Moroccan meteorite hunters and dealers have established themselves as key players in the international meteorite market, with over a thousand documented discoveries since 1999. A new book by Helen Gordon, "The Meteorites: Encounters with Outer Space and Deep Time," details this remarkable development. At......
The Doomsday Clock has been moved forward by one second, now standing at 89 seconds before midnight, indicating an increased risk of global disaster. This shift marks the first change in three years, reflecting ongoing threats from nuclear weapons, climate change, bioweapons, pandemics, and disruptive......
Astronomers have uncovered a remarkable phenomenon on the exoplanet WASP-127b, where jet-stream winds reach astonishing speeds of 20,500 miles per hour (33,000 km/h). These supersonic winds, the fastest ever detected on any known planet, circle the gaseous giant’s equator at velocities far surpassing......
The world of astronomy has a golden rule: never look directly at the sun. This warning echoes through public lectures and stargazing events, as unfiltered sunlight can permanently damage human retinas and optical equipment. Yet, in a remarkable departure from this principle, NASA once deliberately pointed......
A newly reported mosasaur species discovered in Morocco's phosphate mines has come under scrutiny, as paleontologists question whether its distinctive tooth crowns were artificially attached to the skull. The specimen, dubbed Carinodens acrodon, was found in the Sidi Chennane phosphate mine in Khouribga......
SpaceX is preparing for an ambitious seventh test flight of its Starship megarocket, scheduled for Monday at 11 PM French time from Texas.

In a groundbreaking discovery from Morocco's phosphate mines, scientists have identified a new species of mosasaur that offers fresh insights into the evolution of these fascinating marine reptiles. The newly described species, named Carinodens acrodon, lived approximately 67 million years ago during......
The National Center for Scientific and Technical Research (CNRST) in Morocco has unveiled an updated version of its "Scientific Production Barometer," which highlights the country's progress in various academic and scientific fields. The updated barometer encompasses a diverse range of......
Astronomers are anticipating significant scientific breakthroughs in 2025, with advances spanning from fundamental physics to cutting-edge space observation technologies. University of Chicago's Professor Wendy Freedman anticipates potential insights into dark matter and aims to investigate apparent......
The Parker Solar Probe, the fastest man-made object ever created, is set to make its closest approach to the Sun today, reaching speeds of 435,000 miles per hour. This extraordinary velocity means the spacecraft can travel from London to New York in just 29 seconds. The probe's impressive speed......
SpaceX marked another successful mission in its space operations portfolio with the deployment of 30 satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.
