โจThe "prong horned antelope" can magnify eight times as much as we humans can see, so it can easily see the planet Saturn, which we can't see with our eyes, and can see everything with a 305 degree angle, which means it can easily see what's happening behind it But humans can only see 180 degreesโจ

Mirror Universe
โจSome Physicist believe that when Big Bang created our universe, another Mirror Universe was also created where Time moves in reverse direction. People living in this Mirror Universe wouldn't find things weird because they've always experienced time that wayโจ

What is Lunar Eclipse?
โจ A lunar eclipse occurs when Earth comes in between the Moon and the Sun. While a total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon and Sun are on opposite sides of Earth, a partial lunar eclipse happens when only part of Earth's shadow covers the Moon. Meanwhile, when the Moon travels through the faint penumbral portion of Earth's shadow, a penumbral lunar eclipse happensโจ

LUNAR ECLIPSE 2021
โจThe longest partial lunar eclipse in 580 years will occur on 19 November and will be visible from parts of Northeast India. The longest partial lunar eclipse will occur on 19 November and will start at 12.48 pm and end at 4.17 pm.
๐The moon is likely to appear blood-red in colour, which happens when the red beams of the sunlight pass through the Earth's atmosphere and get least deflected and fall on the moonโจ.

๐ฅPhoton Sphere
โจThe "photon sphere" is a location where gravity is so strong that light can travel in circles. Photons orbit the Blackhole at the distance of the photon sphere.
A photon could leave the back of your head, go once around the Blackhole, and be seen your eyeโจ

๐ญThe telescope's performance is impressive, not only because of the monsoon, but also because of the technological breakthroughs.
๐This shows what the universe looked like 12 billion years ago. It is estimated to be 12.8 billion years after the creation of the universeโจ

Quark Matter
โจQuark Matter is an extremely dense phase of matter made up of subatomic particles called Quarks. This theoretical phase would occur at extremely high temperature and densities. It may exist at the heart of neutron stars. It can also be created for brief moments in particles colliders on Earth, such as CERN's large Hadron colliderโจ
