Space and Stories

Space, or also known as outer space is the measureless area which surrounds the celestial bodies. It is not empty, but is filled with vacuum. There are several people who work and study about the outer space, do discoveries etc. To name few; astrologer, astronaut, space scientists etc. Till date thousands of discoveries are made in the outer space.

Most of these discoveries brought along some stories. One can say that these discoveries are linked with some or the other story; or one can refer to these discoveries as stories. So, let’s know about some stories or discoveries in the outer space.

• The ‘Oh My God!’ radish discovery in outer space: - Can you believe that recently a NASA astronaut grew radishes in outer space? I know that it is a little hard to believe, but it’s true. NASA scientist Kate Rubins recently harvested fresh radishes in outer space. This project was successful with radishes and not with any other type of crop or any other type of green leafy vegetable as radish is a different type of crop

• More than 1,00,000 ‘Oh My God!’ craters found on moon: - Blown away the mind of space scientists, and even the common men, this huge number of craters found on moon is considered to be much more than these we thought. This recent story was made possible using artificial intelligence or commonly known as AI.

• ‘Oh My God' dead civilizations discovery: - Hundreds of alien civilizations were spotted in our very own milky way galaxy. Recently it was observed that these alien civilizations which dotted the milky way have most probably killed themselves.

That’s it for the few stories or discoveries in the outer space which I like to read about the most!
