Will we be in danger? Recently, a scientific study revealed that there is an extremely giant black hole near the Earth. Likewise, the monstrous hole has approximately 12 times the mass of the sun and is located 1,550 light years away, it is presented in the Astrophysical Journal. See: November will be full of amazing…

It’s the same size and cargo capacity as the Nimitz, always good to see more carriers but not sure what made the video creator say this one Shocked the world. It’s a modern Nimitz, it’s not like a leap from Midway class to Forrestal.You can’t sink it. So why does it need so much protection.…

The SR-72 Will Be the Fastest Aircraft in the World: Although the original Blackbird was an unarmed reconnaissance aircraft, the SR-72 will reportedly support Lockheed Martin’s new High-Speed Strike Weapon (HSSW). And while the world was watching closely when the Chinese tested their hypersonic missiles, the Son of Blackbird will reportedly fly at a blistering…

Hundreds of years ago, Indigenous people in coastal Peru may have collected the scattered remains of their dead from desecrated graves and threaded reed posts through the spinal bones.   Scientists recently counted nearly 200 of these bone-threaded posts in stone tombs in Peru’s Chincha Valley, and they suspect that the practice arose as a…

There are objects in the Universe of which I am in awe. And there are observations of them that also engender those same feelings. OJ 287 is one of them. It’s a rare type of galaxy called a blazar, where the very center of the galaxy is blasting out light across the electromagnetic spectrum, including…

I build F-35s as a career. The B model does not normally do vertical takeoffs since this compromises the surface underneath, risking damage and blowing FOD into the plane & engine inlets. As can be seen in the video, a short takeoff run is nearly always performed for the F-35B. It can land vertically, however,…

The UH-1Y Venom is a modern version of the UH-1 Iroquois. It is also called Yankee in reference to its variant letter and also as Super Huey. Since its introduction in the late 1950s the original UH-1 has been constantly improved and upgraded. The latest UH-1Y Venom is a result of H-1 helicopter upgrade program…
