... Galaxy Cluster in the Early Universe . ... Explanation: Long before medieval alchemists dreamed of transmuting base metals to gold , stellar furnaces in this massive cluster of galaxies - cataloged as RDCS 1252.9-2927 - had transformed light elements into heavy ones . ... The cluster elemental abundances are consistent with the idea that most heavy elements were synthesized early on by massive stars, but current theories suggest that such a massive cluster should be rare in the early Universe . ...

... One possible application of a solar sail is a spacecraft to warn Earth of approaching interplanetary disturbances and shocks. ... Spacecraft that can provide such a warning are currently stationed at (or near) the Lagrangian L1 point , between the Earth and the Sun--at about 4 times the distance of the moon and 1/100 times that of the Sun. ... Because of the greater distance from Earth, the Earth's pull there is weaker, not enough to make the spacecraft match the Earth's motion around the Sun. ...
