“We consider first contact less as an event and more as a long process that has already begun.”

And if humans aren’t careful and prepared as they listen for alien life, we could make the mistakes of colonizers in Earth history.

Members of an #Indigenous studies working group are thinking about how to have a better outcome.

Ever since neutron stars were discovered, researchers have been using their unusual properties to probe our universe. But to accurately interpret some of the neutron stars’ signals, researchers must first understand what goes on inside them.

#OTD: On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong took one small step from his spindly spacecraft onto the surface of the moon half a century ago. Thus began a story that would revise science’s knowledge of our origins.

A lot has changed since Apollo, but our exploration of the moon, and even of the samples collected a half-century ago, continues.

How the moon landings changed our view of the solar system Lunar samples hinted at a barrage of debris pummelling planets billions of years ago. Fifty years after Apollo 11, that story is still unfolding.“The moon is the Rosetta Stone of the solar system,” says Samuel Lawrence,Graphic shows how the moon rocks collected on all Apollo missions have been divvied up. Small percentages have been used up in experiments, are currently being studied in labs worldwide or are on public display around the globe. Some 15 percent of samples have been kept in a pristine state at White Sands National Test Facility in New Mexico. The biggest holder of samples is Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, where some 73 percent of samples ended up. Much of that is still in a pristine condition, awaiting new investigation.

Question for #SpaceMastodon #space ...

My understanding of the 2006 change in the IAU definition of #planet (the one that excluded #Pluto and other dwarf planets) was that it cleared out its orbit. If two planets share the same orbit, are they still planets under this definition, or are they something else?
