Nature is full of wonders, sometimes what you see is unbelievable and the other time, what you believe may not be part of nature.  Sonoluminescence is one such counter intuitive phenomenon, which is very rare and took scientists off guard.

It is basically a conversion of acoustical or sound energy into light energy which is part of nucleation, growth and collapse of bubbles in liquid. 2) Behind the scene There is more to it, the bubble generated during this process makes the surrounding water h...

Nature sometimes surprise you unexpectedly. NASA named as today's lunar eclipse a lunar trifecta but what does it mean? It is the super blue blood moon which happens during lunar eclipse.
