No doubt NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) is a US space research institute that is most often made a breakthrough and astonishing discoveries.
Since its establishment in 1985 ago NASA has launched at least 1000 more exploration missions to investigate the earth and the universe. One of the missions that have recently most shocking the world is when NASA and ESA (European Space Agency) successfully landed the first satellite in a comet.
In addition, there are still many great discoveries made by NASA that not only increase knowledge, but also change the way humans think about the universe.
1. The planet similar to Earth with two suns
A planet circling a star usually just as the earth revolves around the sun. But what if a planet similar to Earth orbit coincidence two suns at once? The answer is OGLE-2013-BLG-034LBb.
The planet is about 3000 light years from Earth it is the first planet known to live in the solar system with two stars at its center. The discovery of OGLE-2013-BLG-034LBb make NASA sure there are many other planets out there who could be the next human habitation.
2. Hand of God
It is not a goal that was created by Diego Maradona that beat England in the World Cup decades ago, but the strange apparition seen by NASA's successful. By using Chandra, NASA managed to record a fraction of exploding stars that form a complete hand with his fingers.
'Hand of God' was formed by the pulsar's spin or type of neutron star. Each round of the star produce large amounts of energy that eventually form a burst of energy. Uniquely, the pulsar was only 12 miles in diameter, but is able to produce a cloud of space with a length of 150 light-years away!
Pulsar 'Hand of God' is located about 17,000 light years from Earth.
3. The aliens in Titan
Some time ago, NASA using Cassini probe has uncovered when Titan, one of Saturn's satellites, have a fairly thick layer of the atmosphere.
Not only that, NASA discovered life form that has long lived in the atmosphere of Titan. The mysterious life forms can survive by consuming the substance (hydrogen) contained in the atmospheric layer.
4. The net universe
Not only internet who have 'nets', the universe also appeared to have a cosmic strings that look like spider webs.
By utilizing the services of the Keck telescope in Hawaii, NASA discovered a bright object or quasars are seen illuminating gas nets that connect the dots in the galaxy. Nets universe was estimated extends up to 2 million light-years from the end of the universe to the other.
5. ancient solar system
An ancient solar system found at a distance of 127 light years from Earth. NASA states that when the solar system is a system of the largest and most distant planet from the sun.
Furthermore, although the solar system was only inhabited by 5 planets, but the distance between the planet similar to our solar system. According to Dr. Christophe Lovis of NASA, the ancient solar system discovery marked the beginning of a new era of search farthest planets in the universe.
6. The first planet habitable
Besides Earth, scientists still have not found a planet can actually inhabited by humans. However, a speck of hope appeared when NASA discovered Kepler-78B. The planet is a planet outside the solar system with the closest distance to Earth. Kepler-78B itself has the size of 80 percent larger than Earth.
Unfortunately, further research shows if Kepler-78B is almost impossible inhabited by humans since reported a surface temperature can reach 2000 degrees Celsius! That is because the distance is too close to its star, which is only 900 thousand miles.
7. ancient lake on Mars
Puzzle about life on Mars began missed once in January 2014, NASA found evidence of water on Mars mainland. The proof is a former giant lake about 3.7 billion years old.
The existence of an ancient lake is increasingly emphasized when Mearh the first planet ever inhabited by living beings. Thanks to the invention, the NASA increasingly confident man can begin to inhabit Mars in the next few years. Moreover, a giant rocket NASA is now used to carry humans to Mars has entered the stage of development.
