  Astronomy research and news Items for May 2024   Hi Folks   This month there seems to be a lot of physics and cosmology papers. Make sure to watch the video of a journey into a Black Hole and there is an interesting update on the search for an outer Ice giant too. My own research suggests that atmospheres on Earth sized world’s receiving an Earths like steller flux, where the Red dwarf star is smaller than 25% the mass of the Sun is extremely unlikely. The paper looking at Trappist 1 here seem to confirm that finding too.   I hope everyone managed to see the Auroura the past month too one of the biggest solar storms in some time. I managed to snap a few Smartphone photos but it clouded over here around 7:30pm that evening.   Until next month enjoy the reading.   Multiring basin formation constrains Europa’s ice shell thickness https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adj8455     The evolution of a young ocean within Mimas https://www.sciencedirect.co
