Top 4 New Astronomy Discoveries in 2020
Top 4 New Astronomy
Discoveries in 2020
A lot is going on
around us in the
space. Every day,
space centres
worldwide make
discoveries and
breakthroughs by
decoding some
strange signals
from the nearby
stars or
launching new
rockets into the
geostationary
orbits.
New Strange Signals
Received from Proxima
Centauri
Recently, scientists
have received some
strange narrowband
signals from the
nearest star to the
Earth- the Proxima
Centauri. The
wavelength recorded
was around 982.002
MHz, which is indeed
very weird because
stars and other
heavenly bodies
usually emit
broadband signals.
Jupiter and Saturn to Come
Closest to Each Other in
History
The significant
conjunction- where
both Jupiter and Saturn
will appear as a single
planet in the sky is a
miraculous
astronomical event in
the past 400 years.
The planets will be so
close to each other
they the conjunction
will appear to be the
brightest star in the
sky, as can be seen
from the ISS space
station live feed.
The First Image of Sunspots
Captured with a New Solar
Telescope
The new solar
telescope- DKIST-
has provided us
with a brilliant
picture of the
sunspot, the first of
its kind. The image
is captured with
very high
resolution, and
that’s why the
sunspot has a
diameter of around
16,000 km in the
original picture.
Fast Radio Bursts Received
from Within the Milky Way
Galaxy
The fast radio bursts
are nothing but high
energetic pulses
usually received from
a far-of distance in
space but only for
some time because
evaluating those
signals has been
difficult. For the first
time, scientists have
received radio bursts
from within the Milky
Way Galaxy, which is
a wonder in itself.
