Astronauts Placed an Extreme Earth Organism in Outer Space. Nine Months Later, it Was Still Alive
When astronauts retrieved Earth moss that had been outside the International Space Station (ISS) for nine months, where it had been exposed to the harsh environment of outer space, they were shocked to find that 80% of its spores were still alive.
Once the spores were returned to Earth, scientists also discovered that most were capable of reproducing.
The Hokkaido University research team behind the unexpected discovery suggests that understanding this extreme Earth organism’s durability could help mission planners evaluate potential Earth-based life forms for adaptation to future human colonies in extraterrestrial environments like the Moon or Mars.

The missile meant to strike fear in Russia’s enemies fails once again
Therefore, it’s no wonder Russian officials like to talk up Sarmat’s capabilities. Russian President Vladimir Putin has called Sarmat a “truly unique weapon” that will “provide food for thought for those who, in the heat of frenzied aggressive rhetoric, try to threaten our country.” Dmitry Rogozin, then the head of Russia’s space agency, called the Sarmat missile a “superweapon” after its first test flight in 2022.
So far, what’s unique about the Sarmat missile is its propensity for failure.
In Myanmar, illicit rare-earth mining is taking a heavy toll
Research conducted by Myanmar Resource Watch, a civil society organization, found that companies mining rare earths in Myanmar rely on a wide range of chemicals classified as hazardous—including sulfuric, nitric, and hydrochloric acids—and that these companies routinely violate regulations on the chemicals’ import, transport, storage, use, and disposal. Not only can hydrochloric acid kill aquatic life, it also dissolves heavy metals, like cadmium, lead, arsenic, and mercury, and radioactive materials, like thorium and uranium, from soil and rocks.

What is AI? (Grades 5-8)
This article is for students grades 5-8.Artificial intelligence, or AI, is a type of technology that helps machines and computers have “thinking” abilities similar to humans. Devices using AI can learn words and concepts, recognize objects, see patterns, or make predictions. They can also be taught how to work autonomously. AI is often used to help people understand and solve problems more quickly than they could on their own.

Sagittarius B2 Molecular Cloud
The Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope captured glowing cosmic dust heated by very young massive stars in unprecedented detail in this image of the Sagittarius B2 (Sgr B2) molecular cloud released on Sept. 24, 2025.
Sgr B2 is the most massive, and active star-forming region in our galaxy, located only a few hundred light years from our central supermassive black hole. While Sgr B2 has only 10% of the galactic center’s gas, it produces 50%
