A. Scientists recently discovered a world some eighty light-years away from Earth. What’s special about this world is it doesn’t have a sun. Astronomers were confused at first, as up until now every planet ever discovered outside our own solar system orbited a star. Thus, they thought that perhaps the object they had discovered was a failed star, or a dead one. But upon further research, they determined that it was in fact a planet.

B. We’ve all heard the saying, ‘Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.’ If that is really true, it might be safe to say that the planets Jupiter and Saturn might be a girl’s two favourite planets. Astronomers have recently determined that huge reserves of diamonds may exist in these planets’ atmospheres. They may be floating around in the skies, or even exist in liquid form deep in the planets’ interiors.

C. Most of us have experienced a solar eclipse, when the moon moves in front of the sun and the sky goes dark at midday. It’s a fascinating experience and a rare treat. Now imagine a solar eclipse with three moons. How would that appear? Scientists have discovered that this will occur on the planet Jupiter and believe it or not, it will be visible from Earth. Of course, you will need a telescope to see it.

D. At the most northern regions of Earth one can see a spectacular display of lights in the night sky. The northern lights, as they’re known, are too far away from most of us to be seen, but thanks to a photographer’s recent efforts, they now appear in a video. Chad Blakley put together a series of images he snapped during a stay in Norway. The images show the lights making bluish green waves that stretch across a starry background.

E. Comets have struck the Earth for millennia; this much scientists already know. Recently, though, they discovered what they believe to be the oldest evidence of a comet striking the Earth’s surface. The comet landed in Egypt, and the impact heated the desert sand to over 2,000 degrees Celsius. This caused the sand to form a type of yellow glass, and pieces of it even found their way into jewellery worn by one of Egypt’s ruling pharaohs.

F. University students in California recently created a rocket engine from a 3-D printer. The engine, which is made of metal and was cut using lasers, was successfully tested. It serves as the foundation for creating rocket engines from 3-D printing which could actually fly into space. The fuel used for the engine’s test run was liquid oxygen and kerosene, and unbelievably, the cost for creating such a device was only 6,800 US dollars.

G. You would imagine that once scientists discover an object in space, they could easily locate it again. Not so with one of the planet Neptune’s moons. The tiny satellite, known as Naiad, was first spotted in 1989 when NASA’s Voyager 2 passed by the planet. That was the first – and last – time it was seen, until now. Scientists rediscovered the moon after closely re-examining some images taken of the planet and its moon and ring system in 2004.
