More research will be needed to fully understood the relation between the HVCs distance from the star.
- Lead author, Dan Lallich, a planetary scientist from Cornell University, published new discovery using the data from Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding (MARSIS) instrument of European Space Agency (ESA)’s Mars Express orbiter regarding the Mars’s Ultima Scopuli south pole: it might signaled that liquid waters is a plausibility due to radar signal’s indication.
- With highest resolution as possible as they can use of, computer simulation made by Durham University’s Institute for Computational Cosmology using COSMA supercomputer suggest that a scenario, called ‘immediate-satellite scenario’, is plausible due to reason that proto-moon were less molten by the time of the impact with the earth, hence might suggest to why the surface of the Moon sample have quite stark similarity with Earth’s mantle crust element.
- Uranus’s weird 98 degrees tilt might be explained by long-lost moon huge kinetic impact toward the planet at the right time at the newly-born universe timely.
- SpaceX’s Falcon 9 carrying Starlink group 4–29 launched from Vanderberg Space Force Base’s Space Launch Complex-4E (SLC-4E) just 7 hours after Crew Dragon 5’s launch into orbit.
- Due to planet’s free-floating as a result of gravitational liberation in the most populous star-forming free-forming region, somehow the massive gravitational power of other stars might be able to capture that planet and harnessing it’s own solar system region.
- On 29 September 2022, NASA’s Juno spacecraft have captured an image of Europa’s Jupiter moon surface, which to cite from Space.com, “depicts an area 93 miles (150 kilometers) long and 125 miles (200 km) wide, also reveals a strange depression shaped like a musical quarter note sprawling for 42 miles (67 km) from north to south and for 23 miles (37 km) from east to west in the lower half of the image. The tiny white dots scattered all over the image, scientists said in a statement, are “signatures of penetrating high-energy particles from the severe radiation environment around the moon.””. It was imaged using Juno’s Stellar Reference Unit (SRU) camera from night light at velocity of 24 km/s (15 miles/s) at 412 km (256 miles) above the icy moon shell.
