SpaceX launches 60 more Starlink satellites, making 240 launched this month alone

The @ChandraXray Deep Field South is one of the most comprehensive X-ray images ever taken of our vast universe, representing over 7 million seconds of Chandra observing time! What would data from a cosmic scene such as this sound like? 🎧 🔊 Volume up: https://t.co/ufr2pybzuo https://t.co/XIbqBTbrsI

Researchers find the earliest bacteria had the tools to perform a crucial step in photosynthesis, showing the process previously thought to take billions of years to evolve could be as old as life itself, and suggesting other planets may have evolved complex life much earlier than previously thought
