planet nine?

Recently I was looking around on the Internet. And today, the question is: is there really a planet nine to our system? Here is the link to its Wikipedia page. I'll research and post on this topic soon enough. If you know anything about PN, please comment below right away :) thanks

Starry Night Astronomy #1

Last night, I took a step outside and looked up at the sky. Beautiful, bright and huge moon in the sky. And, this is really quite odd to me that there was quite a few of stars up there as well. One of the stars was of peculiar size and extremely bright. I walked back inside and brought out my iPad mini. I have an app called Star Walk on it, and it really is an awesomely accurate app. Basically, you point the camera on your device, and it tells you exactly what star/planet that is. As a conclusion, if you live in the west, around January and February you should notice that big bright planet up there too. That planet is Venus.

And, friends, I will be posting as often as I can the Starry Night Astronomy articles.

Just a warning, I will probably not be posting for a day or two. I will definitely try, though. I have traveling recently and will try to find another computer to write on. Thanks for reading, guys.

The Truth Behind Black Holes

Black holes are really crazy, in short. They are so wide, deep and strong. And gravity effects time. These are what we will be talking about today ==>

Black holes are, in a way, invisible. Some people think that little black holes are just floating around in our galaxy. And the black hole at the center of our galaxy is called Sagittarius (Sgr) A*. It's a supermassive black hole, about 100 million times the sun (in size).

If you know a bit about Einstein's discoveries, you may know that he discovered that gravity effects time. And, if humans could get close to a black hole and survive, each minute you would spend there is a 1,000 years on Earth. This is because the gravitational pull force of one of these holes is immensely strong.

Observable Universe Diameter

So, recently I have been doing lots of research on the diameter of the observable universe. It says on the wikipedia page that the diameter is 28.5 gigaparsecs, or gpc. One gigaparsec is 3.26 billion light-years. One light-year is 5.8 trillion miles. So multiply all of them together (28.5 * 3.26 * 5.8) and you get 538.878 billion trillion miles long!! Pretty cool, right? So, basically I was the only one who thought that it was either between 538-557 billion trillion miles long. But, this is awesome, I was checking out a space book and they thought it was 546!!!! Yay, finally someone who thinks nearest to me! See ya then 😀

Welcome!

Hi there! This blog is going to be all about my explorations of space according to the internet, books and my naked eye, and also my love for technology. I will be posting hopefully every day, or at least as often as possible. Every post will be about space or technology. Make sure you check out LiveScience Tech here. They're really cool and will send you cool E-mails. I am also interested in Artificial Intelligence (AI) as well. See you next article!
