NASA Missions Uncover a Diverse Galaxy of Super-Earths, Raising New Questions About Planetary Evolution
Super-Earths are among the most common planets in the galaxy, yet none exist in our solar system. Larger than Earth but smaller than Neptune, they range from ocean-covered worlds to scorched, atmosphere-less rocks. Some orbit within habitable zones, making them prime candidates for life. NASA’s Kepler and TESS missions, along with upcoming telesc...

Chang'e-6 Mission Reveals Significant Reinforcement of Lunar Dynamo
The Chang'e-6 mission has provided crucial insights into the lunar dynamo’s evolution, revealing a surprising magnetic field strength of 5 to 21 microteslas (µT) around 2.8 billion years ago. This challenges previous assumptions that the lunar dynamo weakened after 3 billion years ago. The findings suggest that mechanisms such as a basal magma o...
