Cancer also possesses one of the most studied exoplanets: the superhot super-Earth, 55 Cancri e. Find Cancer’s dim stars by looking in between the brighterContinue reading “Dim Delights in Cancer”

Solving Asteroid Bennu’s Mysteries

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY These X-ray computed tomography (XCT) scans released on March 17, 2026, give us a glimpse inside asteroid Bennu. They show the most common types of crack networks observed in Bennu samples; these networks solved a mystery that baffled NASA for years. When NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft first approached asteroid Bennu in 2018, scientists expected to see smooth,Continue reading “Solving Asteroid Bennu’s Mysteries”
