Cygnus X-1 black holes are much larger than previously estimated.

There is a black hole located in the area of ​​the swan constellation in the sky from the Earth's surface, known as Cygnus X-1, it was first estimated that it is about 6,070 light years away from our solar system, its mass is its mass in the sun.  Is 14.8 times its mass. But new research suggests that Cygnus X-1 is about 7,200 light years away from Earth, implying that the star in Cygnus X-1 is also brighter, and therefore astronomers believe, Cygnus X-1  Too big. If a star near Cygnus X-1 weighs about 40.6 suns, as researchers had estimated, a black hole would have to be more massive to explain its gravitational tug on such a massive star.  Scientists say the black hole weighs about 21.2 suns - much higher than the previously estimated 14.8 solar masses. According to an online report by astronomers on February 18, if the star-shaped or stellar in the Milky Way is large enough for a black hole, its parent star must have less mass through stellar winds. It is important for...

The CST-100 Starliner will fly for testing on 2 April.

The Orbital Flight Test-2 to be launched on April 2, but NASA and Boeing have not yet set targets for the International Space Station, while carrying the CST-100 Starliner to its flight test before taking the astronauts to the International Space Station  Successfully completed, apart from this, the CST-100 Starliners remain focused on the safety and quality of spacecraft. Preparations are underway for unplanned flight testing of the CST-100 Starliner spacecraft, the test team will be focused on the safety and quality of the CST-100 Starliner spacecraft, and Boeing Company is ready to prove the system, so that astronauts  As part of NASA's commercial crew program, the space station could be prepared to fly to and from it. Teams want more time for CST-100 Starliner spacecraft and hardware processing, so teams are adjusting the launch date. The company recently replaced avionics units that were affected as a result of the power surge due to a ground support equipment...

Successfully landing on Mars of NASA Perseverance Rover and Ingenuity Mars helicopter.

  Successful Landing of Persistence Rover and Ingenuity Mars Helicopter to Mars, Successful Touchdown in Mission Control in NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory at 3:55 pm was confirmed, taken by Perseverance Rover, first image shows,  That Perseverance Rover is perfectly fine, and is ready to travel to Mars. NASA Science Associate Administrator Thomas Zurbuchen says that due to the exciting events of today, it is another step for the first sample from carefully documented locations on another planet to return to Earth. On July 30, 2020, the Fortitude Rover was launched from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, and on February 9, the Fortitude Rover successfully entered Mars orbit. The Perseverance Rover is designed to explore an ancient river delta called the Jazero Crater, the Perseverance Rover with its 2,263-pound (1,026 kg) robotic geologist and astrobiologist in his two-year 'Gizero Crater' The test will have to undergo several weeks before starting the science ...

Depiction of the bipolar planetary nebula by the Hubble telescope.

About 32,000 light-years from Earth is a bipolar planetary nebula, known as M1-63, located in the small southern constellation of Scutum. Astronomers believe that such a nebula is formed when the star in its center sheds a large amount of material from its outer layers, leaving a brilliant cloud of gas and dust. At the center of the dipole nebula is a binary system of stars, capable of forming butterfly-like shapes. This is because the material of the shedding star is funneled towards its poles, with the help of a companion, the nebula forms a typical double-lobed structure, such as M1-63. NASA / ESA Hubble Space Telescope filters image M1-63 through F200W, F350W, F502W, and F814w, new image of M1-63 shows ultraviolet, near-infrared and optical parts of the spectrum in Hubble's wide field. This is illustrated with the help of Camera 3 (WFC3) comments.
