The Super-Kamiokande neutrino detector is a physics experiment the size of a 15-story building buried under a mountain in Japan. The detector is full of ultra-pure water, which can leach the nutrients out of your hair and dissolve metal.

The first simulated image of a black hole was calculated with an IBM 7040 computer using 1960 punch cards and hand-plotted by French astrophysicist Jean-Pierre Luminet in 1978.

See DART’s Final Images Before Asteroid Impact

NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) successfully impacted its asteroid target Dimorphos on Monday, September 26, 2022, after 10 months of flying through space. It was the world’s first planetary defense technology demonstration and NASA’s first attempt to move an asteroid in space. The 1,260-pound (570-kilogram) spacecraft was flying at a speed of about 14,000 miles (22,530 kilometers) per hour at the time of impact.

During the spacecraft’s final moments before impact and obliteration, its Didymos Reconnaissance and Asteroid Camera for Optical navigation (DRACO) imager took four images capturing its terminal approach as its asteroid target Dimorphos increasingly filled the field of view.
