    How the Kriptronnian Race Can Willed The Power Of The Sun

    The sun is a very good source of energy with all its different raise: Baeda rays are good to channel to use for heat ray vision which is focusing the Baeda energy in a soled beam through the eyes. first us Kryptronnians absorb the energy in are body and thin we channel it thru are eyes in a...

    Ever wondered why Mars is red? One scientist thinks he knows (and it could happen on Earth, too)

    UK Daily Mail April 4, 2011 Mars has not always been red. At least that is the theory proposed by a scientist who has discovered a reason as to how the red planet got its rosy colour. According to Dr John Brandednberg, about 180 million years ago, a planet-shattering yet naturally occurring...

    Thunderstorms Make Antimatter

    Scientists using NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope have detected beams of antimatter produced above thunderstorms on Earth, a phenomenon never seen before. Scientists think the antimatter particles were formed inside thunderstorms in a terrestrial gamma-ray flash (TGF) associated with...

    Famous Crab Nebula Shoots Off Mysterious Flares

    One of the most well-known celestial objects still has some tricks up its sleeve, according to a new discovery of surprising gamma-ray flares coming from the famous Crab Nebula. The Crab, long-considered such a steady celestial light that it was used to calibrate other sources, has now had...

    NASA’s Fermi Telescope Finds Giant Structure in our Galaxy

    NASA Nov 10, 2010 WASHINGTON — NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has unveiled a previously unseen structure centered in the Milky Way. The feature spans 50,000 light-years and may be the remnant of an eruption from a supersized black hole at the center of our galaxy. “What we see are two...

    Huge Bubbles Found at Milky Way's Heart Could Signal a Black Hole Eruption

    Scientists have detected two gigantic bubbles of high-energy radiation spilling out from the Milky Way's center that may have erupted from a supermassive black hole. The mysterious structures each span 25,000 light-years across, and are emitting gamma rays, the highest-energy wavelength of...

    Neutron stars may be too weak to power some gamma-ray bursts

    A gamma-ray burst (GRB) is an immensely powerful blast of high-energy light thought to be generated by a collapsing star in a distant galaxy, but what this collapse leaves behind has been a matter of debate. A new analysis of four extremely bright bursts observed by NASA's Fermi satellite...

    Newborn black holes may add power to many exploding stars

    Astronomers studying two exploding stars, or supernovae, have found evidence that the blasts received an extra boost from newborn black holes. The supernovae were found to emit jets of particles traveling at more than half the speed of light. Previously, the only catastrophic events known to...
