Inside Science on Instagram: "Discovered in 1990, Pan is one of Saturn’s strangest moons — a miniature world only 35 km across, orbiting within the Encke Division of Saturn’s A ring. Its unusual dumpling-like shape isn’t random — it formed as ring particles gradually piled onto its surface, creating a ridge around its equator. #Saturn #PanMoon #CassiniMission #Astronomy #PlanetaryScience #Cosmos #SpaceExploration #NASA #PhysicsOfOrbits #inside_science_"

Inside Science on Instagram: "Detected in 2025, 3I/ATLAS is an interstellar object — a traveler from beyond our solar system — now racing past the Sun on a hyperbolic path. But recently, astronomers picked up something unusual: repeating radio pulses coming directly from its direction, echoing in a precise pattern — 8, 13, 8, 5, 13, 8 — all transmitted at 1420 MHz, the “cosmic hailing frequency” famously used in SETI searches for intelligent life. #3IATLAS #InterstellarVisitor #CosmicSignals #SE

Inside Science on Instagram: "🏹 Why the Horizontal Speed of a Projectile Never Changes Follow @inside_science_ for daily insights that make physics come alive ⚙️ When you launch a ball, an arrow, or even a rocket, its motion splits into two independent parts — horizontal and vertical. The horizontal speed (velocity along the x-axis) stays constant throughout the flight, as long as air resistance is ignored. That’s because once the projectile leaves your hand, no external horizontal force acts o

Inside History on Instagram: "In 1986, the German Army conducted a demonstration to showcase the remarkable precision of its Leopard 2 main battle tank. Engineers placed a full mug of beer on the end of the tank’s 120 mm cannon and drove it across rough terrain. Despite the bumps and jolts, not a single drop was spilled. This test wasn’t just a stunt—it was meant to demonstrate the tank’s advanced stabilization system, which keeps the gun perfectly steady even while in motion. The same technolog
