In Africa: Astronomers Have Discovered Another 'Planet Killer' Asteroid
Luckily for us 2022 AP7 "has no danger to hit the Earth currently", in keeping with Scott Sheppard at the Carnegie Institution for Science. He and his global crew of colleagues observed 2022 AP7 in a trio of "alternatively big" asteroids obscured via the Sun's glare (the opposite two don't pose a threat).

Human Population and Conservation
If one thinks about what broad themes unite conservationists of all stripes a few main ideas emerge. Preserve biodiversity, maintain and expand wild habitat, decrease pollution and waste. Ultimately most of these boil down to a fairly simple formula. The more we can reduce man’s footprint on the planet the better it will be for every other living thing. The easiest and most straightforward method to achieve this end would be to significantly reduce the human population of the planet. I think most people understand this at some base level and I believe it explains a lot of the negative attitudes many people instinctually express when asked their feelings on the matter. Essentially the conservationist is asking us to admit that we are the problem, we are a net negative for the health of the planet, all living things would be better off if we ceased to exist. I know that few environmentalist/conservationists would put it exactly this way though many probably believe it. In point of fact until very recently I did too.

Dragon Child Distress Chronicles
There was no moon tonight. All eight of them seemed to be hiding behind the Jander World for some reason. Maybe they were hiding because they sensed some impending chaos or doom and did not want to be party to it. A kind of disclaimer, so to speak. It didn't matter. they would have to answer for it anyway. Zearbar would see to it. Then punish them accordingly. As I peered toward Jandar World I could see flickers and light pulses coming from behind it and this concludes that I am right about my assumption. They were hiding. I then softly whispered to Jealith, the largest moon. "Whatever the event will be, we need a witness. Take your place and give coverage." Slowly, Jealith crept out from behind the large planet and took up a place in the dark sky. I then looked back at Jandar World to see the other moons peeking.

Power From The Sun
Solar Energy Basics Solar energy is one of the most popular forms of renewable energy. Solar energy is generated through the use of solar panels that convert sunlight into electricity. Solar energy can be used to power homes, businesses, and even vehicles.

What would happen if the moon exploded?
Consider what it might appear like if the moon were to explode. The moon would shatter into several parts during an explosion. These components would be divided into large and tiny ones. Those lunar debris fragments would all go in various ways. Some would gravitate toward the Earth, while others would drift away from it. The amount of the explosion determines what happens to the remaining debris.

A Story of Earth
Long before the creation of time there was a small flower floating through the darkness. This flower was alone in the world and knew not where to go. One day this flower decided to spread out its spores into the darkness. So, as the spores flew out into the blackness of the void they nested into place and so created the suns of the universe and by extension the first remnants of time.

Why haven't humans gone to Mars yet?
NASA's Trail rover successfully landed in Jezero crater on the surface of Mars at 4:55 a.m. BST on Feb. 19, 2021. The Trail rover has been in space for more than six months since liftoff on July 30, 2020, and although it was launched slightly later than our SkyQuest 1 rover by a few days, it was the first to complete its mission to land on Mars, the most complex Mars rover to date and the fifth Mars rover sent to Mars by NASA.
