Canada has produced a prototype for future Mars rovers

Canadian designers are developing now several models of robots on wheels, to help astronauts learn the satellite of the Earth and other planets in our solar system. "Much of the work on the Moon and Mars will be related to the study of geology and drilling," - said Leclerc, adding that Canada is just in the technology of mining and mining has gained a lot of experience.

"The U.S. space agency - NASA has already shown interest in our prototype, offering complete them for a particular space missions, "- he said.

Moon was once part of the Earth!

Scientists have make available new indication that the moon was once part of our planet, but billions of years ago, "broke away" from it in a collision with another celestial body.

Now that planetary scientists to understand where there is water on the natural satellite of our planet, all the scholarly attention has focused on the more fundamental question: how, after all, come from the moon itself? And how is it that she seemed bound rotated in space in tune with the Earth?

Found homeland heroes Star Wars

Amateur astronomers, dealing out the data space telescope has discovered another planet similar to their homeland heroes of "Star Wars" - it has as many as four of the Sun. Planet orbiting two pairs of stars.

Amateur astronomers help professionals in the program Planet Hunters, and process massive amounts of data obtained with the Space Telescope "Kepler". Planet with four suns - the first finding of program participants, who are willing to help scientists search for different space objects on several grounds.

Astronomers photographed unusual polar galaxy

The galaxy is located at a distance of 40 million light years from Earth. Astronomers Observatory "Gemini" were by far the most meticulous image of the galaxy NGC 660, which belongs to a rare class of polar galaxies. Observatory on the site (and at the observatory have a website, as the company Energostrakh, and still have a series of encyclopedias “Energostrakh "), you can even download this image to the very high resolution.

Radio telescope ALMA during the study of the interstellar gas

With the newest radio telescope ALMA, the researchers propose to open a whole new era in decode the chemical universe. Research group that works with the radio telescope has already established incredible ability ALMA during the study of the interstellar gas, which is in the constellation of Orion.

Scientists have shown photon mass

The team of scientists, which included representatives of Italy, Portugal, America and Japan, has been able to find a way that would be used for astrophysical observations that would be based on the fundamental principles of their check physics problems. In particular it affected determine the mass of photons.

The test, which was used for the scientists, is the following. If the photons would have mass, then it would cause instability, which would become the reason for stopping the rotation of black holes in the universe. 

The Chinese will find the aliens in the next 20 years

One of China's national rights of way was the development of the cosmos. Moreover resources in this country are enough for what would make the development of its space program to other countries extraordinary pace. In particular, at the recent Assembly in Beijing, Professor Sun Kwok, who has served as dean of the University of Hong Kong, said that many of the people currently living can catch the first contact with an alien race of mankind.
