I said this story popped up weeks ago, but it was just days. Last week only seemed like a month passed. LOL
The larger cosmology is interesting too. If I'm understanding correctly, a new idea about the expansion of the universe is that space expands unevenly, expanding faster in areas that are less dense. Apparently, this discrepancy can eliminate the need for "dark matter" to explain currently observed universe expansion. I have no idea how that proposition affects the idea of "flat" or even "saddleback" space curvature, if it's instead all bubbly and uneven.
Very interesting, yes, but it's just not what grabs my attention. I want to peek in infrared at everything nearby, both within our solar system's sphere (not just within the flat ecliptic plane) and within 100 light years, just to catalog when something shows up. I want to know more about the waterworld discovered a few years ago, just 48 light years away.
Instead, I'm "working for a living" and (apparently) driving up my blood pressure. Ugh. UBI can't arrive soon enough.
