Researchers at the China Institute of Atomic Energy (CIAE) have significantly enhanced the method of detecting iron-60 (60Fe), a rare isotope found in lunar samples, using the HI-13 tandem accelerator. This achievement paves the way for detecting 60Fe in lunar samples for a deeper understanding of cosmic events like supernovae that occurred millions of years ago.

The Euclid space telescope has discovered seven more rogue planets, shining a light on the dark and lonely worlds floating freely through the universe untethered to any star.
Without being bound to a star, as the Earth is to the Sun, there are no days or years on these planets, which languish in perpetual night.
Yet scientists believe there is a chance they could be able to host life -

Metals get softer when they are heated, which is how blacksmiths can form iron into complex shapes by heating it red hot. And anyone who compares a copper wire with a steel coat hanger will quickly discern that copper is much more pliable than steel.
