Alien worlds could be discovered by hunting for debris orbiting them
You have to look for the clues that the protoplanet exists, not for the protoplanet itself.
Climate 'points of no return' may be much closer than we thought
A new study that reassessed decades of work of climate "tipping points" has revealed they are more numerous and closer to being triggered than researchers initially feared.

Ground teams at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan rolled a Soyuz rocket to its launch pad Sunday, moving a step closer to liftoff Wednesday with a team of two Russian cosmonauts and a NASA astronaut heading for the International Space Station, the first flight of a U.S. crew member on a Russian spacecraft since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Mars Might Have Been Covered in Lakes in the Ancient Past
Ever since robotic explorers began visiting the Red Planet during the 1960s and 70s, scientists have puzzled over Mars’ surface features. These included flow channels, valleys, lakebeds, and deltas that appear to have formed in the presence of water. Since then, dozens of missions have been sent to Mars to explore its atmosphere, surface, and climate to learn more about its warmer, wetter past. In particular, scientists want to know how long water flowed on the surface of Mars and whether it was persistent or periodic in nature.
Satellites can now Measure the Thickness of Ice Sheets all Year Long
Artificial intelligence can do more than paint planets as bowls of soup. It’s now helping researchers acquire better climate change data by teaching Earth observation satellites how to measure ice thickness in the Arctic year-round.

The icy steps on these Mars plains may be ancient wind-blown dust
A high-definition Martian camera spotted icy ridges on the Red Planet interlaced with channels, which may show ancient proof of water or lava.
Astronauts could use Mars soil for 3D-printing on the Red Planet
Making things for Mars astronauts on-planet would be a boon for future human missions.
The First cry From a Brand new Baby Star
The early universe was a much different place than our own, and astronomers do not fully understand how baby stars grew up in that environment. And while instruments like the James Webb Space Telescope will pierce back into the earliest epochs of star formation, we don’t always have to work so hard – there may be clues closer to home.
A new way to Discover Planets? Astronomers Detect an Exoplanet by Seeing its Trojan Belts
Although we have found thousands of exoplanets in recent years, we really only have three methods of finding them. The first is to observe a star dimming slightly as a planet passes in front of it (transit method). The second is to measure the wobble of a star as an orbiting planet gives it a gravitational tug (Doppler method). The third is to observe the exoplanet directly. Now a new study in the Astrophysical Journal Letters has a fourth method.
