NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center has released an hour-long time-lapse video that shows 133 days of the Sun’s life. The video shows the Sun’s chaotic surface, where great loops of plasma arch above the star along magnetic field lines. Sometimes the looping plasma reconnects to the star, and other times it’s ejected into space, creating hazardous space weather. The images are from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO,) a spacecraft launched in 2010 as part of NASA’s Living With a Star (LWS) program. Its primary mission lasted five years, but NASA says the SDO should remain operational until 2030. The images…

A novel hypothesis contends that wormholes, which connect many cosmological regions and even permit time travel, are stable when considered in terms of the Eddington-Finkelstein metric. Wormholes that allow rapid travel to another part of the universe, or even travel in time, may not only be possible but also stable. This is evidenced by a new theory developed by the French physicist Pascal Koiran, who applied the modified Eddington – Finkelstein metric for his calculations. Wormholes and General RelativityThe possibility of the existence of wormholes, or space-time tunnels, that allow you to quickly overcome almost any distance, was predicted on…

Fences are proven to act as a deterrent to intruders and trespassers, improving the security of the structure they surround. As well as keeping uninvited guests out, a fence also stops children and pets from getting out, ensuring that they stay safe when playing in the garden. Our gardens should be private places for us to relax in and enjoy. A fence can help to deliver that privacy and also make a good natural line for trees to be planted along, further enhancing privacy levels. X Most fences are built for purely practical reasons but the fact is that a…
