During February, Jupiter will face the Sun by its opposition, which can be seen as a series of mutual eclipses. At the same time, three Jupiter’s moons – Io, Calisto, and Europa – will...
What Causes Scientists to Reconsider the Nemesis Theory?
Extinctions on our planet occur periodically. The regularity of extinctions caused scientists to look for possible explanations. One of them is Nemesis theory and according to it, Nemesis is a dwarf red planet, which...
Facts about Our Sun
The following video contains many facts about the Sun and its storms. Furthermore, it has been explained how sunspots, solar flares, solar tsunamis and other sun related phenomenon appear and behave.
How Huge Is the Most Massive Star in Our Universe
This video explains the term “mass” in our Universe. We can easily grasp how massive are the objects in our Solar System only by comparison. If we take Jupiter, as the biggest and most...
Solar Eruptions
In the solar atmosphere, there are a lot of things happening: solar flares, solar winds and coronal mass ejections (CME). CME often happens above the sunspot groups, where the strong magnetic fields intersect. They...
