Will You Still Need Me? Now I’m sixty-four.

One more time around the Sun … could it ever get old?

Still, so much to say. Still, so much to do. Despite life’s grief, despite dashed expectations. I will always love us.

Ten Versions of Earth's Future Can Help Us Hunt for ET December 4, 2025
Searching for technosignatures - signs of technology on a planet that we can see from afr - remains a difficult task. There are so many different factors to consider, and we only have the technological capabilities to detect a relatively small collection of them. A new paper, available in pre-print on arXiv but also accepted […]
Helium Streams Observed on Super-Puff Exoplanet December 4, 2025
What can an exoplanet leaking helium teach astronomers about the formation and evolution of exoplanet atmospheres? This is what a recent study published in Nature Astronomy hopes to address as an international team of scientists investigated atmospheric escape on a puffy exoplanet. This study has the potential to help scientists better understand the formation and […]
A Blueprint For Visiting An Interstellar Comet December 3, 2025
arXiv:2512.00492v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We describe how the ESA Comet Interceptor mission, which is due to launch in 2028/29 to a yet-to-be-discovered target, can provide a conceptual basis for a future mission to visit an Interstellar Object. Comet Interceptor will wait in space until a suitable long period comet is discovered, allowing rapid response […]
The JWST Discovered Another Perplexing Early Galaxy December 3, 2025
The JWST has made a name for itself by discovering mature galaxies in the Universe's early times. This time, a pair of Indian astronomers working with the JWST found a fully-formed spiral galaxy much like the Milky Way only 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang. The discovery, and others like it, are forcing scientists […]
We Are Moving Through The Universe Faster Than We Thought December 3, 2025
We've long known that we move through the Universe relative to the cosmic microwave background, but a new study of radio galaxies finds an even faster result, which could contradict the standard model of cosmology.
