A tiny NASA satellite was launched Saturday from New Zealand with the mission of improving climate change prediction by measuring heat escaping from Earth's poles for the first time. "This new information - and we've never had it before - will improve our ability to model what's happening in the poles, what's happening in climate," NASA's earth sciences research director Karen St. Germain

Using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and W.M. Keck Observatory on Mauna Kea in Hawaii, an astronomer at the University of Kansas has led a study revealing 15 new exoplanets and determining the mass of 126 others. The findings provide new insights into the composition of exoplanets and their star systems. The study, part of the TESS-Keck Survey, is published in T
