Some stars in our galaxy, known as hypervelocity stars, move much faster than most other stars in the Milky Way. In fact, they are traveling so fast that our galaxy's gravity can't hold onto them and ...

An Army Howitzer is now firing a super high-speed, high-tech, electromagnetic Hyper Velocity Projectile, initially developed as a Navy weapon. Due to its ability to reach speeds of up to 5,600 miles ...

Our Milky Way galaxy and Andromeda are destined to collide with each other in roughly 5 billion years, but the galaxies may already be exchanging stars. A new study suggests that hypervelocity ...

Hypervelocity impacts, characterised by projectile speeds exceeding several kilometres per second, pose critical challenges for aerospace and defence engineering. The dynamic processes involved ...

Hypervelocity impacts involve collisions at speeds of several kilometres per second, where the immense kinetic energy is sufficient to vaporise target materials and generate transient plasmas. These ...
