Were those "alien farts" that the James Webb Space Telescope detected in an Earth-like planet's atmosphere last year, or were they just clouds of methane? A new study makes the case for the latter, potentially dampening hopes that life has already been discovered beyond our solar system. Live Science has more: https://flip.it/yo.FL2

「 Einstein's "model of gravity has been essential for everything from theorizing the Big Bang to photographing black holes," said lead author and Waterloo mathematical physics graduate Robin Wen in a statement about the research. "But when we try to understand gravity on a cosmic scale, at the scale of galaxy clusters and beyond, we encounter apparent inconsistencies with the predictions of general relativity." 」

Pourquoi l’Europe s’enlise dans son projet d’Internet par satellites

Depuis l’annonce de son intention de développer une constellation Internet par satellite indépendante il y a dix-huit mois, l’Union européenne (UE) est confrontée à des défis et des retards considérables. Malgré une offre unique provenant d’un consortium de sociétés multinationales, les projets semblent s’engager dans des eaux troubles. Pourquoi ?

China on Friday launched a probe to collect samples from the far side of the moon, a world first as Beijing pushes ahead with an ambitious program that aims to send a crewed lunar mission by 2030. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/05/04/asia-pacific/science-health/china-moon-probe/

Had the chance to capture this galaxy, M51, from my obsevatory in Mexico City this very week! Zoomed in beforehand to show you the details of this magnificent pair of interacting galaxies.

For years, has been talking about creating a communication network in Martian orbit. Now is paying SpaceX and eight other companies to flesh out their ideas for supporting future robotic missions to the Red Planet. https://cosmiclog.com/2024/05/03/starlink-on-mars-nasa-is-paying-spacex-to-look-into-it/

We're about to get our first taste of the far side of the Moon.

This morning, China's Chang'e-6 spacecraft set off to collect samples of the lunar farside & bring them back to Earth. The complex mission includes a drill, a scoop, and a mini rover.

There’s a tiny but measurable threat posed by stellar cataclysms such as supernovae and related phenomena such as gamma-ray bursts.⁠

If close enough, these events can disturb telescopes and even damage the ozone layer.⁠
