It's difficult not to fantasize about what it might be like if advanced aliens were tuned in to our planet right now, downloading the latest news and gossip in an effort to ascertain the state of our civilization. Hopefully, they will skip over certain aspects, such as the film "Don't Look Up," the present federal government, or the gigantic pen*s now strewn over a portion of Australia. The

Although the Moon does have an atmosphere, it is very thin and mostly made of hydrogen, neon, and argon. This is not a gaseous combination capable of supporting oxygen-dependent animals such as humans. On the Moon, there is an abundance of oxygen. It is just not in a gaseous state. Rather than that, it is trapped inside regolith — the lunar surface's covering of rock and fine dust. Would

NASA verified that the biggest comet ever detected has a diameter of around 85 miles and is now officially the largest comet ever spotted after Hubble Space Telescope studies. C/2014 UN271 (Bernardinelli-Bernstein (BB) was discovered in 2014 by two astronomers, Pedro Bernardinelli and Gary Bernstein, using Dark Energy Survey archived pictures. BB's diameter was previously estimated to be

Earth’s been hiding a little secret from its partner, the moon. Turns out the Earth has had a “mini-moon” on the side for over a century, and even though the relationship has been exposed, the partnership is likely to continue for centuries to come. This newly discovered moon is smaller than our moon and goes around the Earth astonishingly irregularly, but still, two is quite better than one

The Perseverance Rover has found something very unusual on the surface of Mars. Instead of finding past microbial life forms as part of its mission, the Mars Rover has found a piece of “human trash” on its surface. All our space exploration initiatives to Mars, be it the Perseverance Mars Roveror the Mangalyaan Mars Orbiterhave been desperately looking for some form of microbial life on

Juno is a NASA space probe that orbits Jupiter. Lockheed Martin built it, and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory operates it. As part of the New Frontiers programme, the spacecraft was launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on August 5, 2011 UTC. NASA’s $1 billion Juno spacecraft captured spectacular flyby photographs while traveling at more than 130,000 kilometres per hour above Jup
