UNSOLVED COSMIC PUZZLES

Despite human advancement in space exploration, certain Universe's mysteries still baffle scientists. Even with powerful telescopes and space probes, the infinite Universe remains an unsolved mystery. 

Here Are 5 Space Mysteries That Still Baffle Scientists:

The universe's 95% is of unknown dark matter. The remaining 5% is of the baryonic matter comprising stars, planets, animals, and humans. As per the Big Bang theory, there should be twice as much baryonic matter as scientists can detect. This raises a question—where is the missing half of the universe's ordinary matter?

At the South Pole, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory was built to detect elusive subatomic particles known as neutrinos. Soon after its construction, it received an unusually intense burst of cosmic rays striking the Southern Hemisphere. The origin of these cosmic rays remains unknown and puzzles scientists. 

Located about 700 million light-years from Earth near the Boötes constellation, contains an exceptionally low amount of matter, making it one of the darkest and most mysterious areas in space. This leaves scientists wondering—what could have caused such an enormous cosmic void?

In 2006, NASA launched a balloon to the edge of Earth's atmosphere to detect radio signals and heat traces from distant galaxies and stars. The scientists were baffled at a mysterious radio signal six times stronger than expected, with no known source like black holes or star vibrations. 

In November 1991, astronomer James Scotty discovered an unusual object, named 1991 VG, moving through the solar system that didn’t resemble an asteroid. To this day, the true nature and origin of 1991 VG remain a mystery.
