Planetary boundary layer revealed: satellites illuminate atmospheric mysteries
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Unlocking the secrets of Earth's planetary boundary layer (PBL), a pivotal zone influencing air quality and climate, a new study offers unprecedented insights into atmospheric thermal contrasts (TC). By scrutinizing satellite data, researchers have shed light on how the surface-to-atmosphere temperature gradient affects the detection of atmospheric pollutants.

Observatorio Gemini y Subaru unen fuerzas para descubrir la primera pareja de cuásares en el principio del Universo
NSF's NOIRLab

Un equipo de astrónomos descubrió una pareja de cuásares en fusión que bate todos los récords, ya que no sólo se trata de la más distante detectada hasta ahora, sino también del único par de este tipo que se encuentra en una de las épocas más tempranas del Universo. El hallazgo fue posible con la ayuda del poderoso instrumento GNIRS que se encuentra instalado en el telescopio de Gemini Norte, la mitad boreal del Observatorio Internacional Gemini, financiado en parte por la Fundación Nacional de Ciencias de Estados Unidos y operado por NOIRLab de NSF.

Watery planets orbiting dead stars may be good candidates for studying life — if they can survive long enough
University of Wisconsin–Madison

The small footprint and dim light of white dwarfs, remnants of stars that have burned through their fuel, may make excellent backdrops for studying planets with enough water to harbor life. The trick is spotting the shadow of a planet against a former star that has withered to a fraction of its size and finding that it’s a planet that has kept its water oceans for billions of years even after riding out the star’s explosive and violent final throes.

Wind from black holes may influence development of surrounding galaxies
University of Wisconsin–Madison

Clouds of gas in a distant galaxy are being pushed faster and faster — at more than 10,000 miles per second — out among neighboring stars by blasts of radiation from the supermassive black hole at the galaxy’s center. It’s a discovery that helps illuminate the way active black holes can continuously shape their galaxies by spurring on or snuffing out the development of new stars.

First study of civilian space crew charts course for research as commercial flight heats up
Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania

As a new space race revs up, propelling humans back to the Moon and toward a Mars landing for the first time, mysteries remain about the unique pressures of spaceflight on humans – especially for those blasting off through new commercial space travel operations. For the first time, researchers have data on the physical and psychological impact of spaceflight on an all-civilian crew.
