NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope has collected enough light from distant planets—what are called exoplanets—to detect molecules in their atmospheres. Astronomers were not expecting to accomplish such a feat so soon in their search. Consequently, they are ecstatic about the possibility of eventually finding life on exoplanets.

On a cosmological scale, an asteroid called Apophis is small. However, if the 250 meter wide space rock hits Earth in 2036, as scientists say it may, the consequences would be catastrophic. According to the Association of Space Explorers (ASE), a professional association for astronauts and cosmonauts, the world needs to wake up to the danger or suffer a disaster that would dwarf the Indian Ocean Tsunami of 2004.
