A professional/amateur collaboration finds a previously unknown nebula. It’s weird, and gorgeous.
These weird features may be due to sinkholes. Also some news on ISS and spacesuits and asteroid hunters.
Time to rethink some more astronomy names. Plus a distant huge black hole, and Mars gets whacked a lot
The stars are so young they’re not even really stars yet
Plus: Venus meteors and a pair of supermassive black holes at the edge of the Universe
A gorgeous galaxy and a sweaty planet
Get more BAN for less money! Plus actual astronomy stuff, like the solstice, and radiation hitting the Curiosity Mars rover
A new study says 2.25 times the mass of the Sun, give or take. Any more, and you get a black hole.
Also: A planet found using astrometry, and where does the Sun’s magnetic field originate?
Also a new cool hot planet, a satellite made of wood (yes, seriously), and an interesting carbon capture idea
Pretty cool, though not enough to make a snowman unless you have a really wide plow
We can get pretty cool shots of tiny, distant objects from Earth sometimes
