Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun It is named after the Roman god of war The landmass of Mars is very similar to Earth but due to the difference in gravity you could jump three times higher there than you can here Mars is mountainous and hosts the tallest mountain known in the Solar System called Olympus Mons, which is three times higher than Everest Mars is considered to be the second most habitable planet after Earth It takes the planet 687 Earth days to orbit the Sun So far, there has been 39 missions to Mars but only 16 of these have been successful … [Read more...] about Proof of ancient alien life on Mars may have been completely destroyed, scientists warn

Venus is nearly the same size as Earth with a diameter of 12,104 km compared to Earth's 12,742 km Venus is so hot that the surface temperature can reach 471 °C It rotates in the opposition direction to most planets, potentially due to an asteroid collision The first man-made aircraft landed on Venus in 1996 Venus is the hottest planet in the Solar System It is the second brightest object in the sky at night … [Read more...] about Alien life on Venus could be PROVED in 2026 with groundbreaking Nasa plot to send probe into clouds

Nasa has pledged to land man on the Moon in 2024 The mission, dubbed Artemis, will mark the first time astronauts have set foot on the lunar surface since 1972 A giant Nasa rocket dubbed the Space Launch System will carry astronauts beyond Earth's atmosphere Once at the Moon, two astronauts will descend to the surface from an orbiting craft called the Lunar Gateway Nasa has pledged that one of the landing crewa will be female, marking the first time a woman has set foot on the Moon The pair would land on the lunar south pole, where vast reserves of frozen water could be tapped for future explorers The landing system that brought the astronauts to the surface will then blast back to the orbiting Gateway satellite They will board an Orion capsule for the 250,000-mile trip back to Earth Nasa has a mountain of technical challenges to overcome before Artemis gets the green light It's still not clear if everything will be ready in time for the ambitious 2024 launch date Nasa boss Jim … [Read more...] about Alien life could be hiding underground on the MOON as Harvard geniuses say it’s time to start drilling

An exoplanet is a planet that is located outside of our Solar System and one that is orbiting its own star, as Earth orbits the Sun They are very hard to see with telescopes because they are often hidden by the brightness of their star Nasa sent the Kepler space telescope into orbit with the purpose of finding Earth-sized exoplanets that might support life More than 4,000 exoplanets have been discovered so far and more missions to find even more exoplanets are planned A good way to spot an exoplanet is to look for "wobbly" stars because a disruption to starlight can indicate that a planet is orbiting it and blocking its light intermittently Expoplanets are very common in the universe and the more we find that look like Earth, the closer we get to knowing whether Earth is the only life-bearing planet … [Read more...] about Dozens of superhabitable planets that are ‘BETTER suited for life than Earth’ discovered ‘close’ to our world

Describing a bizarre incident in the Bermuda Triangle in 2009, former nuclear submarine commander Yury Beketov said: “We repeatedly observed that the instruments detected the movements of material objects at unimaginable speed, around 230 knots (400 km per hour). … [Read more...] about Russian submarines in secret battle with ‘ALIENS’ deep under the oceans, top secret Kremlin documents claim
