Anatomy Of A Cosmic Snake Reveals Structure Of Distant Galaxies

Published 13th November 2017



We have a fair understanding of the fundamental mechanisms that regulate star formation in galaxies, from the interstellar matter to the diffuse clouds distributed in space, whose gravitational contraction leads to the birth of stars within large stellar clusters. But observations of distant galaxies have questioned this picture, the size and mass of these distant stellar nurseries largely exceeding that of their local counterparts. An international team of astrophysicists led by the Universities of Geneva (UNIGE), Switzerland, for the observations and Zurich (UZH) for the simulations has tackled this inconsistency, which seems to question our knowledge of star formation when we study the early Universe, far away in time and space. They have found the first answers thanks to the observation of the Cosmic Snake. Their study is published in the journal Nature Astronomy.

T.L. Keller | Modeling & Building The Secret Space Program

Recorded 8th November 2017 | Published 13th November 2017

T. L. Keller, a longtime friend of UPARS LA, will be a presenting a history of reports of very large, cigar-shaped spacecraft that have been seen in the skies and in orbit around Earth. Are these craft of extraterrestrial origin --or are they man-made? Keller will discuss the reasons why he believes this is a real phenomenon, and why he believes in the existence of a secret international, human-constructed space fleet. Taking us through a logical progression of factual, first-hand experiences, Keller will present the case that this fleet of spacecraft carriers is now in operation. This talk will also include discussion of a proposed construction methodology for these spacecraft, as described by Gary McKinnon and Corey Goode. He will identify the industries capable of such a manufacturing process and explain them in some detail. Keller will then share a hypothesis that he has developed as a result of his research into these areas. T. L. Keller has had a lifelong interest in space exploration, extraterrestrial intelligence and human evolution. Mr. Keller is a graduate of the UCLA School of Engineering and subsequently had a successful career as an aerospace engineer. He holds a Masters in Business Administration from UC Berkeley and a Masters of Science degree in Management Science from USC. He was a computer systems analyst at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and while there, developed a computer system for managing resources for JPL's interplanetary exploration projects. This system was used for resource management during the Mariner, Viking and Voyager missions. Keller’s experience in construction and aerospace led him to develop the Space MAX: Space Station Construction Simulator, a project management simulator used in the construction of the first commercial space station. Mr. Keller has also worked for Douglas Aircraft and British Aerospace. He is the author of The Total Novice’s Guide To UFOs (2010) and The Total Novice’s Guide To The Secret Space Program (2017)

Biggest Yellow 'Hypergiant' Star Spotted

Published 14th November 2017

ESO’s Very Large Telescope Interferometer has revealed the largest yellow star — and one of the ten largest stars found so far. This hypergiant has been found to measure more than 1300 times the diameter of the Sun, and to be part of a double star system, with the second component so close that it is in contact with the main star. Observations spanning over sixty years, some from amateur observers, also indicate that this rare and remarkable object is changing very rapidly and has been caught during a very brief phase of its life.

Using ESO’s Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI), Olivier Chesneau (Observatoire de la Côte d’Azur, Nice, France) and an international team of collaborators have found that the yellow hypergiant star HR 5171 A [1] is absolutely huge — 1300 times the diameter of the Sun and much bigger than was expected [2]. This makes it the largest yellow star known. It is also in the top ten of the largest stars known — 50% larger than the famous red supergiant Betelgeuse — and about one million times brighter than the Sun.

“The new observations also showed that this star has a very close binary partner, which was a real surprise,” says Chesneau. “The two stars are so close that they touch and the whole system resembles a gigantic peanut.”

Yellow hypergiants are very rare, with only a dozen or so known in our galaxy — the best-known example being Rho Cassiopeiae. They are among the biggest and brightest stars known and are at a stage of their lives when they are unstable and changing rapidly. Due to this instability, yellow hypergiants also expel material outwards, forming a large, extended atmosphere around the star.

Despite its great distance of nearly 12 000 light-years from Earth, the object can just about be seen with the naked eye [4] by the keen-sighted. HR 5171 A has been found to be getting bigger over the last 40 years, cooling as it grows, and its evolution has now been caught in action. Only a few stars are caught in this very brief phase, where they undergo a dramatic change in temperature as they rapidly evolve.

Zwicky Transient Facility Opens Its Eyes To The Volatile Cosmos

Published 14th November 2017

A new robotic camera with the ability to capture hundreds of thousands of stars and galaxies in a single shot has taken its first image of the sky, an event astronomers refer to as "first light." The recently installed camera is part of a new automated sky-survey project called the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), based at Caltech's Palomar Observatory located in the mountains near San Diego. Every night, ZTF will scan a large portion of the Northern sky, discovering objects that erupt or vary in brightness, including exploding stars (also known as supernovas), stars being munched on by black holes, and asteroids and comets. "There's a lot of activity happening in our night skies," says Shrinivas (“Shri”) Kulkarni, the principal investigator of ZTF and the George Ellery Hale Professor of Astronomy and Planetary Science at Caltech. "In fact, every second, somewhere in the universe, there's a supernova that's exploding. Of course, we can't see them all, but with ZTF we will see up to tens of thousands of explosive transients every year over the three-year lifetime of the project."

What Is Eternal Inflation? Universes Within Universes

Published 14th November 2017

In order to get the large scale structure of the Universe we see today, cosmologists have proposed the idea of inflation, that the Universe expanded an enormous amount in the earliest moments. But if inflation really happened, then it has even stranger implications for the nature of the Universe and the search for multiverses.

The phenomena consists almost entirely of ‘Pulsating orb’s of light”—unusual lights seen changing colors, converging, and separating over the lake. Stories of the unexplained phenomena date back over 150 years to the indigenous North American Indian Tribes.
