Nearly four kilometres beneath the Antarctic ice sheet lies Lake Vostok, a hidden lake the size of a small sea. It has been cut off from sunlight and the atmosphere for hundreds of thousands, and perhaps millions, of years — making it one of Earth’s closest rehearsals for the buried oceans of Europa and Enceladus, where any life would also have to survive in darkness beneath a frozen shell. The Sun is not standing still. It is carrying the entire Solar System around the centre of the Milky Way, and one lap takes roughly 230 million years. The last time we were this far around the galaxy, Earth was in the Triassic Period and the very first dinosaurs were only just beginning to walk. A total solar eclipse is only possible because of a cosmic coincidence: the Moon is about 400 times smaller than the Sun but also about 400 times closer, making the two look almost the same size from Earth. But the Moon is slowly drifting away, so this alignment will not last forever. One day, hundreds of millions of years from now, the last total solar eclipse will pass across the planet, and no one will ever see the Moon fully cover the Sun again. The Moon looks white in the night sky, but its surface is closer in color to a worn asphalt road — and it appears bright enough to read by on a clear night not because the surface is bright, but because the Moon is so close and fully sunlit that even a surface reflecting just 12 percent of incoming light becomes one of the brightest objects in the sky When Zhang Chenxing, who holds a PhD from MIT, co-founded Mega Engine Technology in Xi’an in early 2024, China’s high-pressure oxygen-rich staged-combustion know-how sat almost entirely inside state propulsion houses — and by May 2026 his startup had logged 1,000 seconds of accumulated test time on a closed-cycle kerolox engine The leading explanation for how the Moon was born is that a world the size of Mars called Theia slammed into the young Earth and flung out the debris that became the Moon, and recent research suggests Theia itself never fully left, with two continent-sized blobs buried near our planet’s core possibly being the last remains of the world that struck us. Earth’s magnetic field has flipped hundreds of times, swapping magnetic north and south in a switch locked into ancient rock, and it happens on no fixed schedule, yet nothing in the record suggests a single flip ever wiped out life. Zealandia, the submerged continent geologists confirmed in 2017, is 94 percent underwater and stretches nearly two million square miles beneath the South Pacific, yet its modern name was quietly proposed by geophysicist Bruce Luyendyk in 1995 New Zealand and New Caledonia are the only large fragments of Zealandia still poking above the ocean, meaning the country most travellers think of as a pair of islands is actually the exposed mountain peaks of a continent five times their size. A rainbow is not actually located in any specific place in the sky — every person watching the same rainbow is seeing a slightly different one, formed by different raindrops, and if two people stood next to each other looking at the same rainbow, the rainbows they are seeing would be technically different, with no two viewers in the world ever sharing the exact same rainbowSpace News
