Scientist commissions local artist for solar system design

Rick Clark with the solar system art he created on a black walnut plank, which caught the eye of NASA planetary scientist Hal Levison while he was in Lincoln.

Solar system scientist Hal Levison of Boulder, Colorado, was recently in downtown Lincoln to attend a recital by his daughter, Rachel Levison, who is working on a doctorate in clarinet performance at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, when he wandered into the Noyes Art Gallery during a break.

Astronomers Discover Planets In NASA Kepler's Final Days Of Observations - SpaceRef

A team of astrophysicists and citizen scientists have identified what may be some of the last planets NASA's retired Kepler space telescope observed during its nearly decade-long mission.

The trio of exoplanets – worlds beyond our solar system – are all between the size of Earth and Neptune and closely orbit their stars.

Tiny probe could measure asteroid gravity in a space 1st | Space

The European Space Agency (ESA) wants to land a tiny mobile phone-sized satellite on an asteroid to measure its gravity.

ESA has completed vacuum and vibration tests for its Gravimeter for Small Solar System Objects (GRASS) asteroid probe. GRASS is designed to measure surface gravity on the Dimorphos asteroid, which NASA's DART spacecraft collided with as a part of its mission last year.

What is the UFO orbiting the Earth?

This part was separated thousands of years ago. Scientists are now studying this separate part and its impact on Earth, after more than half a century of controversy.

That’s according to a new study from the Institute for Space Sciences in the US state of Colorado of a lost part of the moon orbiting planet Earth. Its name is “Komo Oliwa”, and it separated from the moon a long time ago.. so it was called a “half moon”.

How does this relate to the search for habitable worlds? Well, scientists believe that Jupiter played a crucial role in the evolution of our Solar System, setting the stage for Earth's habitability.

Study Suggests Up To One Third Of Planets Could Be Habitable | SYFY WIRE

In SYFY's The Ark (streaming right now on Peacock !) a human crew boards an interstellar spaceship on a one-way trip to Proxima centauri. It's a small red dwarf, one of a binary pair approximately 4.2 light-years from here.

Because Proxima centauri is smaller and less luminous than the Sun, its habitable zone is much closer than ours. Proxima centauri b, the Earth-like planet the crew of the Ark One is headed for, orbits its star at a distance only about 5% the distance between the Earth and the Sun.

But at home, it is different. There’s no tax advantage in most places between owning a car and leasing it. Yet vendors want to adopt a rent-a-robot strategy. Case in point: a startup named Matician wants you to sign up for a robotic vacuum.
