14th May: After a search lasting 50 years, NASA scientists have announced that they have found the most recent supernova remnant in our galaxy.

By using x-rays and radio, they have found the supernova at a distance of around 26,000 light-years away from us.

The discovery is very exciting. Such and recent and powerful supernova will be able to tell us a great deal about how supernovae act, the forces involves, what happens in a supernova, and even how elements in our universe were created and supernovae’s role in creating the elements that we see all around us.

As it stands, the theory on supernovae does not match scientific observations. Theoretical scientists have predicted that there should be around three supernovas in our galaxy every 100 years. However, astronomers have to been able to locate anywhere near this amount. This latest discovery brings theory and observation closer and will help NASA find more supernovae in future.

The supernova was found by tracking the aftermath of the supernova. When a star goes supernova, it throws out a huge amount of debris. NASA astronomers were able to follow these tell tale signs to find the supernova itself.

Gina Carano is best known for her role as Crush in American Gladiators. However, her latest challenge is an MMA (mixed martial arts) fight against Kaitlin Young. She has long been an MMA fighter and went into American Gladiators to expand her career and fund her MMA training.

Carano is optimistic about this fight but has not has the amount of time to train that she usually has. She usually like to have two months to get in full and fighting shape for each match. However, this one has come with only three weeks notice.

Today NASA will announce that they have found a new object in our solar system. One that they have been searching for over many years.

What is this object? At the moment, this is not clear. Is it a comet? Have NASA found a new moon? Maybe there’s another sun we didn’t know about.

What ever it is, it has long been a goal of astronomers to find it. They have been relentlessly searching for over 50 years and only now has their quest reached fruition.

If you want to know more about what this mystery object is, be sure that you check out NASA announcement on the subject later today. The press conference will reveal all about the new discovery and enlighten us all as to what this means for us and the future.
