There's big news in the world of black holes today as the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has captured stunning new photos of the supermassive black hole that lies at the heart of the galaxy M87, which shows polarity shifts in its magnetic field.
Other headlines for today include interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS types may dominate the Milky Way, a Girl Scout getting rescued from the California wilderness thanks to satellites, Northrop Grumman's cargo spacecraft suffers an issue on its way to the ISS and a new 'Alien' game is being released on Xbox Series X.
We have all that and more for your daily read.
Thanks for exploring with us.
