Supernova Remnants Found in Oceanic Samples, Scientists Look to Moon
Scientists have identified supernova debris in deep-sea sediments, including a rare plutonium isotope linked to a kilonova. Researchers believe a neutron star collision occurred nearly 10 million years ago, scattering radioactive material across space. To validate this theory, they plan to analyze lunar soil, which remains undisturbed by Earth's ge...

ISS Captures Rare Gigantic Jet, a Massive Upward Lightning Over New Orleans
A newly released image taken from the ISS captures a rare gigantic jet of lightning extending over 50 miles above New Orleans. The photo, dated November 19, 2024, was discovered in the Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth database. These rare upward-shooting discharges occur when storm cloud charge layers invert, propelling energy skyward. The...

Astronaut Captures Rare ‘Gigantic Jet’ Lightning Extending 50 Miles Above Earth
A rare ‘gigantic jet’ lightning was captured by an astronaut aboard the ISS on November 19, 2024. This massive bolt extended nearly 50 miles into the atmosphere, likely originating from a thunderstorm near New Orleans. The image, later discovered in NASA’s archives, highlights an unusual lightning event that travels upwards instead of strikin...

Primordial Helium-3 May Be Locked in Earth’s Core, Study Finds
Helium-3, an isotope formed during the solar system's birth, may be trapped in Earth's core, a study suggests. Researchers at the University of Tokyo found that helium can mix with iron at extreme heat and pressure, allowing it to remain in Earth's solid core. This discovery could help determine how quickly the planet formed, with a rapid formation...
