Origins of universe discover gold neutrons star emerge

The first detection of gravitational waves from the cataclysmic merger of two neutron stars, and the observation of visible light in the aftermath of that merger, finally answer a long-standing question in astrophysics: Where do the heaviest elements, ranging from silver and other precious metals to uranium, come from?
Based on the brightness and color of the light emitted following the merger, which closely match theoretical predictions by University of California, Berkeley and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory physicists, astronomers can now say that the gold or platinum in your wedding ring was in all likelihood forged during the brief but violent merger of two orbiting neutron stars somewhere in the universe.

This is the first detection of a neutron star merger by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) detectors in the United States, whose leaders were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics two weeks ago, and the Virgo detector in Italy. LIGO had previously detected gravitational waves from four black hole mergers, and Virgo one, but such events should be completely dark. This is the first time that light associated with a source of gravitational waves has been detected.

“We have been working for years to predict what the light from a neutron merger would look like,” said Daniel Kasen, an associate professor of physics and of astronomy at UC Berkeley and a scientist at Berkeley Lab. “Now that theoretical speculation has suddenly come to life.”
An impressive video has emerged showcasing a scientific experiment regarding thermal conduction. Footage shows Space Shuttle employee touching heated thermal tiles and demonstrates how quickly the outer layer sheds heat, whereas the interior layer retains heat. He picks it up with his bare hands almost immediately after being taken out of a 2000 degree oven, much to onlookers’ amusement! Amazing!
Heat is one of those things that don’t quite make sense. We need a balanced heat in order to survive. The temperature has to be not too hot and not too cold so that we can live on this planet. Our body temperature also regulates whether we stay alive or we die from hypothermia. Even one degree more or less makes a huge difference. This video which occurred in Cape Canaveral, Florida, USA on July 7, 2011, shows us just how much heat is relative.

A tourist went to visit the Kennedy Space Center and had fun observing thermal tiles and how they behave. Reportedly, the curious tourist recorded this video during the Kennedy Space Center tour, one day before the launch of the Atlantis Space Shuttle for STS-135, i.e. the last Space Shuttle mission. The demonstration was being provided featuring the Space Shuttle thermal tile material and was used to show how quickly the outer layer sheds heat, whereas the interior layer retains heat so that you can pick it up with your bare hands almost immediately after being taken out of a 2000 degree oven. That is very impressive!

Imagine that! A thermal tile managing to cool from 2000 degrees to body temperature in less than a few minutes. How cool is that?! Can you imagine being able to touch a preheated tile only seconds after getting it out of the oven? Would you dare touching this tile, knowing that you can only hold it on the edges, but should avoid the sides? It is a risk we are willing to take for a picture perfect photo! How amazing is that!?

These tiles are made out of a material called LI-900, which is exceedingly refined quartz sand. That insane capacity to cool off so quickly and allow to be touched—which resembles as cold witchcraft to us—is in reality because of the way that each tile is 94 percent air by volume and 99.9 percent silica glass by the structure. That combo makes it ludicrously terrible at leading warmth, which is the reason those edges are cool to the touch. It's not new tech, but rather it's mind-blowing to find in real life. And they are just begging to be juggled. Impressive indeed!

There's science, and there's enchantment. However, this footage shows the first in its finest form! Observe the warm tiles NASA used to shield transports from absolutely breaking down on their way back to Earth. Would you dare touching one of these freshly baked tiles straight after they have been taken out of the oven? Share your thoughts with us!

Space Moon is a term that is not commonly used in the field of astronomy or space exploration. However, if you are referring to the Moon, it is Earth's natural satellite and the fifth-largest moon in the solar system. The Moon is approximately 238,900 miles away from Earth and has a diameter of about 2,159 miles. It plays a significant role in Earth's tides and has been a subject of scientific study and exploration.
On the other hand, NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) is an independent agency of the United States federal government responsible for the nation's civilian space program and for aeronautics and aerospace research. NASA was established in 1958 and has since been at the forefront of space exploration, scientific research, and technological advancements. It has conducted numerous missions to study Earth, the Moon .
