could help to discern some of the physical processes that govern planet formation. Here we analyse radial-velocity data obtained by the HARPS and ESPRESSO spectrographs and report the detection of BEBOP-1 c, a gas giant planet with a mass of 65.2 ± 11.8 Earth masses (M⊕) orbit...

thechemical elementsheavier than hydrogen and helium, which were formed during the Big Bang, are defined as metals. These heavier chemical elements were produced during the nucleosynthesis of massive stars that exploded as supernovae.
(published in 2019 as anillustrated, 426-page report) calls for a massive telescope mirror as big as 15 meters, almost 50 feet, in diameter. That would be six times larger than the Hubble Space Telescope mirror and more than twice the size of the 6.5-meter Webb telescope. The most ...
After spending a year gazing at Vesta,NASA's Dawn spacecraftwas set to cruise toward the most massive space rock in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter — a voyage that will take nearly three years. Firing its ion propulsion thrusters, Dawn had been slowly spiraling away...
And if you try to, really work at it, you’ll most likely die. I believe in nature. I can go to the fire shouting “The laws of nature! The laws of nature!” Hooray! #2. It’s all gray area. There are (almost) no absolutes. Outside the laws of nature, that is. Usually...
