Why the Universe Looks Too Smooth to Be Born by Chance
When we imagine the birth of the Universe, we often picture something violent and chaotic: a sudden explosion of energy, matter flying in all directions, randomness ruling everything. Intuitively, such a beginning should leave behind a messy, uneven cosmos. Yet when astronomers observe the Universe on the largest possible scales, they see something very different. The Universe looks remarkably smooth, balanced, and orderly — almost too orderly for a purely random origin.

What Do We Really Know About the Boundaries of the Solar System?
When most people picture the Solar System, they imagine a neat diagram: the Sun at the center, planets orbiting in tidy circles, Pluto somewhere at the edge, and then—nothing. Empty space. The truth, however, is far more complex, fascinating, and mysterious. The Solar System does not end at a clear line, nor does it have a physical “wall.” Instead, it fades gradually into interstellar space through a series of overlapping and poorly understood regions. Even today, scientists cannot agree on a single answer to a deceptively simple question: where does the Solar System actually end?

Why Scientists Are Rethinking What Makes a Planet “Habitable”
For much of modern scientific history, the idea of a “habitable planet” seemed relatively straightforward. If astronomers wanted to find life beyond Earth, they needed to look for worlds that closely resembled our own: rocky planets, orbiting at just the right distance from their stars, with mild temperatures and liquid water on the surface. This concept shaped decades of research, telescope design, and space missions.

Venus Returns: Why the “Hell Planet” Is Back in the Spotlight of Science
For much of the space age, Venus was treated as a cautionary tale rather than a destination of hope. Nearly identical to Earth in size and composition, it once seemed like our planet’s twin. Instead, it turned out to be one of the most hostile worlds in the Solar System. Surface temperatures hot enough to melt lead, crushing atmospheric pressure, clouds of sulfuric acid, and a landscape shaped by catastrophic forces earned Venus its grim nickname: the hell planet.

Children in Space: Science Fiction or an Inevitable Reality?
For decades, the idea of children being born in space belonged firmly to the realm of science fiction. From futuristic novels to blockbuster movies, space-born humans were portrayed as exotic symbols of humanity’s cosmic future. Yet today, this question is slowly moving from imagination into serious scientific and ethical discussion. As plans for long-term missions to the Moon, Mars, and even permanent space settlements gain momentum, one unavoidable issue emerges: if humans are going to live in space for years or generations, what happens to reproduction and childhood beyond Earth?

New Missions to Pluto: What Awaits Future Explorers
For decades, Pluto was a distant point of light at the edge of the Solar System—mysterious, poorly understood, and largely ignored. Even after its reclassification as a dwarf planet in 2006, Pluto never truly lost its scientific importance. On the contrary, the historic flyby of NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft in 2015 transformed Pluto from an abstract concept into a complex, dynamic world. Mountains of water ice, vast nitrogen glaciers, layered hazes, and signs of ongoing geological activity stunned scientists and raised a crucial question: was that brief encounter enough?

Discovering Subsurface Oceans on Jupiter’s Moons: A New Frontier in the Search for Life
For much of modern astronomy, the search for life beyond Earth focused on planets orbiting within the so-called “habitable zone” of their stars — regions where liquid water could exist on the surface. However, discoveries made over the past few decades have dramatically expanded this view. One of the most profound revelations in planetary science is the discovery of vast subsurface oceans hidden beneath the icy shells of Jupiter’s moons. These concealed oceans have transformed frozen, distant worlds into some of the most promising environments for extraterrestrial life in our Solar System.

How Portland Engineers Reduce Mobile App ANRs and Crashes?
Alex Morgan didn’t need another crash report to know something was wrong. Crash-free session rates still looked acceptable on paper. Automated tests were green. QA sign-off came without resistance. Yet real users were telling a different story—one that didn’t fit neatly into dashboards.

Private Orbital Cities in the 2030s: How Humanity May Begin Living Above Earth
By the 2030s, the concept of private orbital cities is expected to move decisively from visionary speculation to practical implementation. What once belonged exclusively to the domain of science fiction and government-funded space programs is now being actively explored by private aerospace companies, investors, and architects. These orbital settlements will not merely host astronauts on short missions; they are designed to support long-term human presence, economic activity, and even emerging space-based communities.

The Infrastructure of the Interplanetary Internet: Building a Network Beyond Earth
For most people, the internet is an invisible and instant utility. We send messages, stream videos, and store data in the cloud without thinking about the immense infrastructure that makes it possible. But what happens when humanity moves beyond Earth? As space exploration accelerates and missions to the Moon and Mars become increasingly ambitious, scientists and engineers face a fundamental challenge: how do we build an internet that works across planets?
