A child who can see 250 stars today may see fewer than 100 from the same place at eighteen: 51,351 naked-eye observations found the night sky brightening far faster than satellites had measured The Mission Robotic Vehicle launched on July 21 with two seven-jointed arms meant to inspect, relocate and upgrade ageing satellites; after a year-long trip, it is meant to test whether spacecraft can become serviceable infrastructure Titan is never the same distance from Earth twice: the gap can run from about 1.2 billion kilometres to nearly 1.65 billion depending on where both worlds sit in their orbits, stretching a signal’s one-way trip from just over an hour to past ninety minutes Mercury is the Solar System’s smallest planet, but its metallic core fills about 85 per cent of its radius, leaving a rocky shell so thin that cooling has crumpled the surface into cliffs hundreds of kilometres long Saudi Arabia sits on the world’s largest sand desert and yet imports construction sand from Australia, because the wind-rounded grains of the Empty Quarter are too smooth to bind in concrete and modern construction needs the jagged sand pulled from riverbeds and quarries Voyager 1 is down to two working science instruments, and the fix that just bought its twin, Voyager 2, another year of power is now being tested on a probe NASA says no longer behaves quite like its sibling In 1868, French astronomer Pierre Janssen pointed a spectroscope at a solar eclipse in India and saw a yellow line that matched no known element on Earth, and the gas he identified in the Sun’s chromosphere — named helium, after helios — would not be found on this planet for another 27 years, when a Scottish chemist finally coaxed it from a lump of uranium ore Some of the loneliest people in their fifties aren’t the ones without partners or children, they’re the ones surrounded by people who only know the version of them that shows up when everyone else needs something Quote by Carl Jung: The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely The Greenland shark grows about one centimetre per year and does not reach sexual maturity until roughly age 150, meaning the pups being born in the North Atlantic this year will not breed until the 22nd century
