Physics-Astronomy.com: It's Official: Astronomers Have Discovered another Earth on October 14, 2019

NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope discovered an Earth-like planet circling a nearby star within the Goldilocks zone of our galaxy. Kepler-186f is around 500 light-years from Earth in the Cygnus constellation. The habitable zone, also identified as the Goldilocks zone, is the area around a star within which planetary-mass objects with enough atmospheric pressure can sustain liquid water at their surfaces.

Daily Mail Online: Construction workers building a roundabout in Massachusetts uncover remains of an ancient village | November 8th, 2019

While working to dig out space for a new traffic roundabout, construction workers in the small Massachusetts town of Northampton made a surprising discovery. Instead of dirt and rocks they found spearheads and stone tools dating as far back as 8,000 to 10,000 years, a period of North American history about which relatively little is known. After discovering the artifacts, the city hired an excavation firm, Archaeological and Historical Services, Inc. to do a thorough dig at the site.

Daily Mail Online:NASA chief Jim Bridenstine says 'Pluto is a planet' AGAIN | November 6th, 2019

NASA chief Jim Bridenstine doubles down on claim Pluto is a planet, citing its moons, oceans and organic compounds. Pluto was downgraded from the ninth planet to a dwarf planet 13 years ago – but a NASA expert refuses to accept the change. Jim Bridenstine reignited the debate by stating Pluto should be a planet because it has an ocean under its surface, organic compounds on its surface and its own moons. He also noted that if experts at if experts are going to follow the true definition of a planet, which states it needs to clear its orbit around the sun, then we 'could really undercut all the planets’. This is the second time in just a few months that Bridenstine has advocated for the distant world to be reinstated with its original title.

The Independent: Nasa gets inexplicable new data showing unexpected oxygen fluctuations on Mars | November 13th, 2019

NASA has spotted unexpected and inexplicable changes in the oxygen on Mars. The discovery comes after the space agency used the Curiosity rover to measure the seasonal changes in the gas that fills the air above the Gale Crater on Mars, for the first time ever. But the data sent back from the planet has left the scientists who received it stumped. They say there is no known explanation for the unusual fluctuations in the oxygen on the planet.

Futurism: A SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLE YEETED THIS STAR AT 3.7 MILLION MPH | November 13th, 2019

Five million years ago, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way sent an unfortunate star rocketing away at millions of miles per hour. The star, recently spotted by Carnegie Mellon University astronomers, is on its way out of the galaxy at 3.7 million miles per hour — a speed so high that it will never return, according to Space.com. Putting aside how metal it is that a black hole ejected a star from the galaxy, the discovery also helped astronomers confirm a whole slew of hypotheses about how stars and giant black holes can interact.
