Space (official)

Meet NASA’s rock detectives. Using tiny samples of lunar rock brought back by Apollo astronauts, these NASA Explorers are looking into the origins of our Moon, our planet, and ourselves. They might be among the first scientists to study samples from the Moon’s South Pole that will be delivered to Earth by Artemis astronauts. In episode 2 of “NASA Explorers: Artemis Generation,” we’re joining scientists like Natalie Curran and Jose Aponte, who are looking at clues buried in Moon rocks.

Out of all the planets in the Universe, Earth is clearly the best for life, right? Wrong. Earth may be great, but scientists have discovered a few worlds that could be even better for life. Behold, KOI 5715.01. Most of the contenders on our superhabitable planet list aren't the ones you could visit anytime soon. The top spot is held by one 3,000 light-years away from our Solar System. It exists in the Goldilocks zone of its star. So conditions wouldn’t be too hot or too cold for a key life-supporting ingredient to exist on its surface. Liquid water.

What If is a mini-documentary web series that takes you on an epic journey through hypothetical worlds and possibilities. Join us on an imaginary adventure through time, space and chance while we (hopefully) boil down complex subjects in a fun and entertaining way.

These planets are beautiful, mind-blowing, perhaps even a bit scary… But most importantly, they are real! These are real places in the universe.
