AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoSpace Milestone: Voyager 1 is nearing a light-day from Earth—about 16 billion miles away—where a radio signal will take roughly 24 hours to travel one way. JWST Discovery: The telescope has detected a long-predicted signal from trihydrogen in gas around newborn stars, offering a new way to study these turbulent regions and raising questions about how the signal forms. Planetary Science: An exoplanet that seemed to disappear from view is likely still there: researchers say an unseen companion is tilting its orbit, making its transits harder to observe. Earth Science: Researchers have identified fairy-circle patterns in northern China’s drylands and used statistical physics to explore how they form. Astrobiology: A computer simulation of Earth without life could help astronomers tell which atmospheric signs on distant planets might point to biology.
