The James Webb telescope keeps finding early galaxies that look brighter, bigger and more mature than astronomers expected, forcing researchers to rethink how quickly the first galaxies formed stars and assembled after the Big Bang. - Space Daily
The James Webb Space Telescope has confirmed MoM-z14, the most distant spectroscopically confirmed galaxy yet, whose light left it about 280 million years after the Big Bang. It is one of a growing population of early galaxies that are brighter and more numer…
Earth’s Rotation Is Slowing Faster Than In 3.6 Million Years - Forbes
Earth’s rotation is slowing as melting ice moves across the planet. New research says it’s driven by climate change and is unmatched over the past 3.6 million years.
The largest insects that ever lived were dragonflies with wingspans of more than two feet, grown in an ancient atmosphere so much richer in oxygen that nothing that size could survive in the air we breathe today - Space Daily

In 1959, the Soviet Luna 3 probe swung around the far side of the Moon and took 29 grainy photographs of a hemisphere humans had never seen, then developed the film onboard and scanned the negatives with a flying-spot beam to radio them back across - Space Daily
In October 1959, the Soviet Luna 3 probe took the first photographs of the Moon’s far side, developed the film in a tiny onboard darkroom, and scanned the prints to radio them back to Earth — a chain of engineering improbabilities that redrew the map of the s…
