.  At around a similar time, Mars will likewise be at its generally far off from the Earth – subsiding to a distance of 2.63 AU – since the two planets will lie on inverse sides of the Solar System.  On the off chance that Mars could be seen as of now, apparently at its littlest and faintest because of its ...

A massive star mysteriously disappeared!

At the point when a monstrous star disappeared, cosmologists expected to discover a supernova in its place. However, there wasn't one. photo credit:  Clipart Library I n a system 75 light-years from Earth, there was a big star called PHL-293B. The star was blistering to such an extent that it sparkles precious stone blue and it sparkles 2.5 multiple times more splendidly than our Sun! It was in the last phases of its life and had utilized the majority of its fuel. Researchers were reading it for quite a long time, yet in 2019 when they attempted to consider it, It was not long at its place. The star vanished!  Stars like this one should flicker out suddenly and completely. They normally finish their life in an incredible, brilliant blast— a supernova —leaving behind a recently framed Black Hole . A few researchers accept that PHL-293B became unnova . It implies that the star fell into itself and turned into a black hole without turning into a supernova Check my previous post:...
