Giant impacts between super-Earths and mini-Neptunes can produce post-impact bodies hundreds of Earth radii across, comparable with that required to produce the observed infrared flux.

While full-scale planetary collisions remain theoretical, scaled-down versions show promise: Let''s be real - current prototypes cost $2 million per joule produced. But consider Moore''s

Although planet-vaporizing collisions may seem like science fiction, for proof that they occur, one need look no further than Earth''s moon, which was likely born from a Mars-sized impactor...

While we can''t know for certain, we can get a sense of the odds by calculating the probability: the likelihood that such an event will take place. The statistical answer is one in a million in any given year.

Publishing our findings in Nature, we propose that both sets of observations could be explained by a cataclysmic collision between two planets. Giant impacts, as such collisions are

Read on to uncover the fascinating world of planetary collisions, exploring how they occur, what causes them, and the potential outcomes, from fiery destruction to the birth of new celestial bodies.
Learn MoreV4V Super Power Africa is a leading energy storage equipment manufacturer and integrator based in South Africa, serving the African continent. We specialize in lithium‑ion battery storage, sodium‑ion battery storage, system‑level battery management (BMS), energy conversion systems (PCS), communication cabinets for telecom infrastructure, commercial & industrial energy storage cabinets, integrated photovoltaic storage systems, distributed energy resources, deep discharge applications, and turnkey energy storage solutions. As a full‑service energy storage equipment manufacturer, we also provide containerised BESS, modular battery racks, backup emergency power, and zero‑carbon microgrids. Our advanced lithium‑ion and sodium‑ion solutions ensure safety, scalability, and high performance for residential, commercial, industrial, and utility projects across Africa.
Our modular energy storage portfolio ranges from compact distributed energy resources to 20ft/40ft mobile containers and outdoor all‑in‑one storage cabinets. We are a leading energy storage equipment manufacturer, offering communication cabinets for 5G/telecom, server racks for data centers, and lithium‑ion & sodium‑ion battery modules with integrated BMS. Our stackable design allows flexible capacity expansion, while our grid‑forming technology ensures stable off‑grid operation. Whether for off‑grid power systems, backup emergency power, PV+storage integration or large zero‑carbon parks, our products feature advanced thermal management, PCS and EMS integration, deep discharge cycling, and compliance with South African and international standards. We also provide professional energy storage system installation and after‑sales support across Africa.
