We believed, even claimed, for a long time that we aren’t in the world alone and scientists said that there could be hundreds of advanced alien societies not far from earth a few months ago. Some might also be too advanced to interact with us. A paper reported in the science journal The Astrophysical Journal last June reports that at least 36 extraterrestrial cultures are extremely advanced in the Milky Way, according to scientific experts from the University of Nottingham, Great Britain. But they go on to claim that the calculation is still conservative: it’s based on the premise that…

A team of astronomers have used a model of earthquakes to understand glitches in the timing of pulsars. Their results suggest that pulsars may have interiors that are far stranger than can be imagined. Pulsars are perhaps the most accurate timekeepers in the entire universe. The pulsars themselves are really rapidly spinning neutron stars. Neutron stars are ultra-dense balls of atomic matter, usually no bigger than a few miles across with a mass a few times that of the Sun. When these neutron stars spin they blast out beams of radiation that draw circles around the sky. If the Earth…
Over over 50% of high mass stars reside in multiple star systems. But due to their complex orbital interactions, physicists have a difficult time understanding just how stable and long-lived these systems are. Recently a team of astronomers applied machine learning techniques to simulations of multiple star systems and found a new way that stars in such systems can arrange themselves. Classical mechanics has a notorious problem known as the three-body problem. While Newton’s laws of gravity can easily handle calculations of the forces between two objects and their subsequent evolution, there is no known analytic solution when you include…

When Bianca Aiono Robertson discovered she was expecting triplets, she hoped to birth them naturally. That was despite feeling somewhat terrified at the prospect of having three babies and coming off a marathon 43-hour labour with her first. Having undergone fertility treatment to have a second child with her husband Peter, a multiple birth was always a possibility. However, the Sunshine Coast mum had only really entertained the idea of twins, so was a bit taken aback when she learned triplets were on the way. “(I felt) a mixture of amazement, and terror – it was surreal,” she said. Scans…
