The Cosmic Companion VIP Newsletter May 25, 2020
An interview with Dr. Alejandro Soto of SWRI, mud volcanoes on Mars, cosmic rays may have altered the nature of life on Earth, colliding galaxies, black holes, and more!
Hello everyone:
In this week's episode of Astronomy News with The Cosmic Companion, we look at volcanoes of mud on Mars. We also see how life on Earth may have been shaped, at the genetic level, by cosmic rays from space. We explore collisions between black holes and ultra-dense neutron stars, and we take a look at the Wolfe Disc, an ancient galaxy that grew much faster than expected. Finally, we look at a pair of findings about galaxies, each from the same network of radio telescopes.
Plus, in a fun, informative interview, we talk to Dr. Alejandro Soto of the Southwest Research Institute, who recently released a study showing how microscopic lifeforms may be affected by salty deposits of water on Mars.
