How far we have explored space and how far can we go? || The James Webb Space Telescope

explored space

 141 AU which is equal to 141 times the distance between Earth and Sun, Voyager 1 is able to travel the most in history. Even after traveling at the speed of 17 km/sec in space, which may sound a lot, it will take 1,700,000,000 years for Voyager 1 to cross the Milky Way Galaxy. Proxima Centauri, the second closest star from Earth after Sun is 4.2465 light years away and it would take 40,000 years for Voyager 1 to reach it. Parker Solar Probe recorded the highest speed in space which is 692,000 km/h and still, it would take more than 50,000 years to reach destinations like Proxima Centauri. 

Now if we need to explore exoplanets, the factor we need to develop is speed. Out of many ways, the most well-known way to travel faster in space is Warp Drive where we use Antimatter to gain speed. Antiatoms are successfully built and research over Antimatter is being done. Big Bang should have produced a huge amount of Antimatter which may be lying far away in Universe

james webb telescope

The James Webb Space Telescope is the largest, most powerful, and most technologically challenging space telescope ever built. The Webb Telescope is so large it must be folded like origami to fit inside its rocket fairing for the ride into space. Once in space, unfolding and readying Webb for science is a complex process that will take about six months. Webb is designed to see the most distant galaxies in the Universe and study how galaxies evolved over cosmic time. Webb will study planets orbiting other stars looking for the chemical signatures of the building blocks of life. Webb will also study planets within our own solar system. The Webb Telescope Mission is an international space telescope program led by NASA with its partners, the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency.

WATCH INSTAGRAM STORIES ANONYMOUSLY!!!?

 If you want to see anyone's Instagram story without letting them know, If you've ever wanted to be a fly on the wall at an Instagram Story, then this blog post is for you.  In this post, I'll tell you all about the best websites that will let you watch anyone's stories anonymously. In addition to that, you will not need to login into that website. Ahead of time, though, there are a few things that everyone should know before trying to spy on someone else's Instagram Stories. You need to have a bit of patience in order to make this work, given that there's always a chance that the one you're spying on could beat you to it. Most importantly, you can't expect this to work for every account that you try it on. There's also no way of knowing how much of the stories you'll actually be able to see and how long the access will last for. However, you cannot be able to see the stories of those who have a private account. below are the links to some websit...

Mechanical and optical mouse

  How does the Mechanical Mouse work? A mechanical mouse consists of a heavy rubber ball whose movement makes the cursor move on the screen. Commonly known as the ‘rolling rubber ball’ mouse, it is considerably heavy, thanks to the rubber ball, a few wheels, and a number of other mechanical parts present inside it. When you move the mouse, the ball rolls beneath it, pushing the two plastic wheels/rollers linked to it in the process. One of those wheels detects side-to-side movement (x-axis wheel) and the other (y-axis wheel) detects movement in the up-and-down direction. Both of these wheels consist of spokes that ‘break’ a thin light beam inside the mouse. The number of times the beam breaks helps to calculate how far the mouse has moved. For instance, when you move the mouse straight up, the y-axis wheel turns. The farther up you go, the more the ball pushes the wheel and the more it breaks the light beam. This helps to determine how far the mouse has moved straight up....

How do Ants sense Food?

  S ugar has a slight odor, particularly granulated beet sugar. While all species of ants can differentiate between a wide variety of odors, the smelling range differs from a few centimeters to meters. Desert ants can smell sugar from up to 3 meters. the food sources that ants cannot smell from a distance they 'smell' it (contact chemoreception) by touching it. So in a way, all the food they detect, they detect it by smelling. So yes, ants smell (although contact chemoreception is more like taste) the sugar. The ant colonies send scout ants to search for food in various directions, often up to a range of 100 to 200 meters.(Depends on the territorial boundary and time of the year). The scout marches steadily in less circuitous paths initially if it has memories of previous feeder locations. (Ants use visual landmarks, and a stereo-smell system to create an odor map and navigate) Periodically it will halt and look for olfactory cues. It will then take into a more circuitous rando...
