UNHEARD SCIENCE AND FACTS

-

Hello guys, today I am going to tell you about some unheard Science and Facts about the Universe which are knowledgeable and interesting.



1. Which was the first Atom of the Universe?

As we all know that Universe was formed nearly 13,700,000,000 years ago owing to the "Big Bang" explosion. That time, Universe was so hot that formation of any atom was not possible. Nearly after 3,80,000 years when temparature began decreasing then the nuclei present in the Universe started capturing the electrons and the formation of atoms began. Till now we are not sure that which atom formed first but HELIUM-4 or HELIUM-3 or an isotope of hydrogen, DEUTERIUM, these three are the oldest known atoms of the Universe. If we talk about the first formed molecule, it was surely HELIUM HYDRIDE which was formed with the combination of hydrogen and helium. 

2. Revolution of Our Solar System.

Do you know that our Solar System is 450,000,000 years old and our Milky Way is 13,500,000,000 years old and as the Earth revolves around the Sun and the Moon revolves around the Earth in the same way our Sun revolves around the star Sagittarius A, centre of Milky Way with a speed of 230km/s (144m/s) and it takes 230,000,000 years complete one revolution. According to it, since its formation, sun has only taken 20 rounds of the Milky Way Galaxy.

3. Our DNA.

The DNA (De-oxy Ribonucleic Acid) are the molecules present in our body which carries the genetic information. DNA has Polynucleotide Chains which are coiled together and form a double helix structure, well the fact is, if we join all the Polynucleotide chains of a person then the length of it will be around 50,000,000,000 km (31,070,000,000 mi), in this length you can go from Earth to Pluto and return and continue this activity 13 times. So just think that our DNA stores how much information in it. 

4. Haumea– A Dwarf Planet

Haumea is a Dwarf Planet and a very strange object present in our Solar System. It is located beyond the Orbit of Neptune. It was discovered in 2004 from the Palomar Laboratory of America. Its features are so distinct that your mind will be shocked after reading.



1. Its shape is very different, it is not spherical but long and elongated.

2. It has two moons named Hi'iaka and Namaka.

3. It rotates on its Axis in about 3.9 hours only. In this way it is the fastest rotating  object in our Solar System among all the large objects.

4. In 2017, it passes through a star and we observed it clearly and came to know that it has a ring around it like Saturn. 

5. Eye Of The God.

Do you know that 655 light years away in Aquarius Constellation, Helix Nebula is present which looks like an human eye. Scientists named it as the EYE OF THE GOD. There are some other Nebulas also present in the Universe which looks like human eye like Cat's Nebula and Ray Nebula.

LIFE CYCLE OF A STAR!

Image
Outlined below are the many steps involved in a stars evolution, from its formation in nebula, to its death as a white dwarf or neutron star. NEBULA A Nebula is a cloud of gas(hydrogen) and dust in space. Nebulae are the birth places of stars. There are different types of nebula. An emission nebula e.g. such as Orion nebula, glows brightly because the gas in it is energized by the stars that have already formed within it. In a Reflection Nebula, starlight reflects on the grains of dust in a nebula. The nebula surrounding the Pleiades Cluster is typical of a reflection nebula. Dark Nebula also exist. These are dense clouds of molecular hydrogen which partially or completely absorb the light from the stars behind them e.g. the Horsehead nebula in Orion. Planetary Nebula are the outer layers of a star that are lost when the star changes from a red giant to a white dwarf.   Shop now at Amazon Pantry at best deals Amazon Pantry STAR A star is a luminous globe of gas producing its own he...

GRAVITY

GRAVITY What is Space Time Continuum? Time is not completely separate from and independent of space, but is combined with it to form an object called space-time. It is a matter of common experience that one can describe the position of a point in space by three numbers, or coordinates. For instance, one can say that a point in a room is 7 feet from 1 wall, 3 feet from another and 5 feet above the floor. Or one could specify that a point was at a certain latitude and longitude and a certain height above sea level. One would not specify the position of the moon in terms of kilometres north and kilometres west of a building on Earth and some feet above sea level. Instead, one might describe it in terms of distance from the Sun, distance from the plane of the orbits of the planets, and the angle between the line joining the Moon to the Sun and the line joining the Sun to a nearby star such as Alpha Centauri. Even these coordinates would not be of much use in describing the position of the ...

THE SOLAR SYSTEM

Here are some amazing elements that our SOLAR SYSTEM consists.  1. Sun The Sun is a star present at the centre of the Solar System. It is spherical in shape and is emmiting huge amount of light and infrared radiations with heat due to the nuclear fusion reactions in its core. It is a type of G-Typemain Sequence Star with a life span of approximately 10 billion years.  2. Planets Our Solar System consists of eight planets named Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, ordered in their respective distances from the Sun.  The smallest and the nearest planet to the is Mercury and the largest planet is Jupiter. The hottest planet is Venus and the coldest is Neptune. Listed below is the time taken by every planet to rotate around its Axis and revolve around the Sun.

CRAZY SCIENCE EXPERIMENTS IN SPACE SHUTTLE

Outlined below are some of the coolest Space Shuttle Science Experiments: 1. Microbes Get More Virulent In Microgravity. Experiments aboard the space shuttle have shown that salmonella bacteria, a   common and sometimes deadly source of food poisoning, get more virulent in space. Scientist believe that the bacteria get ramped up because space flight tricks them into behaving as if they're inside the human gut. The shuttle missions also identified dozens of genes that seem to be involved in the hyper-virulence, as well as "master switch" protein that regulates many of these genes.  2. Space Roses Smell Different. It sounds like some sort of symbolic or ceremonial gesture: The Shuttle Discovery carried a single rose to orbit on its STS-95 mission in 1998. But there was science, and business, behind the move. The company International Flavours and Fragrances (IFF) wanted to see how microgravity altered the sweet and familiar scent of a Rose — and if a new perfume component m...

Recently, after the testing of the samples brought from the Red Planet (Mars), NASA said that there are some possibilities of organic salt present on Mars. After this research of NASA our understanding of Mars's surface will improve. Also this will help in finding life forms in Mars as well as on different Planets. In an interview NASA said that organic compound and salt traces on Mars could be a mark of geographical processes or bacterias, like that of found by the Curiosity Rover. Salts Could Be Made from Geological Processes..... According to one research, the iron, calcium and magnesium oxalate and acetate affected by radiation and oxidation together can combine to mix up with the organic salts. These salts could be made from Geological Processes or these are the remains of micro organisms. Possibilities Of Life On Red Planet Increases.... According to NASA traces of salt could increase the possibility of organic matter present on Mars. On Earth as well such type of life forms ...
