Mars looks dead. A frozen desert of dust, radiation, and silence.
But beneath its surface… we are finding oceans that once flowed, rivers that carved the land, and chemical fingerprints that look disturbingly familiar.
If life ever existed on Mars, it may not just answer where we came from— it may tell us we were never alone.
The first photo of Jupiter, taken in 1879 by Irish astronomer Agnes Mary Clerke, was a blurry black-and-white image published in her astronomy book.
Today, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope captures stunning blue-tinted views of the planet. These 2020s photos are so sharp they even reveal glowing auroras at Jupiter’s north and south poles.
Red sprites are fascinating, high-altitude electrical discharges that occur above thunderstorms. They are part of a group of phenomena called transient luminous events (TLEs) and are typically triggered by powerful lightning strikes. Unlike ordinary lightning, red sprites appear in the mesosphere, between 50 and 90 kilometers (31 to 56 miles) above the Earth's surface.
The South Pole–Aitken Basin, the largest known impact crater on the Moon, hides an astonishing 2.18 quintillion kilograms of metal deep below. What could possibly cause such an anomaly?
Imagine Mars, a barren wasteland today, with rusty plains, towering dust storms, and a sky almost silent. But, billions of years ago, Mars was very different. It boasted a dense atmosphere and liquid water flowing freely across its surface. Rivers carved valleys, and vast lakes and shallow seas mirrored a younger Sun. But now, most of that water is hidden beneath the ground, locked away in massive underground reservoirs.
Recently, scientists discovered something incredible—an enormous reservoir of liquid water, buried miles beneath the Martian surface. This hidden lake is so vast that, if spread over the entire planet, it could create an ocean up to a mile deep. This discovery sheds light on a mystery that has puzzled us for ages: Where did Mars’ water go?

is our universe unique? From science fiction to science fact, there is a concept that suggests that there could be other universes besides our own, where all the choices you made in this life played out in alternate realities. The concept is known as a "parallel universe," and is a facet of the astronomical theory of the multiverse.
