If you thought 2020 is bad, wait for the year 2068 when a huge asteroid could potentially wipe all of humanity! Yes, astronomers have revealed that an asteroid named 'Apophis' is expected to pass extremely close or may hit the Earth in 2068 due to a phenomenon called Yarkovsky effect. Interestingly, the asteroid is named after The Egyptian god of Chaos and Evil. Also Read - Will The World End? Massive Asteroid 'Apophis', Equal to Size of 3 Football Fields, May Hit Earth in 2068 Researchers at the University of Hawaii Institute for Astronomy (IfA) have announced the detection of Yarkovsky acceleration on the near-Earth asteroid Apophis. This acceleration arises from an extremely weak force on an object due to non-uniform thermal radiation.  Also Read - Elon Musk Predicts Asteroid Will Hit Earth, 'we Currently Have no Defence' Discovered in 2004, asteroid Apophis is a 1,120-foot-wide (340-meter-wide) asteroid, about the size of three-and-a-half footbal...

Let’s discover how to get the feature! This method worked two years ago and we’re happy to announce that it still works (except for business accounts):

In an experiment relating to memory, a team of Neuroscientists at University College London worked on mice to explore 'hidden workings of memory' and 'inner GPS.' Can teleportation exist outside of Star-Trek and other science fiction? In a way, yes. A certain kind of brain “teleport” has been just attempted by scientists, successfully, using laser beams. In an experiment relating to memory, a team of Neuroscientists at University College London worked on mice to explore “hidden workings of memory” and “inner GPS.” The area responsible for memory is hippocampus where they directed the laser beams. They wanted to stimulate the neurons called as “place cells” there. According to the Daily Star, whenever a human or animal enters a new environment, these place cells are activated. The scientists put the mice in one location and gave them a sugar-water reward. The rodents were then moved to another location where laser beams were used to activate the place cells t...

Apple has added a new button to the iPhones but that might have gone unnoticed by most users. HIGHLIGHTS Apple has secretly added a new button to your iPhone. With the latest iOS 14, Apple not only rolled out software updates but also rolled out a new hardware feature as well. Apple has added a new button to the iPhones but that might have gone unnoticed by most users. With the latest iOS 14, Apple not only rolled out software updates but also rolled out a new hardware feature as well. Now, if you start looking for a physical button, you would not find it because it is practically impossible. However, the entire back panel of the iPhone has now become a touch-sensitive zone because of the new Back Tap feature. The new hardware feature that was rolled out by Apple without much fanfare turns the back panel of an iPhone into a button that can be woken up by taps. However, to use the feature you will have to first find and turn on the Back Tap feature. In your iPhone, go to set...

KTM 250 Adventure engine Powering KTM 250 Adventure will be the same engine as currently in use with 250 Duke. The 249 cc, single cylinder, liquid cooled engine is capable of generating 29.6 bhp of max power at 9000 rpm and 24 Nm of max torque at 7500 rpm. This is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The engine will be in the same state of tune as that of 250 Duke. 250 Adventure will be utilizing steel-trellis frame, just like its bigger sibling. Suspension system comprises 43mm WP Apex forks with 170 mm of travel at the front and WP Apex mono-shock suspension system with pre-load adjustability at the rear. The motorcycle will utilize MRF Mogrip Meteor FM2 tubeless tyres, as compared to Continental tyres used on 390 Adventure. Braking duties on-board 250 Adventure will be performed by 320 mm front and 230 mm rear discs, integrated with dual-channel ABS. Adventure motorcycles are gaining popularity in the country, something that will work as an advantageous factor for KTM 250 Adventu...

On Nov 01 London: Scientists have discovered in the Milky Way an Earth-sized free-floating rogue planet which does not orbit any star. Rogue planets are a bit uncommon as although many of the known exoplanets discovered so far do not resemble those in our solar system, they have one thing in common — they all orbit a star. However, theories of planet formation and evolution predict the existence of free-floating (rogue) planets, gravitationally unattached to any star. Polish astronomers from the Astronomical Observatory of the University of Warsaw provided the first evidence for the existence of such planets in the Milky Way a few years ago. However, the newly-detected planet, detailed in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, is the smallest rogue world ever found, according to the scientists. “Our discovery demonstrates that low-mass free-floating planets can be detected and characterised using ground-based telescopes,” said study co-author Andrzej Udalski, Professor at Unive...

KANYAKUMARI: A 32-year-old man in Kanyakumari district of Tamil Nadu ended his life to fulfil his vow that he would offer his life to God if he got a job. ‘I am going to God, who gave me a job,' read the suicide note of C Naveen of Elluvilai. The man, who got a job in a bank recently, ended his life by jumping in front of a speeding train.

Inquiries by police revealed that the man was an engineering graduate and did not have a job for many years. It was at this juncture he took the vow. for further details

The Declaration of the Rights and Responsibilities of Humanity in the Universe, however, mentions that space would be 'considered free, by all, for all, and to all.' In space, where nobody can hear you scream - earthly laws don't apply. Or so believes Elon Musk. The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, the tech mogul who has mentioned 'colonizing Mars' several times, now wants to make his own laws on the red planet. According a report in The Independent, SpaceX will not be recognising any international law on Mars and will instead follow a set of “self-governing principles” that will be laid down during the Martian settlement. Elon Musk appears to have very subtly slipped in a clause into the terms of agreement of Starlink satellite broadband services that SpaceX will make its own set of rules on Mars.

Metallic asteroid 16 Psyche that orbits between Mars and Jupiter has an estimated worth of $10,000,000,000,000,000,000 ($10,000 quadrillion) - more than the earth's entire economy. An extremely rare metallic asteroid orbits between Mars and Jupiter has an estimated worth of $10,000,000,000,000,000,000 ($10,000 quadrillion) - more than the earth's entire economy, as per a new study published in the Planetary Science Journal. Asteroid 16 Psyche is one of the most massive objects in the solar system's main asteroid belt. It orbits between Mars and Jupiter, about 230 million miles from Earth. 16 Psyche measures about 140 miles in diameter, which is roughly about the size of US state Massachusetts.
