Scientists don’t know what dark matter is. But they have some ideas of what it isn’t. And they took a big step in ruling out some possibilities with the release of a study last year. Dark matter produces no energy – the reason it’s described as “dark.” But we know it’s there because its gravity pulls on the visible matter around it. In fact, it appears to make up about 85 percent of all the matter in the universe. The leading idea says dark matter consists

For 50 years, the original flight film from NASA’s Apollo missions remained locked away in a vault in Houston, Texas.  Enter Andy Saunders His lifelong obsession with NASA and the Apollo missions and his love of photography eventually turned into a one of a kind book called Apollo Remastered. Andy is a photographer and  imaging specialist, who used a unique technique known as ‘stacking’ to digitally remaster the original flight film from the Apollo Missions. The result was a best selling

Join Martin Willis in a groundbreaking conversation with Jensine Andresen, PhD, a scholar whose work bridges religion, philosophy, ethics, and the mysteries of UFO/UAP and extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI). In this interview, we explore: What “Acculturation with ETI” means and why it matters for humanity’s future. How UAP and ETI discussions intersect with geopolitics, including the risks and realities tied to nuclear weapons. Why our current data-centric and militarized approach to the phenomenon

At first glance, the dwarf planet Ceres doesn’t seem like a friendly home for life. It’s small, dark, and scarred by impact craters. Yet a deeper look presents a more optimistic picture. It has more water than any body in the inner solar system besides Earth. It has an abundance of organic compounds – the chemical building blocks of life. And it should be warm enough below the surface to sustain microscopic life. Ceres is the largest member of the asteroid belt – a wide band

New research suggests that Uranus’ moon Ariel may have once harbored a massive subsurface ocean over 100 miles deep. By analyzing fractures and ridges on its surface, scientists linked these features to tidal stresses from Ariel’s past eccentric orbit.The findings raise the possibility that Ariel—and perhaps Miranda—are twin ocean worlds, offering an exciting target for future space missions.
