For centuries, giants have been the basis for many legends and fairytales. These tales aren’t specific to a certain place as every culture on Earth has its own beliefs and stories of towering humans with mᴀssive strength. Why does the idea of super large, disproportionate, humans resonate with so many of our conscious minds? Maybe it’s because proof of their existence on Earth has been found for centuries; however, the powers that be have denied and hidden the remains that have been found for many varying races and sizes. In the American Southwest, a tribe of red-haired, six-fingered mummified giants…

At least a dozen planets outside our solar system may be more suitable for life than Earth. These worlds are somewhat older, slightly wetter, slightly warmer, and slightly larger than Earth, according to research published Sept. 18 in the journal Astrobiology. All of these criteria may indicate that some of these planets are ideal for searching for extraterrestrial life. “We have to focus on certain planets that have the most promising conditions for complex life. However, we have to be careful to not get stuck looking for a second Earth because there could be planets that might be more suitable…

It is one of the most massive black holes ever discovered. Scientists have identified an ultra-supermassive black hole 30 billion times the mass of our sun hiding in an image captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. Black holes are born when colossal stars many times the size of our sun run out of fuel, and collapse in on themselves in spectacular fashion. The resulting singularity is incredibly dense, and boasts a gravitational pull so powerful that light itself cannot escape it. Astronomers attempting to unravel the secrets of these insatiable singularities have to contend with a unique cosmological problem: how…

You can watch the move below: Reaves and Russell had every reason to rock that shake as the Lakers avenged their first-game loss to the Bulls in emphatic fashion. Anthony Davis exploded for 38 points as LA evened the two-game series between the two…

He recently explained how the duo saved the league, though he did note that the ratings only really took off when his Detroit Pistons showed up on the scene. “I think Bird and Magic saved the league, and I think the league took off when the Detroit…

NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory has recently captured what appears to be the “tallest tornado” ever recorded in the solar system. The incredible swirling vortex of boiling plasma continued to grow in the sun’s atmosphere for a remarkable three days, reaching an awe-inspiring height of approximately 75,000 miles (120,000 kilometers), or 14 Earths, on Saturday (March 18), before ultimately collapsing into a cloud of magnetized gas. This remarkable event was initially reported by SpaceWeather, which has since confirmed that the ejected material from the solar tornado will not have any impact on Earth. “This 14-Earths-tall swirling column of plasma was raining…

The biggest galaxy ever seen, known as Alcyoneus, has been discovered, according to a recent study that was published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics. Alcyoneus is an elliptical galaxy that is 160 times bigger than our Milky Way galaxy and is located around 3 billion light-years from Earth. It has a diameter of 16.3 million light-years. Alcyoneus is a radio galaxy, which means that its supermassive black hole consumes matter and produces two plasma jets that travel at almost the speed of light. After traveling millions of light-years, these jets cooled down and fanned out, generating radio waves that…

We know there’s water on the Moon, but questions remain about how it got there, where it’s stored, and how it moves around. In a new study, scientists from China have identified tiny glass beads in the lunar soil as potential places where water could hide. And we’re talking about a lot of water too, perhaps as much as 270 trillion kilograms (297.6 billion tons) of the stuff. The new findings are based on samples brought back from China’s Chang’e 5 rover mission. The spacecraft spent a couple of weeks collecting material from the lunar surface in December 2020, and…

Draymond Green may not be the Golden State Warriors’ best player, but he surely is their emotional backbone, the heart and soul that fuels them with the necessary competitive fire, especially after their success over the past decade. Whether up or down by 20, Green remains unabashedly himself — sometimes to a fault. But on Tuesday night, Green’s impact was in full display as the Warriors were able to overcome a 20-point deficit to claim a much-needed victory over the New Orleans Pelicans to regain the coveted sixth spot in the Western Conference standings. Speaking with Chris Haynes of TNT immediately after wrapping up a…
