In May , the Sun started spouting off, causing geomagnetic storm watch for the first time since 2005 .

The Curiosity rover captured evidence of auroras on Mars , giving scientists an opportunity to see how such events unfold on other planets.

A tunnel on the Moon could be a boon to future missions to the satellite, where such a structure could protect astronauts from cosmic rays.

The jury’s out on exactly what makes up dark matter, the 27% of stuff in the universe that scientists cannot directly observe but interacts with ordinary matter gravitationally.

Black hole jet research is definitely a space to watch in 2025 , as researchers learn more about the way these structures catalyze changes to their environment.
