Quick Glance: The future total solar eclipses

The next total solar eclipse in North America will occur on March 30, 2033, not in twenty years.

The 2033 eclipse will offer a unique spectacle in Alaska after sunrise, coinciding with the aurora borealis season. Additionally, the path of totality extends to Siberia.

The eclipse on August 23, 2044, will be visible in Montana and North Dakota, with Greenland and parts of Canada along the path.

An equally remarkable eclipse to the 2024 event will take place on August 12, 2045, covering Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Oklahoma, and Florida in its path of totality.

Quick Glance: NASA awards contracts for autonomous moon rovers

NASA awarded contracts to three commercial space companies to develop autonomous rovers for moving cargo and people on the moon as it establishes a lasting presence there.

The companies will partner with NASA to pursue commercial opportunities, with contracts totaling up to $4.6 billion over 15 years for lunar terrain vehicles.

These rovers will enable astronauts to explore more of the lunar surface, especially at the South Pole, and conduct autonomous scientific operations.

NASA continues to invest in technologies like moon habitats, energy generation, and mining to enhance lunar exploration and achieve the goal of returning astronauts to a moon base.

Quick Glance: James Webb Telescope live updates: NASA releases photos that reveal cosmic secrets

NASA has released the first photographs from the new James Webb Space Telescope, including some dating back 13 billion years.

The final image, the Carina Nebula's cosmic cliffs, reveals for the first time hundreds of stars that were previously hidden from view.

The Carina Nebula image provides a unique look of stars in their early, fast stages of creation.

The Carina Nebula is a star-forming region within our own Milky Way galaxy that is rather close (in space terms).

Quick Glance: NASA unveils probe for potentially life-sustaining Jupiter moon

US space scientists revealed the interplanetary Clipper spacecraft destined for one of Jupiter's icy moons in search of extraterrestrial life.

The Clipper spacecraft is set to launch in October and conduct a detailed study of Jupiter's moon Europa over five years.

The mission aims to identify conditions that could support life but is not specifically searching for life itself.

The probe is expected to operate until 2034 before crashing into another body in the Jovian system to conclude the mission.

Quick Glance: New York inmates' legal action over solar phenomenon

Prisoners in a New York correctional facility have taken legal action as the state's Department of Corrections announced restrictions that would hinder their observation of the upcoming total solar eclipse next week.

The six individuals incarcerated at Woodbourne Correctional Facility are asserting that preventing them from witnessing this rare astronomical occurrence would infringe upon their religious rights as outlined in the constitution.

The impending solar eclipse is scheduled for Monday afternoon and was last visible in the United States back in 2017. It will not be observable in the country again until 2044.

A representative from the Department of Corrections informed ABC News that they refrain from commenting on ongoing legal matters but emphasized that the lockdown's purpose is to prioritize the "safety" of both the inmates and prison staff.

Quick Glance: Scientists Identify Three New Species of Ancient Kangaroos

Scientists have identified three new species of giant kangaroo that lived from 5 million to 40,000 years ago, one of which was over 6.6 feet tall.

The giant kangaroos from the genus Protemnodon showed more variability in shape, range, and hopping method than previously thought.

The research is based on the discovery of several complete fossil skeletons in South Australia, allowing a team led by Isaac Kerr to answer longstanding questions about Protemnodon.

The different species of Protemnodon are now known to have inhabited a broad range of habitats, surviving in diverse environments before becoming extinct around 40,000 years ago on the Australian mainland.

Quick Glance: Discovery of Potentially Habitable Super-Earth in Nearby Solar System

Researchers have found a new super-Earth just 137 light-years away, located in the star's habitable zone and discovered with NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS).

TOI-715b is the newly confirmed exoplanet, slightly larger than Earth but significantly more massive. Orbiting TOI-715 in 19 days, it shows promise for observational purposes.

The possibility of liquid water and globe-spanning oceans on TOI-715b within the habitable zone is intriguing, requiring further observations to unveil more about this fascinating exoplanet.

Advanced telescopes like the James Webb Space Telescope could help scientists study the atmosphere of TOI-715b. Whether it is an ocean-covered or arid planet could be determined through these observations.
