For a 30 hour spell (Feb 7-8, 2012) the Solar Dynamics Observatory captured plasma caught in a magnetic dance across the Sun's surface. The results closely resemble extreme tornadic activity on Earth.

This video was actually 'recorded live' so to speak, under the silver arch! The silence you hear, is the silence of the dark night in a clearing way up high in the Sierra Nevada Mountain range. Quite a profound and moving experience.

Observations of the orbits of six small objects have led researchers to propose a very large 9th planet--100s of astronomical units (AU) away from the sun. Far enough away that this Neptune-sized planet takes ~15,000 years to complete one orbit.

These beautiful, at times abstract, images are the work of Google Earth View, a collection of the most striking landscape photographs taken by Google Earth satellites with a little color enhancement. For More Information visit: www.COFL.CO

According to ancient astronaut theorists, Ramanujan, the mathematician who lived almost a hundred years ago and whose breakthroughs helped form the basis of superstring theory and multidimensional physics, claimed to have been influenced by otherworldly beings in this clip from Season 11, Episode 5,...

Scientists are buzzing about gravitational waves and what a big deal they are. Wait! Don’t be embarrassed if it all leaves you confused and you just can’t share their excitement. Here's your guide to gravitational waves, short and simple as ABC.

The first set of images from the GOES-16 satellite have been released by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (N0AA). The geostationary satellite will be used for weather forecasting, severe storm tracking and more.
