A new chapter in the “The Lord of the Rings” franchise is being revealed.

The first teaser for Amazon Prime’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is officially here!

The first teaser for Prime Video’s The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings of Power poses the question: “Haven’t you ever wondered what else is out there?”

Google Earth user has claimed to have found a "lost ship" in Antarctica with images of the "captain's quarters" visible from space. Scott C Waring, who previously claimed he saw a "proof of life of a pink alien on Mars ", said he stumbled upon an abandoned ship not far from an alleged UFO crash site.

NASA is tracking three asteroids that will be making a "close approach" to Earth this Valentine's Day - and one is almost the size of the iconic Arc De Triomphe.The US space agency believes that the largest of the loved-up space trio could be 154 feet wide.To put that into perspective, that's more than half the size of the Statue of Liberty which measures 305 feet.

A spokesman for the Institute said the move could turbocharge scientific discovery and give all of humanity a greater stake in space exploration."Rents paid on plots of moon land could be leveraged to benefit the whole of humanity through alleviating poverty on Earth as well as democratising space travel,’’ she said."Under the proposed system individuals would compete against each other for plots of land on the moon that have most likely been initially acquired by, or assigned to, particular nations."This competition would consist in paying rent such plots at a rate determined by supply and demand."Rent rebates could be given for improving the condition of land or providing for urgent human needs.

UFO hovering in space above Earth in an old NASA photo.Tyler, who goes by the name "secureteam10" on YouTube, believed the astronauts had no idea they had snapped the odd-looking craft while they were performing a spacewalk.Sharing the details in his video, he explained the photo was taken in 1960s when three crew members were sent to orbit to perform an engineering test of the first crewed lunar module.During the mission, they took photos of the crew member doing a space walks and the spectacular sight of the Earth from space.But one particular picture caught the UFO enthusiast's attention."This is a photo snapped by one of the astronauts doing space walks before coming safely back down to Earth," he said."In one of the photos they took thousands and thousands of miles away from Earth, a dark triangular craft seen above Earth in shuttle missions that happened many decades later."This was discovered to be lurking among these clouds – all the way back in the 60s when this photo was taken."He zooms into the picture, showing a black dot among the clouds lurking in the background.He continued: "It's still hard to see but when we go all the way in, we get yet another dark triangle UFO, seems to be at an angle as if it's flying right above the clouds, right at the line where the Earth atmosphere meets space.

UFOs and massive buildings on the moon, hinting that there is life beyond Earth. In a video posted on YouTube, there appears to be structures on the moon, with one reportedly overlooking the Apollo 15 landing site. The footage, which was uploaded by alien research channel Secureteam10, estimates the buildings to be the size of a "Walmart" and compares photographs taken by astronauts in the past.

Earth.Influenced by Netflix film Don't Look Up, a team of scientists from the University of California has decided that the best course of action to protect Earth would be to launch as many nuclear missiles at it as possible.The team was headed by professor of physics Philip Lubin.He told The Sun: “(The report is) a serious attempt to look at whether humanity has reached a point where we could prevent what happened to the dinosaurs 65 million years ago.“What we point out is that we easily possess enough nuclear devices to take apart a large object like the one in 'Don't Look Up'.“Our nuclear arsenals are designed to essentially threaten other nations – but those same devices could be used to protect us."In the case of a 10km asteroid, you're talking about an existential threat that's going to kill billions of people."You can say 'but, I'm really worried about the radiation [created by a nuclear defence strategy]', but (you will) also just die.“It's the nature of our natural world that we get hit by comets and asteroids because there are many around," he said.“There are big things out there that, if they did hit us, it would be catastrophic.“On the other hand, there are a lot of smaller things out there, some of which are of similar size to the Chelyabinsk meteor, which are not existential threats, but they could potentially kill a lot of people.”According to armscontrol.org, as of November, 2021, the UK has 225 nuclear warheads in stock, while America has an astonishing 5,550.Russia, however, is home to 6,257.France has 290, while Pakistan, India and China have under 400, too.Israel has around 90 of them, and North Korea possesses about 40 to 50 – although they could be hiding far more that we will never know about due

Amy Schumer on Sunday reflected on parenting as she posed with her son Gene in a photo on Instagram.'Being his mom is heaven on earth and also means a constant feeling of guilt and vulnerability I will never get used to,' the 40-year-old actress said in the caption. 'Your heart feels like it’s outside your body and you’re too old to drink the feelings away like you used to.

UFO expert Scott C. Waring that they appeared from a hole in the cloud and remained in the air for four minutes.The self-professed expert claims the crafts do not belong to the military and are in fact proof of alien visitors to Earth.Waring said: "The woman in the video says there are six of them.

Amazon has released a slew of new character posters for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, in a tease for the upcoming series. No faces or character names are revealed, only a lot of torsos and hands, but they’re sure to leave fans guessing as to who may be attached to the show.

Earth is being followed by a huge “Trojan asteroid”, scientists have revealed.

NASA is now able to search the full night's sky when looking for 'near-Earth' asteroids.

asteroid' that follows Earth in orbit through space could one day be visited by humans, according to scientists. The space object named 2020 XL5 was spotted two years ago and could be in pursuit for 4,000 years before tailing off.It is thought the hitch-hiking steroid was captured by Earth's gravitational pull and began orbiting along the same path as our home planet at some point in the last millennium.The keen lump of rock potentially began following us as recently as 500 years ago, according to the findings in academic journal Nature Communications.Researchers have been able to get a closer look at A2020 XL5 using telescopes in Chile, Arizona, and the Canary Islands.

NASA is planning to crash International Space Station (ISS) in a remote ocean area within the next decade.The Huston-based space agency is considering bringing the spacecraft down into a so-called 'space graveyard' in 2031.The International Space Station was launched back in 1998 and has seen 244 astronauts and space tourists visit since it settled in Earth's orbit.However, the 24-year-old spacecraft is getting old and unsustainable to repair so a NASA report has declared that it will only be able to "operate it safely through 2030."US President Biden has committed to keeping it operational for the next eight years but after that, it will need to be brought down safely before it becomes dangerous.If it is left in low Earth orbit it could crash into satellites creating dangerous space junk, which experts are already wary of.But the plan is to slowly lower the space station's altitude from its current spot 408km above the ground until the Earth's atmosphere will pull it in closer and faster, before crashing into the sea in an area known as Point Nemo, which is Latin for "no one".The remote region is around 4,000 metres deep and the furthest point from any inhabited area of land, making it the ideal spot to crash defunct rockets and satellites.The site has seen hundreds of spacecraft being laid to rest thereby Nasa and other space agencies since it was first used in 1971.For more shocking stories from the Daily Star, make sure you sign up for one of our newsletters here.In the future, private firms such as Elon Musk's SpaceX and Jeff Bezo's Blue Origin will do the work of the space station in the future.Director of Commercial Space, Phil McAlister said: "The private sector is technically and financially capable of

NASA is now able to better locate ‘doomsday asteroids” that could pose a potential threat to Earth.The American space agency has upgraded its asteroid hazard software to the new Sentry-II algorithm for the first time in 20 years.This upgrade will help NASA improve its detection of dangerous space rocks hurling towards out planet, the Daily Mirror reports. NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) uses a special software to analyse if possibly hazardous asteroids could hit Earth. It works by frequently scanning a list of asteroids and their orbits that are already known to be possibly hazardous and then calculates if any known or new asteroids could potentially hit Earth.

space shuttle disaster may not have died instantly when it "exploded" 72 seconds after launch, according to new evidence.Millions watched in horror as the Space Shuttle Challenger launched at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center on January 28 in 1986.Friends and family can be heard cheering off the astronauts, but just over a minute after launch, the shuttle burst into flames over the Atlantic Ocean.The shuttle was recorded to have reached 65,000 feet before it plummeted into the ocean.Just seconds before Challenger launched, a fire is reported to have broken out onboard following a booster to prevent leaks from a fuel tank failing.This caused the fuel tank to collapse from hot gas before it was torn apart.NASA has always insisted that all crew members, including teacher Christa McAuiffe, had died instantly in the horrifying disaster.However, new evidence has emerged decades later that reveals the crew may have been alive for several seconds after the shuttle began to be torn apart.Despite the huge fireball, the Challenger is said to have remained intact for several seconds before it was torn apart by atmospheric forces as it plummeted down to Earth.Every member of the crew aboard the Challenger has its own air pack, which would help them survive for several minutes in an emergency.According to new evidence, three of the air packs had been manually activated following a search of the Challenger wreckage.The evidence is contained in a report by Dr Joseph.

NASA has revealed plans to improve they way they detect ' doomsday' asteroids capable of wiping out the human race.

asteroid, larger than the Empire State Building, is set to come very close to Earth in just a matter of weeks time.Labelled as 138971 (2001 CB21), the big rock has been designated as “potentially hazardous” and measures around 4,265 feet wide.It has also been added to NASA's Earth Close Approaches list – although it is not deemed hazardous enough and won't be near to crashing into the Earth when it flies past on March 4.It will come close to Earth but will remain around three million miles away.The asteroid was first recorded passing earth on February 21, 1900, and has made frequent, almost yearly visits to our solar system ever since.It last appeared on February 18, 2021, although took a long break between 2011 and 2019.It is not clear if and where you will be able to catch a glimpse of it this time around – although it will be in our system at 7.59am - but it will be back to grace us with its presence on February 11, 2022, and again on April 24.It will then make three trips in 2024, in January, June and December.NASA has actually calculated the trips of the asteroid all the way up until October 11, 2194.Earlier this week, NASA-funded scientists told how they have found that the way the Earth rotates and orbits the sun means objects darting towards us at night can slip through a network of computerised telescopes.This means that asteroids could potentially go undetected close to Earth.A “near miss” of a 100-metre asteroid bolting past Earth only 43,000 miles away was enough to rattle the astronomical community in 2019.Given that it was spotted only 24 hours earlier, the US Congress tasked NASA with identifying 90 per cent of asteroids bigger than 140 metres which could destroy a large city if it landed.As part of Nasa's
