Photon's story: From fusion to freedom

A lmost 1 million years, it takes to reach the light on Earth, the time it forms and travels inside the sun. Finally escapes around the photosphere. Hello and welcome, in today's post, we'll be learning the processes and events that photons (particles of light) experience and reach us. Let's begin. Introduction: In the quantum world, various particles bear the wave nature and they are produced, interact, and create several new entities. In this post, we'll see how the light (photon) can take thousands to millions of years, yet the sun's light arrives in just 8 minutes . Let's see the production of light in the sun's core because not every single point of the sun can produce light. Actually, the light is a kind of energy, which means it can't be produced or destroyed. In this case, we'll know it's different transformations that it might have gone through before reaching us. ...

Know about the Cosmic Dust clouds

O ne of the Splendid sights of space, which form Stars, planets, and even us. Let's explore the different types of Nebulae, which are not mere scenes or gas clouds in the cosmos, but tell us completely different stories. In Today's post, we'll categorize them and find some missing clues. Thanks for searching this blog and reading it. Without wasting any time. Let's clear those distant fogs and find out what they might be hiding.  Introduction: The Nebular Complex showing all 3 effects of Light Whenever you see those diffused, sparse, and beautiful things in space photos, you wondered and amazed by their appearance. Truly, they are one of the most splendid things in the cosmos, but equally dangerous. Before we start, let's know what a nebula is. In ancient times, the vast dispersed structure in night skies excluding Earthly objects was ca...

Discovery methods to find new worlds

W hy are exoplanets hardest to detect by conventional methods? Why do large institutes like NASA or ESA rely on Artists to create Exoplanet images based on Real data from space missions and Satellites? Today, we'll discuss such topics and find out that Exoplanet discoveries are nearly impossible with optical Telescopes. Hello and welcome to today's post. Without wasting any time, let's begin. Introduction: An exoplanet or Extra-solar planet is just a planet that orbits other stars, Clear? The main difficulty is their size and distance. To see a star, you don't need anything; we can clearly see the Average stars from 100s of light-years away. Stars are actually giant light sources, while planets are pretty small compared to stars. On top of that, they don't have their light; they just reflect incoming light from a nearby self-illuminating source. Just for example, our Sun can fit 1300000 Earths or 1000 Jupiters, so...
