key concept in cosmology we want to know it as precisely as possible the european space agency's planck satellite measured radiation from the early universe and determined that for every megaparsecs or 3300000 light years further away a galaxy is it's receding 6070 kilometers per 2nd faster but more recently the hubble space telescope examined nearby galaxies and came up with a higher expansion rate of 74 kilometers per 2nd per megawatt hasek based. scrapin see still needs to be explained. many physicists believe but these glimpses into the cosmos show that the rate of expansion of the universe is increasing. some us astrophysicists have simulated what would happen if the expansion were to keep accelerating. in this scenario known as the big rip the entire fabric of space time would be torn apart galaxies stars planets even atoms the universe as we know it would cease to exist. fioretti that is fortunately this scenario is very improbable. so keep those questions coming here's how to get in touch on our website twitter or facebook. that's all for now next time we get into micro plastics

that according to the latest measurements the universe the universe my friends has curves enter the planck satellite a joint effort between mass usa to map the cosmic microwave background across our sky and according to plans for off. it appears the numbers suggest a curved universe not a flat one but what does this mean well for one thing since we all started from the big bang a flat universe would mean we just keep expanding forever out into the horizon while a curve universe says that we will eventually come back into it so the universe will come back into itself and something cosmologists are calling the big crunch. now well now the big problem is can we finally can we finally now that we realize the universe is curved and we finally move beyond the whole flat earth mass please it's a globe i'm sorry it's not flat. all right everybody out there starts over there remember in this world we are told that we love the stuff so i tell you all i love you i robot to keep on watching all those hawks out there about the great day and night. thinking of getting a new book on the ones we got in he

scientists daniel to bring him in a jar look here at this work for the max planck institute for molecular genetics. and in. one night i was on the internet and this cat documentary came up in my recommendations and one of the cats they showed was a little bug and they said she has 6 toes which was interesting to me but i've seen that before and then they said the cat's also small because she's got weird bones which means this cat has both a limited formation and a bone malformation it's i thought this can't be happening it doesn't come. this is precisely the 2 scientists specialty they deal with hereditary diseases. and it's going to the next day i went to daria and said you have to see this cat you won't believe what she's got of we knew that there are genetic mutations that cause limit from actions and also mutations that cause bone malformations but i've never seen a combination of the 2 so i figured the best thing to do was to sequence that which is our specialty but it was totally amazing that something we normally do in our institute which makes most of our friends yawn was related
