Q&A: A system approach to preserving planets
Boone’s interest in systems thinking is reflected in his hobby of astrophotography. His photo of the Roset Nebula in the Monoceros constellation – “approximately 5,000 light years, 130 light years in diameter (gigantic)” was taken from his backyard in Arizona, stacking 40 five-minute images to produce this final result.

Reliable science takes time. But the current system rewards speed
Credit: Franz Van Harden of Pexel Recently, there have been many headlines about scientific fraud and withdrawal of magazine articles. If this trend continues, it represents a serious threat to public trust in science. One way to tackle this issue and ensure public trust in science can slow it down. We sometimes refer to this philosophy as “slow science.” Like…

New analysis of asteroid dust reveals evidence of salt water in the early solar system.
In October 2020, a bans -size robot spacecraft temporarily touched the surface of Benne, a 525 -meter planet, 32 million kilometers from the earth. As part of NASA’s OSIRIS-REX mission, spacecraft not only spent two years of imaging as an planet, but also collected valuable samples of dust and small rocks from the poor surface of Bennu. In September 2023,…
