Scientists find galaxy supercluster as massive as 26 quadrillion suns
Astronomers have discovered a treasure trove of 662 new galactic superclusters, the most prominent of which, the Einasto Supercluster, contains a staggering mass equivalent to 26 quadrillion suns.
Webb Telescope Measures Universe’s Expansion
Astronomers have used the Webb telescope to observe Cepheid variable stars, ruling out one source of the prevailing "Hubble tension.”
Arrokoth the 'space snowman' and other Kuiper Belt objects may be packed with ancient ice
"Space snowman" Arrokoth a other Kuiper Belt objects may contain locked-up ancient ice and gas, suggests a new model that could also explain the explosive behavior of "ice bomb" comets passing the sun.
DARPA picks Northrop Grumman to develop 'lunar raiload' concept

Citizen Scientists Find Fifteen “Active Asteroids”
Nature often defies our simple explanations. Take comets and asteroids, for example. Comets are icy and have tails; asteroids are rocky and don’t have tails. But it might not be quite so simple, according to new research.
Full Worm Moon brings 1st lunar eclipse of 2024 next week. Here's how to see it
Two weeks before the total solar eclipse, during the overnight hours of March 24 - 25, it will be the moon's turn to undergo an eclipse.
Astronomers Find the Most Massive Supercluster to Date
The Earth’s place in space is a fairly familiar one with it orbiting an average star. The star – our Sun – orbits the centre of our Galaxy the Milky Way. From here onwards, the story is less well known. The Milky Way is part of a large structure called the Laniakea Supercluster which is 250 million light years across! That really is a whacking great area of space and it contains at least 100,000 galaxies. There are larger superclusters though like the newly discovered Einasto Supercluster which measures an incredible 360 million light years across and is home to 26 quadrillion stars!
One Impact on Mars Produced More than Two Billion Secondary Craters
There are plenty of craters on Mars, especially when compared to Earth. That is primarily thanks to the lack of weathering forces and strong plate tectonics that disrupt the formations of such impacts on our home planet. However, not all impact craters on Mars are directly caused by asteroid impacts. Many of them are caused by the ejecta from an asteroid impact falling back to the planet. One recent study showed how impactful this can be – it concludes that a single large impact crater on Mars created over two billion other smaller craters up to almost 2000 km away.
A new ultrablack coating for telescopes could bring more stars into focus
Next-gen telescopes could see a much clearer picture using a new thin film coating that's incredibly dark.
Gravity From Mars has an Effect on Earth’s Oceans
We are all too familiar of the Moon’s effect on our planet. It’s relentless tug causes our tides but even Mars, which is always at least 55 million kilometres away, can have a subtle effect too. A study has revealed a 2.4 million year cycle in the geological records that show the gentle warming and cooling of our oceans. The records match the interactions between the orbits of Earth and Mars over the longest timescales. These are known as the ‘astronomical grand cycles’ but to date, not much evidence has been found.

Earth’s Long-Term Habitability Relies on Chemical Cycles. How Can We Better Understand Them?
We, and all other complex life, require stability to evolve. Planetary conditions needed to be benign and long-lived for creatures like us and our multicellular brethren to appear and to persist. On Earth, chemical cycling provides much of the needed stability.
