He calculated the speed of light to be around 225,300 km/s. Roemer did not know the precise distance to Jupiter, so his estimate was considerably different from modern figures of around 299,792 km ...

Researchers tracking female bats in central Europe found they migrated much farther in a single night than previously thought ...

Especially as the ancient Egyptians – even if they had worked out the speed of light thousands of years before its measurement by Danish astronomer Ole Roemer in 1676 – did not work in meters, ...

I am interested in the expression and perception of individual differences within interpersonal situations. Be it in simulated settings (e.g., during a high-stakes assessment center) or in real-life ...

Merry Christmas! And may God bless us, everyone! Chris Roemer resides in Finksburg. He can be contacted at [email protected].

A Yale-led team of astronomers has detected an intensely brightening and dimming quasar that may help explain how some ...

Attosecond science, the laser-led study of what happens to matter over very short timescales, could lead to major advances in ...

In 2018, a galaxy about 270 million light-years away from Earth exhibited a major increase in activity. It quieted down again ...

Oregon State University researchers have found luminescent nanocrystals with fast light-dark switching capabilities.

But did you know that light from an object travelling at high speeds changes colour? This is thanks to what’s called the Doppler effect – the way speed affects the length of waves, such as ...

Among them, one with a speed so exceptional that its classification is simply: extremely rare. It was a full halo CME and it left the Sun at a phenomenal 3,161 kilometers (1,964 miles) per second.
