If you could, would you want to be a volunteer to go to mars when it happens?
I would honestly, as long as I can get back to earth. But I think exploring a new planet and finding stuff perseverance, and curiosity (the 2 mars rovers currently active) has not found yet. Like signs of life, and new mysteries.
Will we ever build technology that could make us travel outside our solar system?
I want to know if we will or not, since technology for space is really limited for travelling, but I wonder if we can send humans on telescopes somehow, or just rockets to make us go so far like we have never before.
How can we find all these stars and planets that are millions and millions of light years away but not planet 9?
This has been a question I wanted to ask for a while, and this is genuine. I really want to know what is so hard about finding a planet in our solar system but objects ridiculously far away from earth.
Why do scientists give space objects the weirdest names?
Anytime I’m reading/watching a topic on space and they mention a name of an exoplanet, star, nebulae, or maybe even a black hole, they have super strange names. Like what is exoplanet KIC 8462852?
How can we detect black holes that are billions of light years away even though they are invisible?
To be honest, I understand that we can do it from sound waves, seeing that warping of space around it, but how do we know just where to look?
What’s the scariest space fact you’ve ever heard?
I want to hear the scariest fact you know. Not, “we’ve only discovered like 0.1% of space” like I mean the SCARIEST.
