A potential dwarf planet has been discovered in the outer reaches of our solar system, orbiting beyond Neptune. Its presence there challenges the existence of a hypothetical body known as Planet 9 or Planet X.⁠
⁠
Sihao Cheng at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, and his colleagues first detected the object, known as 2017 OF201, as a bright spot in an astronomical image database from the Victor M. Blanco Telescope in Chile.⁠
⁠
2017 OF201 is about 700 kilometres across – big enough to qualify as a dwarf planet like Pluto, which has a diameter about three times as big. The object is currently about 90.5 astronomical units (AU) away from us, or roughly 90 times as far from Earth as the sun is.⁠

In 1965, the US Gemini 4 mission tested the first space ‘jet pack,’ the Hand-Held Maneuvering Unit, allowing astronaut Ed White to perform a 20-minute spacewalk. The device used nitrogen gas thrusters for movement. It paved the way for modern EVA suits.

The ‘Fermi Bubbles,’ discovered in 2010, are two massive gamma-ray structures extending 25,000 light-years above and below the Milky Way’s center. Likely caused by a past eruption of our galaxy’s black hole, they challenge theories about galactic energy bursts.

Jupiter’s moon Europa has a subsurface ocean beneath its icy crust, potentially 100 km deep, discovered via Galileo spacecraft data in 1997. Tidal heating from Jupiter’s gravity keeps it liquid. Some astronomers theorize it could harbor microbial life, making it a prime target for future missions.
