More than two million lakes sit inside a single country, gouged out by Ice Age glaciers that spent tens of thousands of years grinding it into a landscape of water
There is something difficult to grasp about the number of lakes in Canada. A few thousand would already…
Enceladus hides a salty ocean beneath its ice but also blasts that ocean directly into space, which means a spacecraft can test water from a potentially habitable sea simply by flying through the plume — no landing, drilling, or journey through kilometres of frozen crust required.
Most ocean worlds present the same brutal engineering problem. The water may be scientifically irresistible, but it is…

In 2031, a JAXA capsule is due to land in the Australian desert carrying more than ten grams of dust collected from Phobos. Mixed into that dust may be fragments blasted off ancient Mars—material that could preserve organic chemistry, or perhaps even traces of hypothetical Martian life from billions of years ago.
If the schedule holds, a small Japanese capsule will cross the Australian sky in the 2031 fiscal year…
