Popular theory about the rate of birth of stars has been refuted
(ORDO NEWS) — An international team of astronomers has obtained new data on the process of star formation by studying the structure of gas clouds in the Cygnus X region. The study completely disproved the popular theory that the process of forming stars from molecular hydrogen is very long. Scientists have studied the area where numerous stars are formed. The source of material for their formation is gas clouds, which…

Scientists prove Hawking’s most complicated Theory right
(ORDO NEWS) — By simulating the event horizon of a black hole using a chain of atoms, the researchers demonstrated the existence of the Hawking radiation described by the late physicist. Scientists have created a lab-grown analogue of a black hole to test one of Stephen Hawking’s most famous theories, and it behaves exactly as Hawking predicted. The experiment, created using a single row of atomic strings to simulate a…

Theory of “invisible aliens”
(ORDO NEWS) — It is definitely possible, and scientists are working to understand if there are hidden dimensions. One of the new scientific theories suggests that different dimensions simultaneously exist in the same space. They are layered on top of each other, similar to how you can layer an image. We just don’t have the ability to see these dimensions… higher or lower than we perceive. Our perception of reality…

Life from clay a new theory about the origin of cells
(ORDO NEWS) — Legends are told all over the world that the gods molded the first man out of clay. But what if these myths echo reality in strange ways? Helen Hansma, biophysicist emeritus at the University of California, argues that primitive cells could have originated in mica clay, which thus became the “mother” of all life. The hypothesis that primary life could originate in mica clay appeared about 16…

“Missing Link” of the theory of evolution of galaxies discovered
(ORDO NEWS) — An undergraduate student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, USA, made a significant contribution to the development of ideas about the mechanism of growth of stars and black holes, establishing the nature of the relationship between these two processes. The information obtained will make it possible to more effectively interpret the results of observations of galaxies using NASA‘s James Webb Space Telescope. Astronomers know that the evolution…

A new theory of the origin of the Earth has dotted all
(ORDO NEWS) — Oddly enough, in fact, we still do not know exactly how our planet was formed. The researchers have the general idea, but the finer details are much harder to unravel. Scientists have developed a model that is currently considered the most likely explanation for this process: the Earth formed as a result of the gradual accretion of asteroids. However, even within the framework of this theory, there…

Theory suggests that time slows down and will one day stop completely
(ORDO NEWS) — There is a radical theory proposed by a team of physicists from the Spanish University of Salamanca led by Professor José Senovilla, which says that time can stop, as a result of which “everything that exists will freeze as in a photograph.” Like a winding mechanical watch that gradually loses energy, time gradually slows down and suddenly stops altogether. “We believe that time arose during the Big…

Simplest and most plausible theory about the origin of dark matter
(ORDO NEWS) — Astrophysicists conducted a study and found out what points existing alternative theories of gravity should take into account in order to describe the influence of dark matter. In addition to the Lambda-CDM model, which introduces dark matter to describe the observed phenomena, there are several alternative cosmological theories. Now physicists have imposed such restrictions on them that they are all wrong. According to the ΛCDM (Lambda-CDM) model…

Application of a special theory for counting galaxies
(ORDO NEWS) — About 35 years ago, researchers discovered the cosmic microwave background, which is electromagnetic radiation left over from the formation of the universe during the Big Bang. The cosmic microwave background appears warmer in the direction we are moving and colder in the opposite direction. From this glow of the early universe, scientists can deduce that the Sun and the Earth orbiting it are moving in a certain…

Physicists have put forward an alternative theory of gravity
(ORDO NEWS) — In the dark depths of space, our models of the universe become chaotic. A new study looking at the ultra-diffuse dwarf galaxy AGC 114905 has revived a controversial theory (or rather hypothesis) of gravity and has given us more questions than answers about what makes our galaxies move. It all starts with dark matter – or, in this case, no dark matter. While most cosmologists agree that…

denial of the theory of human evolution was associated with a tendency to racism and discrimination
(ORDO NEWS) — A new study by an international team of scientists has shown that people who refuse to believe in the theory of human evolution are also more likely to have more prejudice, hold racist views and support discrimination against members of other nationalities and the LGBTQ community. Moreover, such a relationship is typical for citizens of many countries, regardless of political views, religion and education. The study is…

Background radiation of the Universe turned out to be twice as bright as theory predicts
(ORDO NEWS) — Measurements of optical extragalactic radiation made by the New Horizons probe showed that all distant stars and galaxies are not able to create so much background light. Even if you “turn off” the moon, stars and all other light sources in the night sky, it will glow faintly. Space is filled with photons born in ancient galaxies, supernovae, the vicinity of black holes and still rushing through…

Story of how Darwin created an evolutionary theory that was confirmed after 100 years
(ORDO NEWS) — Perhaps the most famous postulates of the scientific theory of Charles Darwin are the origin of humans and monkeys from a common ancestor and the principle of “survival of the fittest.” But how could a British scientist formulate them in the 19th century, when the mechanisms of inheritance and genetics were not yet known to science? Not all scientific hypotheses put forward by scientists of the 19th…

How tectonic faults form: a new theory of rifting
(ORDO NEWS) — Most people have probably heard of tectonic faults. After a long study, scientists found that some of these faults were formed due to the drift of tectonic plates. We are talking about the so-called rifts – these are extended abysses where the lithospheric plates parted. For a long time it was believed that they are formed due to the fact that pressure increases at the junction of…

Observations show more disk galaxies than theory allows
(ORDO NEWS) — The Standard Cosmological Model describes the formation and evolution of the universe since the Big Bang. The new work simulated the evolution of galaxies in accordance with this model and found significant discrepancies with real observations. Most of the galaxies visible from Earth are flat disks with a thickened central part. According to the Standard Cosmological Model, however, such disks should form quite rarely. The fact is…

Why a theory of everything may never be possible – or any use
(ORDO NEWS) — One theory to rule them all – is such a thing plausible? According to some physicists, it could cause more problems than it solves. A theory of everything would do several things. Currently, we know the Universe is glued together by four fundamental forces. Thanks to Einstein, we have a theory of gravity, which views gravity as the curvature of space-time, and a ‘quantum’ theory of the…

Theory of ekpyrotic or an alternative scenario for the origin of the Universe
(ORDO NEWS) — In the very distant future, galaxies will “scatter” so far apart that light from one can never reach the other. In addition, global gas exchange will stop, which will lead to a gradual cessation of star formation, which means that one day there will come a time when there will be no light or heat left. The universe will be prohibitively dark, cold and empty. This sounds…
