Mars continues to captivate scientists and space enthusiasts alike! While we've discovered over 5,000 exoplanets orbiting distant stars, the Red Planet remains one of the most intriguing within our solar system. Billions of years ago, Mars had vast oceans and a climate potentially suitable for life. Today, it's a cold, barren desert, but NASA’s rovers, Curiosity and Perseverance, are unearthing fascinating clues about its ancient history. Could Mars have once harbored life? In this episode of Kainaati Gup Shup, astrophysicist Salman Hameed delves into three groundbreaking discoveries that offer new evidence about the possibility of life on Mars. #mars #astronomy #marsstunningvideo #nasa #lifeonmars #scienceexplained Subscribe to our Kids Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@KainaatKids Subscribe to our English Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@kainaatastronomyinenglish For more information about Kainaat Studios: https://www.kainaatstudios.com/ Sign up to our mailing list to get un-scene content and hear special announcements! https://www.kainaatstudios.com/newsletter Follow us for more: Facebook https://www.facebook.com/kainaatstudios Twitter https://twitter.com/KainaatStudios Instagram https://www.instagram.com/kainaatstudios/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@kainaatstudios LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/kainaat Salman Hameed has a PhD in astronomy and is Charles Taylor Chair and Professor of Integrated Science & Humanities at Hampshire College, and a member of the Five College Astronomy Department (FCAD) in Massachusetts, USA.

We know that blackholes exist. One of the types of blackholes, is roughly on the scale of the mass of our Sun. They form when the large-scale ones die. Then there are supermassive blackholes that exist at the centers of galaxies. These can have masses on the scale of millions or billions of times the mass of our Sun. Our own Milky Way galaxy has a supermassive blackhole that is 4 million times the mass of of our Sun. But astronomers have been looking for medium size blackholes. And now, finally, there is evidence of one in a globular cluster in our own galaxy. In this episode of Kainaati Gup Shup, astrophysicist Salman Hameed discusses how astronomers discovered this mid-size blackhole.

In astronomy we are often used to thinking in timescales of million or billions of years. But there is star that may have an explosion anytime - from now to the next couple of months! This is part of the binary star system T-Corona Borealis, and astronomers think that the white dwarf in the system will go nova (not supernova) soon! In this episode of Kainaati Gup Shup, astrophysicist Salman Hameed discuss why astronomers are predicting this nova. You can use Stellarium or Star Walk to find the star: https://stellarium-web.org/ https://starwalk.space/en You can also see this Kainaati video on how to find stars and planets in the night sky: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcLA0WGv0nw You can also find more information about T-Corona Borealis at the AAVSO website: https://www.aavso.org/news/t-crb-pre-eruption-dip and at this NASA site: https://blogs.nasa.gov/Watch_the_Skies/2024/02/27/view-nova-explosion-new-star-in-northern-crown/ You can also find a discussion of this on Kainaat's sister channel, Kainaat English: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DOA9ExIrD0 For more information about Kainaat Videos: https://www.kainaatstudios.com/ Please subscribe to our channel for Kids here: https://www.youtube.com/@KainaatKids And please subscribe to our English channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@kainaatastronomyinenglish For more information about Kainaat Videos: Official Website: https://www.kainaatstudios.com/ LinkTree (All Links in ONE): https://linktr.ee/kainaatstudios Kainaat Studios's Social Media Portfolio (Follow us): Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kainaatstudios Twitter: https://twitter.com/KainaatStudios Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kainaatstudios/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/kainaat Salman Hameed has a PhD in astronomy and is Charles Taylor Chair and Professor of Integrated Science & Humanities at Hampshire College, and a member of the Five College Astronomy Department (FCAD) in Massachusetts, USA.

Pakistan's first satellite to the Moon, ICUBE Q, is part of China's Chang'e 6 mission to the far-side of the Moon. How should we think about Pakistan's mission? Why is China going to the far-side of the Moon, and what will we learn from it? Please join astrophysicist in this episode of Kainaati Gup Shup.
