"For the first time in the documented history of modern science, humanity has deliberately and with full premeditation permanently modified the natural movement of celestial bodies relative to the central star of our entire system. "

"And now the team has discovered that free gravitational propulsion is more common when choosing this hidden route, and the newly reported route uses 58.8 m/s less delta V than the previous cheapest known route. And with such, so to speak, uh, delta V, you can do quite interesting things. In fact, you can change the direction of such an orbit around the Moon multiple times, if it's something that is later supposed to fly around the Moon, it's a probe, right? We can reduce the mass of such an instrument, uh, such a probe or such, I don't know, a lander, and simply push in more, uh, kilograms, because we can easily convert that to kilograms, uh, of some scientific equipment, let's say, or supplies. "

"The Moon is moving away from Earth. It used to be much closer. In the past, almost every transit of the Moon across the solar disk was a total eclipse. Today we have annular eclipses because the Moon has moved away from Earth. It moves away from our planet by an average of 3 cm each year, so total eclipses will eventually disappear. There will be no total eclipses at all. "

"Psyche mission. Upon arrival in August 2029, it will enter orbit around the asteroid Psyche, which is likely a partial core of a planetesimal, a building block of an early planet, through a series of circular orbits that will gradually lower and rise around Psyche. In essence, it means it will go once higher, once lower, and will gradually descend. The asteroid, which is about 280 km wide at its widest point, will be mapped and scientific data collected. "

"This view of Mars' crescent was captured on May 15, 2026, around 5:03 PDT by the Psyche probe while approaching the planet for a gravity assist. "

"Astronomer Bill Grey, creator of the Project Pluto software, which is used to track near-Earth objects, conducted extremely precise simulations. Based on over 1000 observations, he calculated that the Falcon 9 second stage will hit the Moon's surface at a speed of 2.43 km/s, which is over 8700 km/h. "

"Mark One will carry two NASA science and technology payloads this year as part of the CLPS, or Commercial Lunar Payload Services, initiative. [...] it will be sent to the Moon's south pole region. Stereoscopic cameras for lunar surface studies, a series of high-resolution cameras that will record interactions between the lander engine plume, the lunar surface during descent and landing, and a laser retroreflector array that helps orbiting spacecraft determine location more precisely using reflected laser light. "

"What was observed in Brookhaven is a process in which a virtual quark-antiquark pair hidden inside a string transforms into a real quark-antiquark pair under the influence of injected energy. "

"This correlation is the ultimate proof that virtual particles were actually there, existed in that energetic string, and then, under the influence of the collision, one could say they advanced to the level of real particles that we can register in detectors. "

"We have strong evidence that virtual particles are not just a mathematical abstraction, but something real, foundations of reality, which we can even force to reveal themselves in our laboratories. "

"Even before the collision, it was conservatively assumed that shortening Dimorphos's orbital period by just 73 seconds would be considered a spectacular technological triumph. Meanwhile, the latest meticulous and repeatedly verified, which is important, telescopic measurements showed something amazing. The precise impact of the artificial probe on the asteroid's surface reduced the orbit of this small moon not by a second, but by over 30 minutes. "

"In the case of Didymos and Dimorphos analyzed by us, the micro-nudge by a small probe consequently led to a noticeable shortening of their more than two-year orbital period around the solar disk by 15 seconds, and the trajectory itself gravitationally reduced its radius by nearly 360 m. "

"The physical radius of this closed orbit noticeably decreased by tens of meters. And this directly means that as humanity, we deliberately and effectively pushed Dimorphos onto a much tighter, shorter, and faster path orbiting Didymos. "

"Humanity has for the first time in its history permanently changed the orbit of a celestial body orbiting the sun. We are not talking about a minor correction of an artificial satellite's flight, but about knocking a cosmic mountain off course. And so powerfully that it modified its trajectory relative to our parent star. "

"The impact, which in perfect combination with a massive jet ejection of rocky debris, not only reshuffled the internal dynamics in this binary system but literally slowed down the movement of this entire system. We are talking about a research-proven slowdown of merely less than 12 micrometers per second of flight, which translates to a deviation of less than 5 cm per hour of flight through the abyss of space. "

"However, even as the comet moves away from Earth at a speed of approximately 209,000 km/h, astronomers are still gaining new information from which Atlas in a recently published NASA research note describes a recent surprising turn of events from the comet's surface. A huge increase in brightness was recorded there. The observation took place approximately two months after the comet reached its closest distance to the sun. And this allowed scientists to better catalog various organic molecules of the comet, including cyanide, methane, and methanol. "

"However, the amount detected in 3I Atlas seems unusually high compared to rates observed in solar system comets. And again, this fingerprint, discovered for the third time in July '25 by the Last Alert System, is only the third known object whose presence in space has been confirmed in the solar system. The first was Oumuamua in 2017. Then in 2019 Borisov, which had a more traditional comet-like appearance. "

"According to the new plan, the Artemis III mission (launch scheduled for mid-2027, but with a high probability of being postponed) will be transformed into a complex test of orbital maneuvers in low Earth orbit (LEO). Instead of landing near the Moon's south pole, the Orion spacecraft crew will focus on rendezvous and docking operations with landers provided by SpaceX and Blue Origin. "

"Artemis 2 still hasn't launched, and now most likely due to helium leak problems in the rocket's second stage, this launch will be delayed until April. Let's hope it happens then. But the Moon landing itself will also be delayed until 2028. And now I'm saying here that perhaps even later. It won't be good if it happens this decade. "

"General relativity imposes a speed limit on objects moving through spacetime. Nothing with mass can reach the speed of light. This is an absolute, uncancelable prohibition. The energy required to accelerate a massive object to the speed of light is infinite. Period. "

"In 2003, nature gave us an even better natural observational instrument, namely not just one pulsar orbiting a center of mass with a neutron star, which is something invisible, but it gave us something immeasurably more accurate, which is two clocks orbiting, that is, a double pulsar this time J0737-3039. "

"Based on this, very, very precise studies of the periods of over 60 millisecond pulsars have been conducted for many years. And this network is called PTA. It's PTA not like Polish Astronomical Society, but like Pulsar Timing Array is a network. And what is very important, recently the first works appeared showing that this network, this network provided evidence for the existence of such a gravitational background, that there are such waves that spread everywhere, very long waves, which cause the frequencies of impulses from pulsars reaching us to be minimally distorted and they are directionally correlated, right? "

"We see stars orbiting invisible points at immense speeds, such as the S-stars in the center of our galaxy. We see accretion disks, gas heated to millions of degrees, falling onto something that does not reflect light. We detect gravitational waves that perfectly match models of colliding black holes predicted by Einstein. "

"Meanwhile, on the surface in Jezero Crater, the Perseverance rover was waiting. And Perseverance pointed its cameras at the sky and took a long exposure. And in the photos, Atlas looks like a faint smudge drifting among the stars. It may not be the most beautiful photo in the history of astronomy, let's not kid ourselves, but its scientific and historical significance is gigantic here. This is the first portrait of a visitor from outside the solar system, taken by a robot standing on another globe. "

"On 24 September 2023, at 4:42 a.m. MDT, at a distance of 63,000 miles (101,000 kilometers) from Earth, it ejected the sample return capsule, which re-entered the atmosphere at 27,650 miles per hour (44,500 km/h). "

"Apophis is that famous asteroid that will fly extremely close to Earth in 2029, closer than geostationary satellites. A probe will study how Earth's gravity will affect this asteroid during such a close flyby. "

"The Chinese have successfully completed a full energy cycle, from thorium, through the breeding process, to obtaining energy from generated uranium 233. "

"Chinese scientists announced a success we've been waiting for since the 1960s. In a reactor in the Gobi Desert, they not only managed to start a chain reaction but did so in a system using molten salts and thorium. "
