The Alien Life Mark-Seeking Observatory Were Damaged


One of the most prominent astronomical observatories in the world was damaged.

On Monday (10/8), a 3-inch (76 mm) thick cable at the Arecibo Observartorium broke - destroying a 30-meter reflector dish from a radio telescope in Puerto Rico, reported by Science Alert.

The Arecibo Observatory recently reopened after a temporary closure due to tropical storm Isaias. At that time, the cable supporting the metal platform also broke.

Now, the observatory must be closed again. According to the University of Central Florida, co-operator of the telescope, the technicians are currently examining the damage. It is not clear how the cable broke and whether this incident was related to Hurricane Isaias.

It is known that astronomers often use telescopes at the Arecibo Observatory to study dangerous asteroids as they fly past Earth. This is done to identify space rocks on the path of the collision early so hopefully they can intervene before they hit Earth.

In addition, scientists are also using Arecibo to look for signs of extraterrestrial life. In 1974, Arecibo displayed the most powerful signal Earth has ever sent to communicate with aliens.

Then, in 2016, the telescope detected its first fast radio burst - a sign of a mysterious signal from outer space.

The cable break also damaged six to eight panels in the Gregorian Dome: the part that focuses its radiation on points in space that astronomers want to study.

"We have a team of experts to deal with this situation," explained Fransisco Cordova, director of the Arecibo Observatory.

"Our focus is to ensure the safety of staff and protect the facilities and equipment at the observatory so that it can be fully operational as quickly as possible and to return to help scientists around the world," he concluded.

The Distance of the Earth and the Moon Farther Each Year, Is That a Sign of the Moon Will Disappear?

 Friends must know that Earth has a natural satellite that we know as the Moon. Just like other celestial bodies, Earth and Moon also have a distance that separates the two celestial bodies. Earth and other planets have orbits that are pathways for their rotation and revolution in the order of the solar system. However, shocking news comes from observations that show that the Earth and the Moon are getting farther away each year. According to Cornell University, every year the distance of the Earth and the Moon increases by 3.8 centimeters. Indeed, this change in distance is very small, but many think this is a sign that the Moon will disappear and leave Earth. Actually, why is the distance of the Earth and the Moon getting farther away every year? We refer to the following explanation, let's! The first time it was known the distance between the Earth and the Moon increased each year was when Neil Armstrong and the team left a reflector when landing on the Moon ...

Astronomers Have Released The Largest 3D Map Of The Universe

The Sloan Sigital Sky Survey (SDSS) has published an astonishing analysis of the universe. Published in 23 papers, the project, called the Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS), measured more than two million galaxies and quasars. The end result is the largest three-dimensional map of the universe. Although previous observations have mapped the closest galaxy to the Milky Way and studied it in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), there are gaps in the data. “We know the ancient history of the formation of the universe and its final expansion. However, there are gaps in those 11 billion years, ”said Kyle Dawson, lead researcher at the University of Utah. “For five years, we have worked to fill that void. We use existing information to find out the great advances in cosmology in the last decade, "he added.

After Becoming Captive to the Aquarium, Two Beluga Whales Are Returned to the Sea

A pair of beluga whales, named Little Gray and Little White, enjoy a taste of the ocean for the first time since 2011. This is thanks to a relocation project that has been fought for years. After being captured at a young age off the coast of Russia and spending time as captives in a Chinese aquarium, the two beluga whales finally gained freedom. They are now living in a safe haven in Klettsvik Bay, Iceland, reported by CNN. “It's been a long journey for Little Gray and Little White. The process is not easy, but it is the result of our work and love, ”said Audrey Padgett, manager of Beluga Whale Sanctuary. Also Read: Climate Crisis, Arctic Ice Threatened to Disappear in 2035 In 2011, Little Gray and Little White were transferred from a research center in Russia to Changfeng Ocean World in Shanghai. The following year, the aquarium was purchased by Merlin Entertainment, a company that opposes the breeding of whales and dolphins. From there, the idea emerged to return t...
