A team of astronomers from the University of Hawaii at Manoa (Hawaii), the University of California at Berkeley, the University of California and Tennessee State University (USA) has discovered a planetary system made up of three planets that it is only 54 light years distant from Earth. They would, therefore, be the three planets closest to ours.
It is one of the great questions of science: how did life start from inert matter? What ignited the spark? A team from University College London (UCL) points to hydrothermal vents in the seabed, phenomena normally located in volcanically active areas of the planet.
A team of researchers from the National Museum of Natural Sciences (MNCN-CSIC) has verified that methane gas (CH4) disappears in underground environments with a high degree of humidity.
The earthquake in Nepal of magnitude 7.9 according to the Ritcher scale has left devastating consequences. Thousands of people have died and a good part of the Historical Heritage of Nepal has been demolished.
It is a new theropod dinosaur that lived more than 145 million years ago during the Upper Jurassic period. The particular thing about this discovery is that it is a rare specimen: it is a mix of a puma with the hands of a tyrannosaurus that was also not a carnivore but a herbivore. The study, carried out by a team of paleontologists from the "B Rivadavia" Museum of Natural Sciences in Buenos Aires (Argentina) has been published in the journal Nature.
Nepal was surprised this past Saturday, April 25, with a great earthquake that today has a balance of more than 4,000 deaths. The earthquake, with a scale of 7.9 degrees on the Richter scale, would be the equivalent of the explosion of 32,000 atomic bombs on the same area.
The first step was taken by the United Kingdom after approving last February an assisted reproduction technique that was based on the use of the DNA of three people (with eggs from two women and the sperm of a man) to prevent any baby from being born with Communicable diseases, especially those incurable such as Fragile X syndrome, a rare genetic disease.
On April 24, 1990, the NASA and ESA Hubble Space Telescope was launched aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery in a project that started with special enthusiasm since it had been in the minds of the scientific community since the end of the decade of the 70. It started in a free orbit about 600 kilometers from the earth's surface. 25 years have passed and, without a doubt, this telescope has become one of the most prolific and important astronomical missions in the history of mankind.
