KILONOVA
When a star dies it would go into a supernova and depending on its mass its core either collapses into a black hole or a neutron star or a white dwarf. A kilonova is 1000 times brighter than nova (but not much brighter than a supernova). It is usually produced when two massive stellar core […]

The universe is a wonderful place to be. Feisty yet fasted, Chaotic yet Calm, Life taking yet life-giving. Today, let’s talk about one of the most puzzling objects we know in the universe. Millions of celestial objects are swirling across the cosmos right now; black holes are one among them. A black hole is a […]

Bloom up your imagination. Consider a star which has nuclear fusion going on. Time to break things down. Now consider a small part of the star; assume the smallest part of the reaction which causes nuclear fusion. In this case, the hydrogen atoms. These atoms collide/ fuse with each other to produce heavier and heavier […]

There is an enormous list when we try to talk about unsolved problems in physics. From multiverse to supersymmetry, from an atom in a universe to the universe in an atom, many unsolved problems are yet to be solved. A number of scientists and physicists over decades of work have been able to solve many. […]

From the time when Galileo used his first telescope to observe the moons of Jupiter to the time where we use telescopes to capture and observe the first lights just after the big bang. The advancements of telescopes took a huge boost in these recent years. There are various types of telescopes which use different […]

One among the celestial entity, which is widely heard, Blackholes. What are Blackholes? How was it discovered? What led someone to throw a hunch like something like this exists? Do they exist? On the other hand, are they just a myth? The idea of a body so massive that even light could not escape was […]

Millions of celestial objects are swirling across the cosmos right now; black holes are one among them. A black hole is a region of place in space, which has an extremely high gravitational force where not even light can escape. The term black hole was coined by John Wheeler, a theoretical physicist. The idea that […]
