Launched from Earth in 2011, the Juno space probe has nearly reached Jupiter. If all goes as hoped, the probe will repeatedly dive between the planet and intense belts of charged particle radiation, in an orbit that will take it from pole to pole.

The NEO is much chunkier than most smartphones these days, with interchangeable back halves. You can choose from various finishes, like wood, suede and even ostrich. The device itself has a five-inch 720p screen, 2GB of RAM and a 1.5GHz octacore Snapdragon 617. Plus, it's capable of running Microsoft's Continuum feature, which turns it into a tiny computer. To get one as a Kickstarter reward, you'll have to pledge at least $270, though that tier is quickly running o..>> view originalAntarctic ozone hole believed to be shrinking
HARI SREENIVASAN, PBS NEWSHOUR WEEKEND ANCHOR: Scientists studying climate change in Antarctica reported this week that the hole in the protected ozone layer of the earth’s atmosphere has shrunk. The discovery of the hole in the mid-1980s led to a worldwide facing out of ozone-depleting chemicals known as chlorofluorocarbons, which had been used in products ranging from hairspray to air conditioners. Joining me now from Denver to discuss how that policy has worked and how the hole is healing..>> view originalSkywatch: Jupiter shines bright before its date with Juno
On this star-spangled holiday weekend, the western sky gives ample proof in the night that the planetary king Jupiter is still there. Just after sundown this evening, find Jupiter high in the west-southwestern heavens. You can easily see it with your naked eye, bright at -1.9 magnitude. Enjoy that view, since the large planet welcomes the NASA spacecraft Juno tomorrow night (July 4) in the midst of fireworks here. Jupiter loiters in the constellation Leo, near the back legs of its lion shape. I..>> view originalAre pea plants better decision makers than humans?
Plants may just be smarter than you think, according to a new study by an international team of researchers, published in Current Biology this week.By studying the decisions plants made when presented in environments with different nutrient levels, plants showed a remarkable ability to take calculated risks in order to secure the maximum amount of nutrients."To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of an adaptive response to risk in an organism without a nervous system," said Oxford Un..>> view originalBig Gap In Media Vs.
