Can gamma ray burst go faster than light.

According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, nothing can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum. Yet in space many strange things happen, including a new proposal by two astrophysicists that blasts creating bursts of gamma rays may be able to speed up faster than light, going superluminal.




How fast does a gamma ray burst travel?
Therefore, a wave could travel through a gamma-ray burst jet at superluminal speeds without breaking relativity. But to understand this, we need to back up a little to look at the source of those jets. Gamma-ray bursts are the most energetic explosions in the Universe.



What is a gamma ray burst and how much energy can it release?
The brightness of this flash of gamma-rays can temporarily overwhelm all other gamma-ray sources in the universe. The burst can last from a fraction of a second to over a thousand seconds. ... Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) can release more energy in 10 seconds than the Sun will emit in its entire 10 billion-year lifetime.

How much energy is in a gamma ray burst?
When this effect is taken into account, typical gamma-ray bursts are observed to have a true energy release of about 1044 J, or about 1/2000 of a Solar mass ( M energy equivalent—which is still many times the mass-energy equivalent of the Earth (about 5.5 × 1041 J).

What would happen if Earth was hit by a gamma ray burst?
If the gamma-ray burst happened at this distance, the radiation would have been absorbed by our atmosphere, only leaving a trace in the isotopes that eventually found their way into our trees and the ice. The researchers do not think it even emitted any visible light.


Where do gamma-ray bursts come from? 

The longer-lived versions of gamma-ray bursts have been found to be associated with ultrapowerful supernovas called hypernovas, which occur when stars between five and 10 times the mass of our sun end their lives and implode into black holes, according to NASA. Hypernovas are 100 times brighter than typical supernovas and are thought to be generated by stars that are spinning particularly fast or have an especially strong magnetic field, imparting extra energy to their combustions.
But the short-lived gamma-ray bursts, which make up 30% of such events, remained a mystery until 2005, mainly because they are too quick and fleeting for follow-up observations. After being launched in 2004, NASA's Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (previously called the Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Explorer) was finally able to record enough data to see the afterglow of short-lived gamma-ray bursts and figure out that they were likely caused when two ultradense stellar corpses known as neutron stars collided and formed a black hole, or when a black hole ate a neutron star. 

Such outbursts are so strong that they produce ripples in the fabric of space-time called gravitationalwaves. Now that researchers have fired up the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), which can detect gravitational waves from these collisions, they are expected to be able to gather even more information about the processes underlying short-lived gamma-ray bursts.

Saturn's moon Titan drifting away 100 times faster than thought

Using data from Nasa's Cassini space craft , scientists have discovered that Saturn's moon Titan is drifting a hundred times faster than than previously understood  -- about 11 centimetres per year. The findings, published in journal Nature Astronomy, may help address an age old Question. While scientist know that Saturn formed 4.6 billion years ago in the early days of solar system , there no more uncertainty about when the planet's rings and its system of more than 80 moons formed.  Titan is currently 1.2 million kilometres from Saturn. The revised rate of its drift suggests that the moon started out much closer to Saturn, which would mean the whole system expanded more quickly than previously believed. This result brings an important new piece of puzzle for highly debated question of age of Saturn system and how its moon formed.       

The powerful meteor that no one saw

At precisely 11.48 AM on December 18,2018, a large space rock heading straight for earth at speed of 19 miles/s exploded into vast ball of fire as it entered in atmosphere,15.9 miles above the Bering sea. From below, the only witnesses to this fiery event may have been the fish inhabit the frigid waters between Russia and Alaska, as no human caught sight of it. A meteor is the luminous phenomenon that results when an asteroid and other celestial body enters the earth's atmosphere. it is commonly called shooting star. If it does not fully vaporize and some part of it hits earth's surface,it is called meteorites.                         On December 18,2018,a large space rock     heading straight for earth at a speed of 19 miles per second exploded into vast ball of fire as it entered the atmosphere, 15.9 mile above the Bering Sea. no human eye caught sight it. US military satellites spotted the explosion immediately. One of the fist researchers to detect the event was
