Skygazers, get ready to head outside and spot the supermoon, coming in October. NASA says that a supermoon is any moon within 90% of perigee, which occurs when the moon is closest to Earth. During this time, the moon is approximately 226,000 miles away from our planet, roughly 25,000 miles closer than when it is in apogee. The full moon appears on Oct. 6, and you shouldn't have any trouble seeing it. It'll be the first of four consecutive supermoons, one each month, as the moon continues its el

Here’s How to Deflect a Dangerous Asteroid Without It Totally Backfiring

gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2025-09-28 14:30:14

In September 2022, NASA deliberately crashed a spacecraft into an asteroid, successfully altering the space rock’s trajectory. The orbital shove demonstrated an asteroid deflection technique that could come in handy if a massive rock were headed in Earth’s direction. As it turns out, however, deflecting a potentially threatening asteroid is only half the battle. Striking an asteroid for deflection purposes could send it back on a collision course with Earth, merely delaying the planet-shatterin

The Sun Is Entering a New and Unexpected Active Stage

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-09-28 22:35:48

When solar activity reached an all-time low in 2008, astronomers reasonably figured the Sun was entering into a period of historically low activity. They were wrong. New research published September 8 in The Astrophysical Journal Letters suggests that 2008 marked the beginning of a steady increase in solar activity. To be clear, this “reversal” extends beyond the well-known 11-year cycles the Sun typically follows. Specifically, the researchers found a slow uptick in many of the Sun’s key “vita

This activity, which continued when temperatures dropped to -15 C, is the coldest-ever movement recorded for a eukaryotic cell. The diatoms move through a type of gliding, which is enabled by a combination of mucus and molecular motors that are similar to systems seen in human muscles. Given how abundant these di
