Mars’ Moons Phobos and Deimos Could Be Asteroid Debris, New Study Reveals
- Thursday November 21, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
New research proposes that Mars’ moons, Phobos and Deimos, could have originated from an asteroid torn apart by the planet’s gravity. Simulations show that this shredded asteroid could have formed a ring around Mars, eventually coalescing into the moons. The theory is being tested through the upcoming Mars Moons Exploration mission, which could...

Did Earth Once Freeze Completely? New Evidence Found in Colorado Rocks
- Friday November 15, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Recent research in Colorado’s Pikes Peak has uncovered crucial evidence supporting the Snowball Earth hypothesis. The discovery of Tava sandstone formations suggests that Earth experienced a global ice sheet about 700 million years ago. Using advanced radiometric dating, researchers pinpointed the formation of these sandstones to between 690 and ...

Future Supercontinent Pangea Ultima Could Trigger Mass Extinction, Reveals New Study
- Wednesday November 6, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A University of Bristol study warns that Earth’s future supercontinent, Pangea Ultima, may make the planet uninhabitable for humans and mammals. Due to a combination of rising CO₂ levels, increased solar radiation, and vast land area far from oceanic cooling, the supercontinent could experience widespread extreme temperatures. Though millions o...
