In the hottest for the Northern hemisphere, the days of the planet, it turns out, reaches its maximum distance from the Sun, which is available to its orbitele approaching the peak, the heat grows stronger, and it may seem strange, but now our planet is as far from the Sun.

Increased activity of El Nino was the cause of the extinction of coral reefs in the Pacific ocean approximately 4 - 1,5 thousand years ago - the scenario can be repeated in the near future due to climate change, reinforcing this climatic phenomenon, oceanographers say in the article, published in the journal Science.

With the help of the Japanese vessel for deepwater drilling "Tiko" the researchers plan to reach the fault that caused the devastating earthquake Tohoku last year.

If there are no Martians on Mars, they are probably somewhere near? NASA and Purdue University (USA) believe that the Phobos may be life listed there with Martian meteorites. At least, according to the previously received data, the soil samples from Phobos include a significant amount of material of the red planet.

Where the grass grows in Africa, possibly through decades will be standing forest. Growing in the atmosphere concentration of CO2 creates an advantage for trees in the Savannah.

Employees of the University of Cambridge (UK), together with colleagues from India and the US for the first time visualized as the fluxes of solar gas heated to millions of degrees, rise in the relative calm of coronal loops.

Last week at the Joint Institute for nuclear research, that is located in Dubna, was a very significant event. 27-28 June there was held the session of the Bureau of the Department of physiology and fundamental medicine of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Scientists discussed the issues related to the safety of the astronauts future interplanetary missions.

Water - the cradle of life. Its properties are striking biologists and biophysicists, and their study is rapidly developing in our time. But for the average person consumption of water is urgently needed. Therefore, in the study of planets and small bodies in the Solar system, scientists are primarily interested in: there is very necessary for life stuff?

Heat waves with record temperatures around 40 degrees was recorded on Sunday throughout Italy.

Climate change is the litmus test by which easily checked honesty scholars

Needless to fear that the Antarctic ice completely melts? All this has already happened in the history of the Earth. A team of scientists led by Sarah Picins has completed a study which showed that millions of years ago the climate of Antarctica was much warmer than previously thought. The study was based on the study of various biological materials, frozen into the ice of the Ross ice shelf.

Some ancient philosophers believed that the air is the primary element or primary substance. They believed that he is not divided into simpler components. So, the ancient Greek philosopher Empedocles taught that the universe is composed of four elements - water, earth, fire and air.

Magnetized bar has two magnetic poles, North and South. The magnetic field of such a block is a dipole, i.e. a field with two poles ("d" means two) . The form can be seen with iron filings. The lines of force of this field are as focused sawdust. Each opielka is a compass needle. It is oriented along the magnetic field, tangent lines of force of the magnetic field.

Space is infinite. But the cosmos, which is most often we talk about is near the sun space. The scientists called the heliosphere ("Helio"- Sun). This space belongs to the Sun because it fills their plasma streams of charged and neutral particles. Actually, this is the Sun's corona. We are the children of the Sun and live in the Sun's corona. Everything in our life depends on the Sun.

Earth was formed out of that substance, which was thrown away from the Sun? So it makes sense to start the history of the Earth from the very beginning - from the moment of formation of the Sun. The sun in its current form was formed 6-7 billion years ago. The earth was formed about 4.6 billion years ago. Star - the Sun - from the very beginning was not as it is now. Each star is born, lives and dies. Our modern Sun is a stage in the development of the life of stars.
