What are the chances that a primordial black hole forged in the earliest moments of the universe will come wandering toward Earth?

The ESA are asking astronaut applicants to be patient as they process more than 23,000 applications. The deadline for submissions was in late June, but thousands are still waiting to discover if they’ve made the cut.

There's no consensus yet on how supermassive black holes form, but a new mesmerizing simulation is taking a crack at that question like never before.

Earlier this month, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published its latest assessment report laying out the accumulating evidence of the climate crisis. The report identifies Earth observing satellites as a critical tool to monitor the causes and effects of climate change and directly acknowledges the contribution of ESA’s Climate Change Initiative – a research programme that draws on observations from multiple satellite missions.

Several NASA employees and a "Star Trek" actor gathered virtually in a panel to celebrate diversity on what would have been the 100th birthday of the franchise's creator, Gene Roddenberry.
