NASA Research Shows Path Toward Protocells on Titan
NASA research has shown that cell-like compartments called vesicles could form naturally in the lakes of Saturn's moon Titan.
Titan is the only world apart from Earth that is known to have liquid on its surface. However, Titan's lakes and seas are not filled with water. Instead, they contain liquid hydrocarbons like ethane and methane.
On Earth, liquid water is thought to have been e Rare Trans Neptunian Object Reveals Unexpected Orbital Dance with Neptune
A rare celestial body drifting far beyond Neptune, designated 2020 VN40, has been identified by astronomers from the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard and Smithsonian as the first confirmed object to complete one orbit around the sun for every ten orbits made by Neptune. This discovery adds a new chapter to the understanding of orbital resonances in the outer solar system.

Subaru Telescope has uncovered a rare celestial object far beyond Pluto, offering new insights into the ancient history and structure of the outer Solar System. Discovered through the FOSSIL survey project, the object-designated 2023 KQ14-was identified in observations from March to August 2023.
FOSSIL (Formation of the Outer Solar System: An Icy Legacy) leverages the wide-field capabiliti UCF researchers developing new methods to passively mitigate lunar dust for space exploration
Lunar dust is more than a mild irritant or hallmark of an untidy room like dust found on Earth.
Lunar dust particles are sharp and abrasive due to the lack of atmosphere gradually dulling their surfaces, leading them to potentially damaging critical lunar equipment or causing respiratory issues for astronauts. Managing lunar dust (also known as regolith) and safeguarding astronauts or sens Supersonic gas filaments discovered in fast-moving Milky Way cloud
A team of astronomers has revealed an intricate network of supersonic gas filaments within a very-high-velocity cloud (VHVC) in the Milky Way, using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). The discovery sheds new light on the dynamic structure of the interstellar medium in the galaxy's quieter outer regions.

July will see the launch of the groundbreaking Solar EruptioN Integral Field Spectrograph mission, or SNIFS. Delivered to space via a Black Brant IX sounding rocket, SNIFS will explore the energy and dynamics of the chromosphere, one of the most complex regions of the Sun's atmosphere. The SNIFS mission's launch window at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico opens on Friday, July 18.
