Asteroid Mining For the Future
What happens when the Earth's most precious resources finally begin to dwindle? When its gems are all but scraped from its surface and sold off? When its rarest elements are strained and used? When the last gallons of water are on the brink of being consumed? Or even more grim of a reality, when the last tree is chopped down and fresh air becomes a scarce commodity? What then?

Universe
Did you know that The earliest cosmological models of the universe were developed by ancient Greek and Indian philosophers and were geocentric, placing Earth at the center. Over the centuries, more precise astronomical observations led Nicolaus Copernicus to develop the heliocentric model with the Sun at the center of the Solar System. In developing the law of universal gravitation, Isaac Newton built upon Copernicus's work as well as Johannes Kepler's laws of planetary motion and observations by Tycho Brahe.

Do Aliens Exist?
Now, exoplanets simply mean that a planet which is located beyond our solar system. Recently, an international team of scientists has collected the first possible radio signal from a planet beyond our solar system and these radio signals were emanating from an exoplanet system, which is about 51 light-years away from our solar system. So this was done using a Low-Frequency Array and it covered radio missions burst from the Tou Bootes Star System. Now, this Low-Frequency Array or LOFAR is a large radio telescope network which is located in the Netherlands.
