How To Terraform Venus (Quickly)
Leaving earth to find new homes in space is an old dream of humanity and will sooner or later be necessary for our survival. The planet that gets the most attention is Mars, a small, toxic and energy poor planet that just about seems good enough for a colony of depressed humans huddled in underground cities.
But what if we think bigger? What if we take Venus, one of the most hostile and deadly places in the solar system and turn it into a colony? Not by building lofty cloud cities, but by creating a proper second earth? It might be easier than you think.

Methane Detected on Enceladus Could Actually Be a Sign of Life, Study Shows
When the Cassini-Huygens probe dove through the salty plumes belching from the interior of Saturn's moon Enceladus, it made an unexpected detection: a collection of compounds that are also associated with hydrothermal vents on Earth's ocean floor.

Kepler Seems to Have Detected a Bunch of Rogue Planets Drifting Through The Galaxy
When a star is born, the leftover dust and gas in the cloud from which it formed doesn't just sit there. It clumps together, forming other cosmic objects - asteroids and comets and meteors and, yes, exoplanets. We've detected many of these exoplane

Ingenuity’s ninth flight provided imagery that will help the Perseverance rover team develop its science plan going forward
Images snapped on July 5 by NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter on its ambitious ninth flight have offered scientists and engineers working with the agency’s Perseverance Mars rover an unprecedented opportunity to scout out the road ahead. Ingenuity provided new insight into where different rock layers begin and end, each layer serving as a time capsule for how conditions in the ancient climate changed at this location. The flight also revealed obstacles the rover may have to drive around as it explores Jezero Crater.
