The Year 2016 in Space.
10 years ago
General
- So far this year we have discovered 23 new planets to date -- A few of which are, for now, probable candidates for a new home.
- Juno will arrive at Jupiter on Independence Day since its launch in 2007, and we can say hi to it through radios and possibly even messages.
- NASA is funding sending a submarine to Titan, Saturn's glorious satellite.
- We... may not make it to Mars until the 2030s...
- We've discovered gravitational waves from two black holes colliding.
- Ceres has so many new features visible to us now, including an obscure pyramid shape on its surface.
- China has given us true-colour images of the Moon in 4K.
2016 isn't all bad news
