More than 5,000 planets have been discovered beyond our solar system, allowing scientists to explore planetary evolution and consider the possibility of extraterrestrial life. Now, a UC Riverside study published in Physical Review D suggests that exoplanets, which are planets orbiting stars outside our solar system, could also serve as tools to investigate dark matter.

The silence of the stars might be hiding more than an absence of life — it might conceal ancient machines, monuments, and traps from civilizations long vanished. Today, we explore these eerie cosmic echoes and the risks of unearthing them.

In the not-too-distant future, the search for signs of life on Mars and the moon could see the next generation of robots exploring a new frontier: subsurface lava tubes. These missions could also help us determine the best locations for establishing human bases.
To see whether this could be feasible, scientists tested three autonomous robots in a lava cave on the Spanish island of Lanzarote.
Lava tubes are deep underground caves formed by volcanic activity and are found in various parts of the world, as well as on Mars and the moon. These cavernous spaces could offer protection from the harsh environment of space, such as extreme temperatures, radiation and bombardment from meteorites. This means they may not only harbor existing life but could also serve as ideal locations for manned lunar and Martian bases.

Is our missing antimatter hiding in a mirror universe? Some scientists think a time-reversed anti-universe exists alongside ours — a place where antimatter rules and their “forward” is our “backwards.” If true, it could solve one of physics’ biggest mysteries.
In this video: the antimatter imbalance, CPT symmetry, and what life in a mirror reality might be like.
Could our missing antimatter be hiding in a parallel, time-reversed universe? Physicists have long puzzled over one of the biggest mysteries in cosmology: why our universe is made almost entirely of matter, when the Big Bang should have created equal amounts of matter and antimatter. Some theories suggest that the answer lies in a mirror universe — a realm where antimatter dominates and time flows in the opposite direction to ours.
Philip Goff joins me to discuss panpsychism, cosmopsychism, and how these theories of consciousness have the potential to explain one of the most striking discoveries of modern science: the fine-tuning of the universe for intelligent life.
