The Voyager spacecraft explored the ice giants Saturn and Jupiter,discovering the first ever volcanic activity outside of Earth on Jupiter's moon Io.Later,the Galileo spacecraft studied Jupiter's moon Europa,revealing that it's surface is covered by ridges and cracks,the strongest evidence of an ocean beneath its icy crust.The Juno spacecraft,launched in 2011 and arriving at Jupiter in 2016,made recent flybys of Jupiter's moons Ganymede,Europa and Io from 2021 to 2024.Juno's mission has been extended to 2025.Where there are heat and water,there may be extraterrestrial life.

ESA's Euclid celebrates first science with sparkling cosmic views - YouTube - astrophysics

The ESA/NASA Euclid spacecraft promises a wealth of new discoveries because of its unprecedented wide field of view and optical sharpness.It can detect dark matter and dark energy because of these qualities.For example,the large amount of gravitational lensing,a curvature of spacetime,caused by the gravity of massive objects,reveals the substantial presence of dark matter.This was predicted by Einstein's General Theory of Relativity.*Brown dwarf substellar objects,which are failed stars,may account for much of the dark matter in the universe.Brown dwarfs lacked enough mass to initiate thermonuclear fusion.*Even the first five Euclid images have advanced our knowledge of the universe.

Exploring Planet Uranus - YouTube - NASA Goddard - planetary science

The first,and so far only,space probe to visit Uranus was Voyager 2 in 1986.It discovered 10 new moons,a faint ring system and a complex magnetosphere.Further observations were made by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope,which imaged the seasons on Uranus.Further observations will be made by the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope.Ground based observatories have observed massive storms on Uranus,an ice giant planet,that last for months or even years.

Astronauts and Cosmonauts:NASA says the ISS crew is safe and doesn't need to hide in their designated shelters at this time. Satellites:satellites in Low Earth Orbit are slowed down by such events and could experience some problems affecting communications and navigation.

🌎 LIVE Oumuamua Interstellar Object | NASA's Eyes

The first known Interstellar Object,Oumuamua,was discovered on 19 October 2017 by Robert Weryk using the Pan-STARRS 1 telescope at Haleakala Observatory,Hawaai.Reddish in color,it is possibly a hyperbolic asteroid,though others have proposed it is a comet.It's classification is still a mystery.It is headed back out to interstellar space.In 2019,Interstellar Comet Borisov/21 was the second interstellar object discovered.You will note in the animation a track out to 90377 Sedna,a reddish dwarf planet beyond the orbit of Neptune.Spectroscopy has shown its surface to be mostly a mixture of solid ices of water,methane and oxygen,along with widespread deposits of reddish-colored tholins,a chemical make-up similar to other trans-Neptunian objects.Perhaps tholins are also giving Oumuamua its reddish color.
