Exoplanetary Systems Are Diverse. Experts Argue Search for Life Should Be the Same

100% Center coverage: 4 sources
Scientists are revolutionizing the search for extraterrestrial life by challenging our somewhat Earth-centric assumptions about where and how life might exist in the universe. A new review argues that we must embrace the remarkable diversity of exoplanets discovered over the past two decades and consider a much broader range of environments that could potentially host life.SpaceSee the Story

Another Tether Deorbiting Test Mission Takes Shape

100% Center coverage: 2 sources
More and more satellites are being added to low Earth orbit (LEO) every month. As that number continues to increase, so do the risks of that critical area surrounding Earth becoming impassable, trapping us on the planet for the foreseeable future. Ideas from different labs have presented potential solutions to this problem, but one of the most promising, electrodynamic tethers (EDTs), have only now begun to be tested in space.SpaceSee the Story

Using a Space Elevator to Get Water Off Ceres

100% Center coverage: 2 sources
We might not currently have any technology that would make a space elevator viable on Earth. But that doesn't mean they wouldn't work on other bodies around the solar system. One of the most interesting places that one could work is around Ceres, the Queen of the Asteroid Belt, and potentially one of the biggest sources of resources for humanity's expansion into space.SpaceSee the Story

Do Ocean Worlds Have Smaller Habitable Zones?

100% Center coverage: 2 sources
Hycean worlds are also called ocean worlds. They're planets covered in oceans that also have thick hydrogen atmospheres. There are no confirmed hycean worlds but many candidates. Even though they're only candidates so far, researchers are curious about their habitability. New research examines the role tidal heating plays in their potential habitability.SpaceSee the Story

Tiny ‘primordial’ black holes created in the Big Bang may have rapidly grown to supermassive sizes

Stellar Flybys Have Not Altered Earth's Climate in the Past 56 Million Years, Study Finds

100% Center coverage: 2 sources
If our solar system seems stable, it's because our short lifespans make it seem that way. Earth revolves, night follows day, the moon moves through light and shadow, and the sun hangs in the sky. But in reality, everything is moving and influencing everything else, and the fine balance we observe can easily be disrupted. Could passing stars have disrupted Earth's orbit and ushered in dramatic climatic changes in our planet's past?SpaceSee the Story
