"Revisiting Extraterrestrial Claims: New Findings on Interstellar Signals and Alien Debris"

A recent study suggesting the discovery of interstellar material on the ocean seabed has been challenged by a new study, which found that the iron isotopes of the spherules in question indicate a local origin, likely from the Australasian tektite strewn field caused by a large impact 790,000 years ago. While these particular spherules have a local origin, the search for interstellar objects on Earth continues.

"Stunning ESO Image Unveils Spectacular Remnants of Stellar Explosion"

The European Southern Observatory (ESO) has captured a stunning image of the Vela supernova remnant, showcasing the aftermath of a massive stellar explosion that occurred around 11,000 years ago. The image reveals beautifully illuminated clouds of interstellar dust and gas, along with twinkling stars. Supernovas are so powerful that they can briefly outshine an entire galaxy, and the light from this explosion has only recently reached Earth. Taken using the ESO's Very Large Telescope, the image showcases the intricate details of the remnant in vibrant colors.
