Arelease of data gathered by the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) telescope network in Europe has added extraordinary new levels of detail to the map of radio waves across the cosmos, inspiring dozens of studies on everything from magnetic fields to black holes, It's moments like these we should be grateful of our relative blindness to the radiance of the night sky--at least, if we want sleep at night. Invisible to the human eye, the Universe is in fact ablaze with low frequency waves produced by accelerating particles and electromagnetic fields. Measuring that radio hum requires some pretty sensitive equipment. LOFAR's array of 20,000 antennas scattered across 48 stations in the 67KM GSAS shining astronomical phenomena. So far only about 20 percent of the survey has been completed, and of that, scientists all over the globe can only access about 10 percent of available data, That might not sound like much, but they're clearly having a field day with it. The journal Astronomy and Astrophysics has just published 26 studies based on this initial data release, covering quasars, blazars, black holes, and intergalactic electromagnetic fields. LOFAR has a remarkable sensitivity and that allows us to see that these jets are present in all of the most massive galaxies, which means that their black holes never stop eating. The sensitivity of LOFAR's eye on the sky has also helped researchers trace out the faint magnetic fields that have been predicted to exist in intergalactic space but until now too hard to detect. 14) Which country has launched its first semi-heavy missile-equipped submarine Fateh’?

US space agency NASA has recently unveiled a new space telescope 'SPHEREx' that would begin a two-year mission in 2023 to map the entire sky in order understand the origins of the universe. The acronym SPHEREx stands for 'Spectro-Photo meter for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization and Ices Explorer’. The spacecraft objective is to learn about how our universe evolved and how common the essential ingredients for life in our galaxy's planetary systems. It will survey the sky in optical as well as, near-infrared light which, though not visible to the human eye, serves as a powerful tool for answering cosmic questions. It will map the entire sky every six months to create a map in 96 color bands, and will be searching for water and organic molecules like methanol or acetone in regions where stars and being born and new planets are forming. Astronomers will use the mission to gather data on more than 300 million galaxies, as well as more than 100 million stars in our own Milky Way. It's a mission designed to quickly and, in the world of space science, cheaply explain the first moments of the universes’ history — and an elegant exploration of the past, complimenting more future-minded missions, like the journey to Mars. 19) According to Kaspersky Lab report, Pakistan ranked among most insecure countries of the world in Cyber Security?
