Astronomers have discovered a multi-planet system nearby
Astronomers at MIT and elsewhere have discovered a new multi-planet system near our own Milky Way galaxy that is just 10 seconds apart from Earth, or about 33 light-years, making it one of the closest known multi-planet systems to our own.

Are there aliens?
After launching the search for extraterrestrial civilizations, the "Chinese eye in the sky" has made important progress. According to Science and Technology Daily microblogging news on June 14, Professor Zhang Tongue, chief scientist of the Chinese extraterrestrial civilization search group in the Department of Astronomy and Extraterrestrial Civilization Research Group at Beijing Normal University, revealed that his team has found several cases of possible technological traces and candidate signals of extraterrestrial civilizations from beyond the Earth using the "China Sky Eye". Zhang Tongue said that several narrow-band electromagnetic signals are different from the previous ones, and the team is currently working on further investigation. "The search road of 'China's eye in the sky is long, and we have been working hard."

Various largest objects in the universe are known
We know that Earth is not the largest planet in the universe and that there are gas giants Jupiter and Saturn closer to us. But the Sun is also not the most massive star in space compared to some stars - it's just a dwarf star. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, isn't that big either. So who is known as a giant in space?

The moon is being exploited by unknown creatures!
From ancient times to the present, people have been curious about space. The ancient people not only left many poems about the moon but also left many legends and myths about the moon. When people did not understand that the moon was a satellite of the earth, China had the beautiful and moving legend of "Change running to the moon", but modern science tells people that the moon is only a dead and desolate world, and it is impossible for life to exist.

Will Jupiter become the "second sun" in the future?
The stars in the universe do not exist alone but have a great attraction to each other, and gradually a solid galaxy will be formed, our solar system is several planets, satellites, and comets together to form a galaxy. With the development of cosmic exploration technology, people have more understanding of the solar system, the craziest planet in the solar system is Jupiter, the relevant signs indicate that if Jupiter continues to develop in this way, it may one day become another sun. Today we will look at why such a prediction was made.

How many super-Earths are there in the Milky Way?
Oct. 3 - There are tens of billions of "super-Earths" in our galaxy alone that are more common and more habitable than the Earth we live on today. Astronomers often discover planets orbiting stars outside our solar system and call them "exoplanets," and in the summer of 2022, a team from NASA's Sunset Exoplanet Survey satellite discovered several particularly interesting exoplanets orbiting in the habitable zones of their parent stars.

In A Stranger Place
It was fun to be around people again, I must admit. It had only been a couple of months, but it had seemed like years. Here we were, the humans who were rounded up and sent to a colony of mostly ALFs (Artificial Life Forms) in order to interact with them to allay their prejudices about the nature of humanity. What they saw in us, apparently, would determine the AI (Artificial Intelligence) human relationship well into the future where Earth was concerned. I guess we were sort of ambassadors, or missionaries for the secular human society. Problem was that we were misfits.
