Giant Ancient Collision May Have ‘Flipped’ the Moon’s Interior, Study Suggests
Scientists analyzing lunar samples from China’s Chang’e-6 mission have uncovered evidence of a colossal ancient asteroid impact. Elevated levels of heavy potassium isotopes suggest extreme heating that drove lighter elements into space, potentially explaining why the Moon’s far side lacks dark volcanic plains seen on the near side.

Astronomers Detect Rare Rogue Planet Drifting Alone 10,000 Light-Years from Earth
Astronomers have confirmed a rare rogue planet, drifting without a star nearly 10,000 light-years away. Using gravitational microlensing, their distance and mass were measured, suggesting that free-floating planets may be abundant across the Milky Way. Upcoming telescopes, including NASA’s Roman Space Telescope and China’s Earth 2.0 mission, ar...
