What Dundas saw that day, and subsequently found at seven other sites, are steep cliffs, up to 100 meters tall, that expose what appears to be nearly pure ice. The discovery points to large stores of underground ice buried only a meter or two below the surface at surprisingly low martian latitudes. This kind of ice is more widespread than previously thought, says Dundas, who, with his co-authors, describes the cliffs this week in Science. Each cliff seems to be the naked face of a glacier, tantalizing scientists with the promise of a layer-cake record of past martian climates and space enthusiasts with a potential resource for future human bases.

Locate a spot of land laid bare by time, and you have a direct line of sight on Mars' subterranean layersand any ice deposited there. Now, scientists have discovered such a site. In fact, with the help of HiRISE, a powerful camera aboard NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, they've found several. Freebie Link

Heat generated by the gravitational pull of moons formed from massive collisions could extend the lifetimes of liquid water oceans beneath the surface of large icy worlds in our outer solar system, according to new NASA research. This greatly expands the number of locations where extraterrestrial life might be found, since liquid water is necessary to support known forms of life and astronomers estimate there are dozens of these worlds.

The Freebie Link peers into the distant universe to reveal a galaxy cluster called Abell 2537. Galaxy clusters such as this one contain thousands of galaxies of all ages, shapes and sizes, together totaling a mass thousands of times greater than that of the Milky Way. These groupings of galaxies are colossal they are the largest structures in the Universe to be held together by their own gravity.

Jovian clouds in striking shades of blue in this new view taken by NASAs Juno spacecraft. The Juno spacecraft captured this image when the spacecraft was only 11,747 miles (18,906 kilometers) from the tops of Jupiters clouds thats roughly as far as the distance between New York City and Perth, Australia. The color-enhanced image, which captures a cloud system in Jupiters northern hemisphere, was taken on Oct. 24, 2017 at 10:24 a.m. PDT (1:24 p.m. EDT) when Juno was at a latitude of 57.57 degrees (nearly three-fifths of the way from Jupiters equator to its north pole) and performing its ninth close flyby of the gas giant planet.

Astronauts have done over 200 spacewalks outside of the International Space Station, and the latest one offers some pretty stunning views of our planet. NASA astronaut Randy Bresnik posted a video he took with a GoPro camera on his latest spacewalk, which occurred last month. In the video, after latching himself safely to the outside of the space station, he takes a moment to look at the Earth. The round ball is dotted with clouds floating over oceans and land, suspended over pure darkness. Its a mesmerizing view and reminder of the beauty of our planet Earth, as Bresnik says. Freebie Link

An asteroid that visited us from interstellar space is one of the most elongated cosmic objects known to science, a study has shown. Discovered on 19 October, the object's speed and trajectory strongly suggested it originated in a planetary system around another star. Astronomers have been scrambling to observe the unique space rock, known as 'Oumuamua, before it fades from view.... Their results so far suggest it is at least 10 times longer than it is wide.

Thales Alenia Space has signed a contract with the UK Space Agency to work on MicroCarb, a joint UK-French satellite mission which will measure sources and sinks of carbon, the principal greenhouse gas driving global warming. It is the first European mission intended to characterise greenhouse gas fluxes on Earths surface and gauge how much carbon is being absorbed by oceans and forests, the main sinks on the planet. The mission, scheduled to launch in 2020, will also contribute to international efforts to measure how much carbon gas is being emitted by natural processes and human activities. MicroCarb will enable the UK Space Agency and CNES to pave the way for a longer term operational system in response to the Paris COP21 Agreement. Freebie Link

When a massive star, more than eight times the mass of our Sun, runs out of fuel to keep it shining, it ends its life in a dramatic explosion. Known as a supernova, the sequence of a rapid collapse followed by a violent explosion can leave the remnants, either a neutron star or a black hole, shining brightly for up to 100 days. Or so we thought. The longest supernova explosion ever observed has been detailed in a Nature paper published today, with a stellar explosion shining for more than 600 days. The discovery could lead us to completely rewrite our understanding of how stars evolve. Freebie Link

Astronomers have spotted a zombie star that refused to die when massive explosions that are normally considered fatal rocked the heavenly body. The star, which lies half a billion light years away in the constellation of the Great Bear, has exploded multiple times since 1954, but may finally be on its way to the cosmic graveyard. It is the first time astronomers have seen the same star explode over and over. Until now stellar explosions, or supernovae, have been considered singular events, the dazzling death throes of stars that have burned up all their fuel. Freebie Link

Venus, while certainly inhospitable to humans, is almost just as rough for robots. The last time a robot visited the surface of Venus was in the mid-80s, when the Soviet Union sent its Vega lander to capture data about the planets soil. It lasted for less than an hour. Which is why for the last year JPL engineers have been working to build a rover that could last on Venus for days, if not weeks or months. Freebie Link

Researchers have learned that the Arecibo Observatory and its signature radio telescope took significant damage when the hurricane passed over. All staff members are thankfully safe for now, but an atmospheric radar line feed and a 39-foot dish (used for Very Long Baseline Interferometry) were lost in winds that reached up to 155MPH. The gigantic central dish is intact, although the line feed's collapse punctured it in places. Freebie Link

Today, on Friday Sept 15th, the spacecraft will make its final approach to the giant planet Saturn. But this encounter will be like no other. This time, Cassini will dive into the planet's atmosphere, sending science data for as long as its small thrusters can keep the spacecraft's antenna pointed at Earth. Soon after, Cassini will burn up and disintegrate like a meteor. Freebie Link

Nasas Cassini mission to Saturn is entering its final week. On 15 September, it will dive towards the planet and burn up in its atmosphere. Nasa have called it the grand finale. Cassini is one of the most ambitious space missions. It is a collaboration between Nasa, ESA and the Italian space agency, Agenzia Spaziale Italiana. The spacecraft, launched on 15 October 1997, took seven years to travel through the solar system to Saturn, which lies about 10 times further from the Sun than Earth. Freebie Link
