A team of international scientists, led by the University of Trento, Italy, has made a major discovery about the Moon. For the first time, they have confirmed the existence of a tunnel in the lunar subsurface, likely an empty lava tube. This significant research, published in Nature Astronomy, is the result of an international collaboration.

The universe, at 13.8 billion years old, has evolved from tiny initial asymmetries into vast structures visible through telescopes: galaxies, galaxy clusters, and larger formations. This evolution is influenced by a cosmic struggle between dark matter, which holds matter together through gravity, and dark energy, which pushes the universe apart.

Researchers using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope have confirmed atmospheric differences between the perpetual morning and evening sides of the exoplanet WASP-39 b. This gas giant, with a diameter 1.3 times that of Jupiter but a mass similar to Saturn, orbits a star 700 light-years away and is tidally locked, meaning it has a permanent dayside and nightside.
