Why do astronomers believe in dark matter?
Astronomers discovered the first exoplanet in a habitable zone with water in its atmosphere
Astronomers discovered water vapor in the atmosphere of super-earth K2-18b, an exoplanet that is orbiting its host star in the habitable zone. According to scientists, k2-18b might potentially be the most habitable out of all exoplanets that have been discovered up until this day. The researchers published their findings in the science journal Nature Astronomy
Fascinating new study postulates that black holes might consist of dark energy!
Astrophysicists normally assume that huge systems like the universe, are indifferent to details of smaller systems contained within it. Scientists from the University of Hawaii at Manoa (Kevin Croker and Joel Weiner) have shown that this hypothesis can fail when it comes to compact objects that remain after the collapse and explosion of huge stars.
The Spaceline: an Elevator From the Earth to the Moon
Space elevators are a fascinating concept as they will bring down the cost of space travel enormously. If we really want space travel to become available for the masses in the future we should invest in this concept. Two astronomers recently proposed a new concept building on the idea of a space elevator called a spaceline. Enjoy this curated article on the subject:

Why we need to get back to Venus
Venus is the second planet from the sun, and in addition to its similar chemical makeup, it is approximately the same size and mass as Earth. It’s sometimes even called ‘Earth’s sister planet’. Although it is a fascinating planet, it has been ignored in the past few decades. Is it time for a new Venus exploration mission? Enjoy this curated article
