Elon Musk’s Insane Idea to Get 1 Million People on Mars by 2050.

Even more evidence that asteroids brought the ingredients for life to Earth.

The Perseverance rover’s Mars Environmental Dynamics Analyzer (MEDA) is set to collect data on wind with the deployment of a sensor on Mar. 12021 (Sol 10). See imagery of the deployment and hear audio of the Martian wind captured by a microphone on Feb. 20. — NASA’s Perseverance Rover Explained: https://www.space.com/perseverance-mars-2020-rover.html.

A first-ever “space hurricane” was spotted whirling above the Earth, scientists said.

The 600-mile-wide mass of plasma occurred several hundreds of miles above the North Pole, according to a study in the journal Nature Communications.

“Until now, it was uncertain that space plasma hurricanes even existed, so to prove this with such a striking observation is incredible,” said Mike Lockwood, a space scientist at the University of Reading and co-author of the study, in a statement.

A unique training program has teams of astronauts spending time inside caves doing experiments and learning to work together in a challenging environment.

We’re accustomed to astronauts pulling off their missions without a hitch. They head up to the International Space Station for months at a time and do what they do, then come home. But upcoming missions to the surface of the Moon, and maybe Mars, present a whole new set of challenges.

One way astronauts are preparing for those challenges is by exploring the extreme environment inside caves.

The comet was discovered in January and may be bright enough to see without a telescope.

In 2022, our first planetary defense test mission, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART), will attempt to change the motion of a small moonlet, Dimorphos, that poses no threat to Earth. This demonstration, led by the JHU Applied Physics Laboratory (APL), will test a new asteroid deflection technology: www.nasa.gov/dart
