A study conducted by three Brazilian researchers offers robust evidence of this earlier structuring. Reported in an article published in the journal Icarus , the study was supported by São Paulo Research Foundation—FAPESP. The authors are all affiliated with São Paulo State University's Engineering School (FEG-UNESP) in Guaratinguetá (Brazil).
The lead author is Rafael Ribeiro de Sousa. The other two authors are André Izidoro Ferreira da Costa and Ernesto Vieira Neto, principal investigator for the study.

The Freshest Mineral Water in the Solar System - Eos
Enceladus, a small moon of Saturn, shows remarkable activity for its size and likely possesses an ocean. Notably, a series of subparallel ridges at the south pole were seen by NASA’s Cassini spacecraft to be venting copious water-rich plumes into space. How these plumes originate and what geochemical processes was the water subjected to before eruption are currently uncertain, and Cassini could only see and sniff (via mass spectrometry) Enceladus from the outside.

Almost 140 new minor planets spotted in the outer solar system
After six years of staring at the sky, DES had plenty of data for astronomers to pore over. For the new study, scientists at the University of Pennsylvania took the first four years of that data and applied new analysis techniques to allow objects moving across the sky to be spotted.
Initially the team started with 7 billion dots, representing all kinds of astronomical objects in the survey's field of vision. The first step was to ignore any dots that were in the same spot over multiple nights – these were likely to be stars, galaxies, supernovae and other things that DES was originally looking for.

Remember When Japan Blasted an Asteroid? Here's What We Learned - The New York Times
Japan's space agency was not declaring war. The bombardment was part of the work of Hayabusa2, a robotic space probe that is gathering hints about the origins of the solar system by studying the rocky object, Ryugu. It is a type of asteroid that is full of carbon molecules known as organics, including possibly amino acids, the building blocks of proteins.
The mission also provides information that could help defend our planet in the future. Ryugu, a diamond-shaped body more than half a mile wide, is among the asteroids that swing inside the orbit of Earth as they travel around the sun. Ryugu itself is not expected to collide with our planet anytime soon, but other similar asteroids might.
Ever considered going solar, even while practicing social distancing?

SAN ANTONIO – We are all about "social distancing" right now, and spending all of our time at home, but that doesn't mean you can't let the sunshine in.
