This lunar rock discovery could also change how scientists think about conditions on early Earth. Wandering black hole caught feeding - Astronomers identified a wandering supermassive black hole after it tore apart a star in a tidal disruption event and briefly outshone its host galaxy. The finding offers a new way to locate displaced black holes and study galaxy mergers. Roman telescope launch moves earlier - NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is now targeting an earlier launch, setting up a major leap in wide-field space astronomy. Roman is expected to survey vast areas of sky and accelerate discoveries in dark energy, exoplanets, and rare cosmic events. ESA expands climate record archives - ESA's Climate Change Initiative released six new or updated satellite climate datasets, extending long-term records used in Earth observation and climate research. These improved space-based records help scientists and policymakers track environmental change with greater confidence. NASA opens simulated Mars recruitment - NASA is seeking applicants for its next simulated Mars mission, a year-long analog stu…
