Fossils can appear in the oddest of places. As Earth’s shifting tectonic plates have rearranged continents over time and the planet has by turns cooled and warmed, mountain ranges appeared and glaciers carved paths. Those natural movements, combined with erosion, unearth sedimentary rock that tells stories of a world that existed long before humans. In certain conditions, encased in the stone are well-preserved bones — which sometimes take years to remove before they can be studied.
Energetic outbursts from the young star are blasting away at the planet and causing its hydrogen atmosphere to puff away into space, as depicted in the illustration above. Meanwhile, the Euclid telescope sent to space in July has captured its first, star-filled test images, which tease many wonders to come. And the James Webb Space Telescope spied new details within the colorful, iconic Ring Nebula.
