Detection of DNA in space

If there is life on Mars, it's not so far-fetched to believe that the Martian life may have in common genetic roots of life on Earth.  More than 3.5 billion years ago, a lot of space meteors ricocheted around the solar system, passing the same between the two young planets. This galactic game of ping-pong left its traces on the Earth and on Mars, maybe then creates a common genetic foundation between the two planets.

Evidence of the new planets?

New calculations show that a sufficient concentration of gas in the disk around a young star can lead to the process of coalescence of space dust, forming a ring, and creating ways that resemble those formed in the process of neoplasm’s.

Gravity pulls the cosmic dust and debris of stones. After they were together in small groups gather even more space stuff and so they travel,

At the tail of the heliosphere found surprising image

Spacecraft NASA Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) recent initiates the first images showing the whole entire "leeward" side of the sun, the structure of which was a surprise to scientists.

When the sun moves through our galaxy, the Milky Way behind it reaches the "tail" of solar particles, like the tail of a comet. Previously, 

British Astronomers have first color of exoplanets

British astronomers have for the first time were able to determine the color of exoplanets. With the help of a telescope "Hubble" researchers from Oxford University Conducted a spectral analysis of the stars in the constellation Vulpecula, and where able to calculate the color of the planet orbiting HD 189733 b. Details referring to the still unpublished article for the magazine scientists Astrophysical Journal Letters lead Nature News.

Since the star is too far away, 63 light years from Earth,

Orion: multipurpose spacecraft system

Orion - a multi-purpose reusable manned spacecraft currently is in the development stage. The first test flight is scheduled for September 2014. This ship, in addition to delivery of cargo and astronauts to the ISS, is also intended to fly beyond the near-Earth space: the moon, asteroids, Mars and beyond. Orion will be the first such device since the Apollo missions.

Triple-star with potentially habitable planets Gliese 667

Here is a great result of the new surveillance triple star system Gliese 667 from astrophotographer Ephraim Morales from the observatory Jaicoa, located in Puerto Rico. Recently found that the system of one of these stars, 667 C, consists of seven candidates for the title of the planets revolving around it. If all the seven planets are confirmed, then in the habitable zone of this system will be based on three super-Earths, 

Space station adjusts Its position to watch the Sun

The sun shines and illuminates our planet by our scientists, while those watching our nearest star in an attempt to deepen the understanding of solar activity and its importance to our planet. Unique data obtained from studies of the Sun, will help scientists to replenish the treasury of our knowledge of the Earth's atmosphere and climate. June 30 was the second occasion in the history of space exploration, when the International Space Station has changed his position to assist in the new study, giving astronomers a chance continuous review of our star.
