Russian spacecraft's 'unexpected odor' delays ISS delivery
(NASA)
Astronauts found an "unexpected odor" after trying to open the door to a new cargo spacecraft at the space station, according to NASA. A Russian Progress spacecraft docked at the International Space Station on Saturday (Nov. 23) at the Russian Poisk module after its launch on Nov. 21. But astronauts couldn't keep the spacecraft hatch open for long to retrieve fresh food, supplies and equipment due to a stench coming from the capsule.

A Super-Earth would have made our planet uninhabitable
(NASA)
Planetary scientists recently simulated an alternate version of our solar system: one with a super-Earth causing climate chaos on Earth, Mars and Venus. One of the most common types of planets in our galaxy are worlds larger than Earth, but not quite as massive as Neptune. These super-Earths, as they're called, are nearly everywhere we look in the Milky Way -- except, oddly enough, in our own solar system. However, according to Florida Institute of Technology planetary scientists Emily Simpson and Howard Chen, it's no surprise that we're sitting in a cosmic neighborhood without one of these planets. If our solar system had a super-Earth, it's very possible we wouldn't be here in this article together at all.

A camera set up on a buoy in the Indian Ocean caught the end of SpaceX's latest Starship test flight, and it's quite a sight to behold. That suborbital flight, which launched from SpaceX's Starbase facility in South Texas on Nov. 19, sent the 165-foot-tall (50 meters) upper stage of the Starship megarocket partway around the world, toward a patch of the Indian Ocean off the northwestern coast of Australia.
