How to use astronomers in a sentence?
The burst was identified within 10 seconds of its occurrence, the importance of the discovery was recognized very quickly and we were all working very excitedly to contact other astronomers and telescopes around the world to look at the location of the burst.
Previous gas clouds found by astronomers show a higher enrichment level of heavy elements, so they were probably polluted by more recent generations of stars, obscuring any signature from the first stars, this is the first cloud to show the tiny heavy element fraction expected for a cloud enriched only by the first stars.
Heavy elements weren't manufactured during the Big Bang, they were made later by stars, the first stars were made from completely pristine gas, and astronomers think they formed quite differently from stars today.
The Breakthrough Listen program has the most powerful SETI equipment on the planet, and access to the largest telescopes on the planet, we can look at The Breakthrough with greater sensitivity and for a wider range of signal types than any other experiment in the world. Related : Why is this star dimming ? Astronomers still don't know One farfetched theory about the star is that aliens are somehow responsible for the star’s dimming, perhaps by having built a structure that passes in front of it, although Dan Werthimer, the chief scientist at Berkeley SETI, said Andrew Siemion thinks that’s incredibly improbable.
But that fact allows us to use computer simulations to tease out the history of Saturn’s inner moons, doing so, we find that they were most likely born during the most recent 2 percent of the planet’s history. Related : Saturn's largest moon Titan is bursting with color Researchers had long thought Saturn’s rings were as old as the planet itself. But that thinking changed in 2012, when French astronomers found that tidal effects – the gravitational interaction of the inner moons with fluids deep in Saturn’s interior – are causing them to spiral to larger orbital radii comparatively quickly. The implication, given their present positions, is that these moons, and presumably the rings, are not so old. That still did n’t answer exactly when they were born. Cuk and his team turned to results from NASA’s Cassini mission, which has observed ice geysers on Saturn’s moon Enceladus. Assuming that the energy powering these geysers comes directly from tidal interactions and that Enceladus ’ level of geothermal activity is more or less constant, then the tides within Saturn are quite strong. According to the team’s analysis, these would move the satellite by the small amount indicated by the simulations in only about 100 million years.
