Effective advocacy needs more than passion. It needs evidence!

Join DarkSky for a deep dive into the 2026 update of the “Artificial Light at Night: State of the Science” report with Dr. John Barentine. Built from hundreds of peer-reviewed studies across seven major impact areas, this report helps advocates, educators, planners, and communities make stronger, science-backed cases for protecting the night.

Learn how the report is developed, what the latest research reveals, and how you can use this data to strengthen your local advocacy efforts.

Protecting the night starts with understanding the science behind it.

The supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy, Sagittarius A*, is blowing a hot cosmic wind — something scientists have been hunting for over 50 years. ⚫More on the discovery at: https://chandra.si.edu/photo/2026/sgrawind/

NEW: Milky Way’s Black Hole Finally Caught “Breathing”

Astronomers using ALMA Observatory have finally found clear evidence that the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, Sagittarius A*, is blowing a hot cosmic wind – something scientists have been hunting for over 50 years.

From ALMA data, astronomers created the most detailed map ever of cold gas around Sgr A*. After carefully removing the black hole’s bright radio glow, they uncovered a giant, cone‑shaped hole in the cold gas, pointing straight at the black hole – the unmistakable imprint of a large, hot, active wind launched from Sgr A*.

For much of the spring at mid-northern latitudes, the Milky Way lies right down out of sight all around the horizon in the evening. But look east now. The rich Cepheus-Cygnus-Aquila stretch of the Milky Way is rising up all across the east late these nights, earlier and higher every week.

Let's take a panoramic tour of NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory's site on Cerro Pachón!

1️⃣ Don’t let the humble utility shed fool you! Shining brightly above are the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, two of the Milky Way’s closest dwarf galaxy neighbors.

2️⃣ The heart of the operation! Beneath the breathtaking arc of the Milky Way, Rubin's summit facility houses an 8.4-meter telescope and 3200-megapixel camera, which will map the entire southern night sky every few nights. To the right, Rubin's weather station stands tall.

3️⃣ Meet the Differential Image Motion Monitor (DIMM) tower! While twinkling stars might look romantic, the shifting air making them twinkle also affects our images. The DIMM tower helps track that atmospheric turbulence (or "seeing") in real time.

4️⃣ Every big telescope needs a trusty sidekick! Rubin's 1.2-meter Auxiliary Telescope acts as its color-corrector, measuring how the atmosphere scatters light across different colors to make Rubin's data as precise as possible.

The Sun emitted a strong solar flare on June 3, peaking at 7:28 a.m. ET. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured an image of the event, which was classified as X1.0. https://go.nasa.gov/3Q2vtEJ

Solar flares are powerful bursts of radiation. Harmful radiation from a flare cannot pass through Earth’s atmosphere to physically affect humans on the ground. However — when intense enough — they can disturb the atmosphere in the layer where GPS & communications signals travel.

To see how such space weather may affect Earth, check out NOAA NWS Space Weather Prediction Center, the U.S. government’s official source for space weather forecasts, watches, warnings, and alerts.

Finally some action from the Sun! Arctic latitudes on the northern hemisphere might be enjoying the midnight sun but lower latitudes and of course our friends down under should be alert of possible geomagnetic storm conditions later today and tomorrow.

NASA's Curious Universe podcast kicks off its new season by catching up on the Perseverance rover’s biggest discoveries. Perseverance has collected dozens of rock samples and discovered tantalizing features that could be signs of past life. Mars continues to intrigue scientists, and NASA plans to send a fleet of next-generation helicopter drones to the Red Planet and—one day—astronauts.

In this episode, hear from Katie Stack Morgan, project scientist for Perseverance, and Håvard Grip, the pilot for the Ingenuity helicopter's first flights. Listen now wherever you get your podcasts, or at https://go.nasa.gov/4x3NAuB
