    New High-Resolution Images of Europa's Platypus Region Reveal Potential Targets for Future Missions

    Broke On: Thursday, 29 September 2022 NASA's Juno spacecraft captures high-resolution images of Jupiter's moon Europa, revealing a chaotic terrain named 'Platypus.' This area may indicate the presence of briny liquid seeping to the surface and is a potential target for NASA's Europa Clipper mission and ESA's JUICE mission. The images also show possible plume activity and dark stains, hinting at present-day surface activity. Juno's data provides valuable information for future missions exploring Europa, which could reveal more about life beyond Earth.

    New Discovery: Super-Earth 55 Cancri e Boasts Two Atmospheres

    Broke On: Wednesday, 08 May 2024 The James Webb Space Telescope discovered that exoplanet 55 Cancri e, a super-Earth located 41 light-years away, has two atmospheres. The first was destroyed by its host star's radiation but was regained. The second is a thick layer of gases possibly replenished by a magma ocean. This groundbreaking discovery provides valuable insights into exoplanet atmospheres and could be a step towards finding habitable planets.
