Space exploration

A study by Russian scientists to examine the effects of space exploration on human sperm production has hit an unforeseen snag – cosmonauts are refusing to collect the necessary material.

Scientists have announced the discovery of two new Earth-like planets within our own galaxy so similar to our own that they’ve already shot up into the top 20 contenders for future human colonization.

In a new twist that will either douse a million conspiracy theories or ignite twice as many new ones, President Donald Trump has said he’s met with officials about UFOs, but also that he doesn’t “particularly” believe in them.

India has announced that it is ready to launch its Chandrayaan 2 spacecraft to the Moon in just one month, and become the fourth nation after the US, USSR, and China to carry out a lunar mission.

A team of scientists believes they have beaten 235-million-to-one odds of finding the lost ‘Snoopy’ spacecraft from the Apollo 10 mission, and have (jokingly) pitched the idea that Elon Musk should ‘bring Snoopy home.’

There’s no career opportunity for Elon Musk with Roscosmos, the Russian space agency, its head Dmitry Rogozin said, adding however, that he would gladly meet the SpaceX boss if he ever comes to visit.
