INSIDE SCIENCE

If one look at space, at first glance it looks very calm but looking at in another light, we see that it is also in turmoil. The Neil Gehrels Swift satellite was launched in 2004. The task of this Swift satellite released by NASA is to detect a Gamma ray burst , the most powerful and energetic event in the universe. Gamma ray burst EMIT as much energy in just 2 seconds as the sun emits throughout its lifetime.  All this energy came out in the form of a jet with the speed of light. This satellite has detected a lot of Gamma ray bursts so far. This could be due to the collision of two neutron star. Neutron stars are the core left over after a supernova in a star many times larger than the sun. The effect of gravity is so great that evens the protons of a remaining Core collapse on their own and turn into a neutron. It contains the strongest metal in the universe called nuclear pasta . A neutron star is made up almost entirely of neutrons. More than a hundred years ago, Einstein ...

Diamond planet In 2004 astronomers Michael Endl,Fritz Benedict, William Cochran, Barbara Mc Arthur, From Yale University discovered a planet made entirely of Diamond .This planet is named 55 CANCRI E.it an exoplanet that orbit its main star 55 CANCRI A . If we are talking about its size, its size is twice as big as the Earth. Due to the large amount of graphite in high pressure and the increase in temperature that planet has completely turned into a diamond .This planet is 40 light years away from us. It surfaces temperature is always 2700 degrees Celsius .It completes its star orbit in just 18 days. Its radius is about 12000 km where Earth is 6371 km.That is why it is also called Super Earth. Since the planet is a diamond, Scientist say it orbit its main star from a very short distance. So with that the rising temperature ,graphite has turned into a Diamond that is 10 billion trillion trillion carat .If we talk about the price of a diamond for this whole planet , it will come out ...
