Long-awaited for 50 years! Japanese Female Astronaut Aims to Set Foot on the Lunar Surface
The U.S.-led Artemis lunar exploration program will send astronauts to the moon in 2025. It is now known that at least two Japanese astronauts will be part of the program, and once a decision is made to allow Japanese astronauts to go to the Moon, it will be the first time that Japanese astronauts will go to the surface of the Moon, and Japan will be the second country to go to the Moon.

Webb Telescope Unveils New Evidence of the Universe's Accelerating Expansion
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has recently brought groundbreaking progress to cosmological research. The latest observations reveal that the expansion of the universe is accelerating, potentially driven by the effects of dark energy. This discovery could redefine our understanding of cosmic evolution.
Researchers conducted large-scale analyses using the Webb Telescope, precisely measuring light variations from supernova explosions. These findings further validated previous measurements made by the Hubble Space Telescope. However, the expansion rate observed by the Webb Telescope is slightly higher than prior data, suggesting that the pattern of cosmic expansion might be more complex than expected. Scientists believe this indicates that our understanding of dark energy remains incomplete.
The research also included analyses of ancient galaxies, uncovering insights into the formation and evolution of early cosmic structures. The team discovered that some ancient galaxies possess higher-than-expected masses, challenging current cosmological models and prompting a reevaluation of the physical laws governing the early universe.
Astronomers assert that the precise data provided by the Webb Telescope not only enhances our understanding of the dynamics of universal expansion but could also offer crucial clues about the ultimate fate of the universe. Future data may further clarify the role dark energy plays in cosmic evolution, potentially answering whether the universe will continue expanding indefinitely or reverse its course toward collapse.
This groundbreaking achievement, published in the latest issue of Nature Astronomy, has garnered significant attention from the global astronomical community. Scientists eagerly anticipate more critical evidence from the Webb Telescope to unveil the mysteries hidden deep within the universe.
