GiantRobotTRex, do astronomy w Airplane-size asteroid will have 'very close encounter' with Earth on Saturday — and you can watch it happen

Like a Cessna 172 size or an Airbus A380 size?

holycrap, do astronomy w James Webb telescope discovers the oldest, most distant black hole in the universe

…so far

This is cool

RizzRustbolt, do astronomy w Supermassive black hole spotted 12.9 billion light-years from Earth — and it's shooting a beam of energy right at us

Oh! That’s why my life is in the toilet!

Rude!

Duck!

Olap, do astronomy w Planet Nine: Is the search for this elusive world nearly over?

Surely the absence of nine indicates our model of gravity is off. Combined with lack of Dark Matter, is Einstein wrong?

What are the chances of that?

huskypenguin,

It happens every spring, so chances are high.

Not a million to one then?

If it’s a million to one, it’s bound to happen. That’s just common sense

Hobbes_Dent,

Duh. It wouldn’t be such a common saying if it wasn’t how to make it work.

Did I miss something? I couldn’t see where they said “will soon” and what that means.

Muscar,

“In early March, NASA announced that construction and testing of the three CADRE rovers was complete and the trio was ready for integration with Intuitive Machines’ Nova-C lander, which will deliver the mini explorers to the lunar surface later this year or early next year as part of the company’s third lunar lander mission, IM-3.”

At the end of the article. And here’s the website for the project with more info: www.jpl.nasa.gov/missions/cadre

Water scouring the surface? Or was it thousands years of wind-blown sand / dust? Dunes have ripples.

There is no water on Mars (not to be confused with liquid CO2) until somebody goes there and drinks some. Anything else is hoping for water to justify the $100billion price tag.

Read the article. This is from water that no longer exists on Mars.

TauZero, do astronomy w City-size comet racing toward Earth regrows 'horns' after massive volcanic eruption

What a disgusting clickbait title 🤮. The comet is not “racing towards Earth” any more than say Mars is (and Mars comes closer to Earth than this comet will). Maybe some day we’ll live in a world where journalists do not sensationalize headlines with a mix of Deep Impact and The Ninth Gate, but today is not that day.

outstanding_bond,

On Mander, fighting the clickbait pop science menace is every citizen’s duty. Are you doing your part?

blackbrook,

I think they are. I checked the comments before clicking on the article and that comment prevented me from rewarding that clickbaiter.

TauZero,

The poster is just submitting the article as titled, and the scientists are just making cool observations not bothering anyone. The fault for clickbait lies solely with the journalists/editors. I wish instead of continuing the practice from that other site of “submission title must match article title”, we normalize the culture of writing our own plain language de-clickbait-ified titles, the way HackerNews does it.
