Blue Origins New Shepard flight NS-23 ended up suddenly. It suffered an in-flight abnormality with the booster. Simply around Max Q point, there showed up changes to the exhaust. After that, the escape system on the capsule began and carried it far from the booster. The flight was uncrewed, so nobody was injured. But it is fascinating how the occurrence will affect the area tourist service of Blue Origin.

Betelgeuse Was Yellow, Not Red, Just 2000 Years Ago
If youve invested time checking out a telescope, youre familiar with the Orion Nebula. Itll be among the first astrophotography images you take. This huge star-forming complex is right next door, astronomically speaking, filled with countless recently forming stars. Every space telescope and ground observatory has recorded photons from the Orion Nebula, and now its Webbs turn. Obviously, the magnificent James Webb Space Telescope didnt disappoint with its analysis of the Orion Nebula, revealing formerly hidden stars shrouded in clouds of gas and dust and seeing through thick nebulosity to show its subtle functions.

Blue Origin Had an Anomaly in Flight
Planetary researchers believe the conditions are so severe inside Uranus and Neptune that it rains diamonds. The extreme temperature and pressure glue carbon atoms together into diamonds. These get heavy and fall into the planets interiors, where the increasing temperatures melt them into particles again and rise closer to the surface area. Now scientists have recreated the conditions inside these worlds in the lab, creating diamonds for a split second.

We understand that Betelgeuse is a rather unique star. They found points out of Betelgeuse in historic documents dating back to 2000 years ago. Which gives a strong hint about Betelgeuses age and advancement.
