Sharing you recent space fact
One of the most exciting recent discoveries in space comes from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, which has identified significant features in the atmosphere of exoplanet K2-18 b. This planet, located 120 light-years from Earth in the constellation Leo, has shown evidence of carbon-bearing molecules, including methane and carbon dioxide. These findings suggest the possibility that K2-18 b might be a Hycean world, a type of exoplanet with a hydrogen-rich atmosphere and a water-covered surface Additionally, the Webb Telescope has revealed intriguing details about the most distant galaxy ever observed, GN-z11. This galaxy, existing when the universe was just 430 million years old, hosts a rapidly accreting supermassive black hole, making it the most distant active black hole found to date Another significant achievement by the Webb Telescope is the detection of colors from Earendel, the farthest star ever observed, which shines from within the first billion years after the Big Bang. This discovery provides new insights into the early universe and the formation of the first stars and galaxies

I wonder if Elon Musk will get Starship to Mars one day. I hope so but I'm quite sceptical.
It's a good amd worthwhile goal
