Dartmouth Study Suggests Volcanic Activity, Not Asteroid, May Have Caused Dinosaur Extinction

Broke On: Monday, 27 November 2023 Dartmouth College scientists used a computer model to suggest that volcanic activity, not an asteroid impact, was the primary cause of the mass extinction that ended the age of dinosaurs. The model calculated over 300,000 possible scenarios of carbon dioxide emissions, sulfur dioxide emissions, and biological productivity in the 1 million years before and after the K-Pg extinction event. The asteroid impact hypothesis was first proposed by physicist Luis Alvarez and his geologist son Walter Alvarez in the early 1980s.

NASA's Psyche Spacecraft Achieves Record Distance in Laser Communication

Broke On: Tuesday, 21 November 2023 NASA's Psyche spacecraft has successfully transmitted a near-infrared laser across a record distance of nearly 16 million kilometers. The primary goal of the Psyche spacecraft is to investigate the metallic asteroid Psyche, which will help us understand the evolution of planet formation and core dynamics. The successful use of near-infrared laser technology for deep-space communication is a first for NASA, and it opens up the possibility for much higher data streaming capacities for future space missions.

James Webb Telescope Captures Detailed Image of Milky Way's Core

Broke On: Wednesday, 22 November 2023 The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a detailed image of the Sagittarius C region near the core of the Milky Way galaxy. The image reveals a massive protostar more than 30 times the size of our Sun. The star-forming region, Sagittarius C (Sgr C), is about 300 light-years from the Milky Way's central supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*.
