Hmm... What have they been looking for since before 1958? Not the Milky Way's central black hole. Another planet that's not a Kuiper Belt object? I don't think they would've said anything about the galaxy if that's what it is...

It just does not compute for me... Another, never before observed spiral arm in the galaxy, hidden behind the dust?

They've found an Earth-like planet.

I’ll tell you what they didn’t find : evidence of interstellar wormhole-traveling space monsters.

News conference due in an hour. A table of uncomfortable scientist looking persons will make their announcement which few will see the importance of once they hear it.

It’d be nice if it was my car keys. I’m getting awfully tired of using a screwdriver and the cops are starting to get suspicious.

NASA “has “carded” a supernova remnant to reveal its underage status” 140 years old. See the photo, she’s a beauty.

Supernovas are stellar explosions:
