Astronomers have discovered an Earth-size exoplanet, or world beyond our solar system, that may be carpeted with volcanoes.

Evidence left in rocks is leading scientists to rethink what watery environments looked like on ancient Mars.

Three glowing disks of dusty debris encircling a young star are reminiscent of our solar system’s asteroid belt.

The work is based on new modeling and explores how oceans could exist in unlikely places in our solar system.

What phenomenon is behind a mysterious line of stars? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Chuck Nice explore the possibility of a triple galaxy collision and a runaway black hole with theoretical astrophysicist Saavik Ford. A Quick Note from The StarTalk Producers: We delight in the mysteries of the universe as they continue to unfold through the work of scientists and the scientific method. For the following explainer, we note that the Black Hole described has yet to be confirmed, and in the days that followed publication of the original research paper, alternative explanations have been put forth, leaving this a hotly contested subject — for now. Such is the frontier of research.

When will we create a livable habitat in space? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Matt Kirshen explore the possibilities of tessellated space structures, artificial gravity, and other challenges of space living with Founder of MIT Space Exploration Initiative and Aurelia Institute CEO, Ariel Ekblaw. We discuss Gerard O’Neill’s visions of space and the L5 Society. Learn about the Aurelia Institute’s work in creating modular smart space structures and the challenges of creating a space habitat. How do we make sure that space travelers aren’t microwaved like a hot pocket? Have there been any advancements in artificial gravity? Will it be possible for someone who’s 33 years old today to visit space in their lifetime? What’s the most important breakthrough we need to bring down the cost of space travel? How are we going to stop people from getting sick on the way to space? Discover how the human body changes in space and what “space face” is. We also explore an approach to artificial gravity seen in Andy Weir’s Project Hail Mary. How would you create food in a space colony? How would you safeguard a habitat from space debris? What's the role of AI in space travel? Finally, once we get there, what jobs would people have in space? Thanks to our Patrons Rafael Pérez Pastor, Jay Patel, Justin Sharkey, Nick Wood, Debbie Karimullah, and Patrick for supporting us this week.

This animation depicts the collision between our Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy. Hubble Space Telescope observations indicate that the two galaxies, pulled together by their mutual gravity, will crash together about 4 billion years from now. Around 6 billion years from now, the two galaxies will merge to form a single galaxy. The video also shows the Triangulum galaxy, which will join in the collision and perhaps later merge with the Andromeda/Milky Way pair. Visualization Credit: NASA, ESA, and F.

SpaceX and NASA are targeting no earlier than Thursday, March 2 for Falcon 9’s launch of Dragon’s sixth operational human spaceflight mission (Crew-6) to the International Space Station from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The instantaneous launch window is at 12:34 a.m. ET (5:34 UTC), with a backup opportunity available on Friday, March 3 at 12:11 a.m. ET (5:11 UTC). The Dragon spacecraft supporting this mission previously flew Demo-2, Crew-2, and Axiom Space’s Ax-1 to and from the space station. Following stage separation, Falcon 9’s first stage will land on the Just Read the Instructions droneship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean. During their time on the orbiting laboratory, the crew will conduct over 200 science experiments and technology demonstrations in areas such as life and physical sciences to advanced materials, technology development, in-space production applications, and even student-led research. The SpaceX webcast for the Crew-6 mission will go live about one hour before liftoff.

SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft.
