BERMUNDA TRIANGLE OF SPACE
I think you are all probably aware of and even intrigued by the North Atlantic Ocean's legendary Bermuda Triangle, which is supposedly the cause of many aircraft and ship disappearances under mysterious circumstances. But did you know that space also has its own bizarre Bermuda Triangle, nicknamed the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA)? To understand this anomaly, the first thing you need to know, which is pretty obvious, is that outer space is not one of the friendliest zones. It is a new day with many familiar and often unfamiliar threats, such as harsh cosmic rays. These cosmic rays are comprised of high-energy particles that are powerful enough to wreak havoc on living beings and electronic devices.

ASTEROID COLLISION
What would actually happen if an asteroid were on a collision course with our planet? We know that hundreds of pieces of space rock fall through our atmosphere every single year, but luckily, they burn up on entry. They are simply not large enough to have any noticeable impact. However, there's evidence to suggest that Earth has experienced several large strikes throughout its history, so there is every possibility that it could happen again.

BLACK HOLES
Of all the powerful and destructive forces in the universe, black holes remain some of the most mysterious. In recent years, astronomers have studied far more of them and discovered that not only do they come in all shapes and sizes, but rather than being stationary in space, some are actually moving, and some even travel at incredible speeds. But what are the consequences of this, and how does it affect the surrounding regions? We’re only just starting to find out.
