Throughout history, different cultures have sought to weave a coherent tapestry of the universe and its evolution, driven by an innate curiosity about its origins. These narratives not only shaped cultural identities but often served as tools for asserting dominance. In the modern era, scientific endeavours took a pivotal turn with the discovery of cosmic background radiation in 1964,...
We propose a correspondence between the Morris-Thorne wormhole metric and a warp drive metric, which generalizes an earlier result by H. Ellis regarding the Schwarzschild black hole metric and makes it possible to embed a warp drive in a wormhole background. We demonstrate that in order to do that, one needs to generalize the Natario--Alcubierre definition of warp drive and introduce nonzero...
Many explanations have tried to resolve the Fermi Paradox, some of which have argued for our cosmic solitude. The more sceptical positions emphasise the innumerable random factors in the emergence of living species, the contingent events that may determine their extinction, the rare conditions of our solar system or our planet. On the other hand, some scholars have argued the abundance of life...
Descriviamo il concetto di TEMNO - Transient Event Multimessenger Nanosat Observatory - un osservatorio spaziale compatto per l'astronomia degli eventi transitori. Sebbene sia piccolo ed economico, TEMNO offre una rilevazione wFoV efficace e scalabile, cueing e analisi di un'ampia gamma di segnali astronomici transitori - Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB), Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), Supernovae (Sn)....
