"Astronomer Edward Ashton helped discover that Saturn has a whopping 192 more moons than we thought. He told Scientific American about the way he found all those hidden natural satellites and about the technique known as shifting and stacking that is used to make a quasi-flip-book of images of potential moons. The Story of CO2 Senior desk editor for physical science Lee Billings spoke with science journalist Peter Brannen about"
"his latest book, The Story of CO2 Is the Story of Everything, to discuss how the same chemical compound is both a harmful pollutant and is essentially the key thing that makes Earth a special, habitable place. Life's Journey in Space Author Caleb Scharf discussed what he calls the Dispersal, or the study of how life will have increasingly divergent trajectories as a result of space travel. Scharf told us he is thinking of our unfolding space age as another sort of evolutionary leap."
An astronomical analysis revealed roughly 192 additional moons orbiting Saturn, found by using a shifting-and-stacking technique that creates quasi–flip-book image sequences to detect faint satellites. A climate-focused examination emphasizes that CO2 is simultaneously a harmful pollutant and a fundamental factor enabling Earth's habitability. A space-focused perspective frames life's Dispersal as diverging evolutionary trajectories driven by human space travel and considers the unfolding space age an evolutionary leap. A high-altitude orbital flight produced potentially unprecedented views of Earth’s auroras, intended to improve understanding of polar space-physics phenomena. Other topics examine AI-based therapy and persistent challenges in treating headaches.
