Habitable Zone Explained: The ‘Goldilocks Zone’ Where Life-Friendly Planets May Exist
The habitable zone, or “Goldilocks zone”, is the region around a star where conditions allow liquid water to exist. Varying with star type, this zone is key in the search for life. Earth’s location in the Sun’s habitable zone has made life possible, and astronomers seek similar rocky exoplanets in other systems to explore the possibility of...

Scientists Explore Role of Space Radiation in Powering Alien Microbial Life
A new study proposes that life may exist far from sunlight in a “radiolytic habitable zone” deep beneath the icy surfaces of Mars, Europa, and Enceladus. Cosmic rays, which can penetrate rock and ice, break water molecules apart to release hydrogen, oxygen, and energy-rich electrons. These can fuel microbes in subsurface water, much like bacter...

NASA’s RASSOR Robot Digs Deep into Moon Mining Future with Successful Test
NASA’s RASSOR robot recently underwent testing at Kennedy Space Center, successfully excavating simulated lunar soil with its unique counterrotating drums. This trial validates RASSOR’s traction and digging capabilities, paving the way for IPEx—the next-gen, autonomous excavator designed to harvest Moon resources like oxygen and water. The te...

New Study Suggests Yellowstone May Help Solve the World’s Helium Crisis
A new geological study reveals that Yellowstone National Park may harbor a valuable source of carbon-free helium, a gas crucial for medical devices, space missions, and quantum technologies. Traditionally extracted alongside fossil fuels, helium is in global shortage and poses environmental concerns when sourced conventionally. Scientists have iden...

NASA’s Lunar Space Station Module Enters Final Phase Before Artemis Gateway Launch
NASA’s HALO module, a key element of the Artemis Gateway, has arrived at Northrop Grumman in Arizona for final outfitting. The module will support astronauts with living and working spaces in lunar orbit. Outfitting includes critical systems for power, life support, and communications, marking a major milestone toward NASA’s long-term lunar mis...

Water on Ancient Mars? New Study Challenges the Cold Planet Theory
Scientists have uncovered compelling evidence suggesting that early Mars was surprisingly wet, featuring extensive networks of lakes and river basins shaped by rainfall and snowfall. This challenges long-held views of a predominantly cold and icy ancient Mars. Despite current climate models struggling to explain sustained liquid water on the Red Pl...

Engineers Create New Ways to Shape Bread-Derived Carbon Electrodes for Sustainable Use
A team of engineers has developed two innovative ways to shape carbon electrodes made from bread. The methods involve molding with 3D-printed forms and blending bread with water before heating it in an oxygen-free environment. These techniques improve electrode precision and durability, offering an eco-friendly alternative for applications like des...

New Farm Fertilizer Could Remove CO2 from Air, Improve Soil Quality
Researchers have identified a method to accelerate carbon mineralisation using calcium silicates in farm fertilizers. The process could sequester billions of tons of CO2 while benefiting soil health. Unlike traditional magnesium silicates, calcium silicates react faster with CO2, making the approach more efficient. Scientists are exploring ways to ...
