SpaceX’s Starship V3 deploys most advanced Starlink satellites then pulls off best re-entry yet with splashdown so soft it floated in the Indian Ocean
Summary
On its 13th flight, Starship V3 deployed a new batch of advanced Starlink satellites and achieved its best re-entry to date, ending with a soft Indian Ocean splashdown that left the vehicle floating.
Why it matters
Re-entry gains move Starship closer to true rapid reuse, which would change the economics and pace of access to space.
Scientists put the “recycling is a distraction” claim to the test
Summary
A four-year study of nearly 2,800 Australians found that personal climate actions like recycling and greener diets did not reduce later support for major environmental reforms. These habits neither increased nor decreased subsequent political engagement.
Why it matters
It removes a common argument against promoting personal climate actions and supports strategies that pursue both individual behavior change and large-scale reform.
The Universe can outrun light without breaking Einstein’s rules
Summary
Space itself can expand so that very distant galaxies recede from us faster than light, even though the light they emitted long ago can still reach Earth. As expansion accelerates, almost all galaxies beyond the Local Group will eventually slip past our observable horizon and disappear from view.
Why it matters
Cosmic acceleration sets a hard, growing boundary on what evidence about the Universe will remain accessible.
