A NASA satellite which was launched 30 years ago, has been influenced by a mysterious force. This phenomenon is able to change the laws of physics.
Scientists from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) said Pioneer 10 satellites that take pictures of Jupiter before leaving the solar system in 1983, has now pulled back to the sun by an unknown force.
However, this incident does not give effect weakening energy spacecraft in space travel. Scientists are even considering the possibility of an investigation about a new force of nature.
NASA research team member Dr. Philip Laing said his team has examined the entire system based on existing theory. However, there is no acceptable explanation. "If this effect is real, the emerging theory will have a major impact on the system of cosmology and spacecraft navigation," said Laing.
NASA's Pioneer 10 was launched on March 2, 1972. Kembarannnya besama with the Pioneer 11, the two satellites is revolutionizing the science of astronomy by presenting a detailed picture of Jupiter and Saturn.
Scientists initially suspected that the gas emerging from the rocket motor on board small satellites, has been leaked thus generate nuclear power. However, this theory has been ruled out.
They could not find an explanation about the existence of constant strength, good understanding of the effects of gravity and solar radiation, which triggers rapid decline with distance.
This strange behavior also eliminates the possibility that the two aircraft are being influenced by the gravitational pull of planets that are not known outside the solar system.
Space scientist at Salford University Dr. Duncan Steel says likely theory about the weak force, which proved to have a big impact on a cosmic scale. "This may be the reason why the comet appears to earth millions of years ago. We might have questions about the law of gravity, "he said
