Scientists have discovered an anomalous blob of heat on the far side of the moon.
This mysterious hotspot has a strange origin: It’s likely caused by the natural radiation emanating from a huge buried mass of granite, which is rarely found in large quantities outside of Earth, according to new research. On the moon, a dead volcano that hasn’t erupted for 3.5 billion years is likely the source of this unusual hunk of granite.
This is interesting. Sounds like it makes finding other intelligent beings much less likely, which is a bit sad I guess.

We are also in a particularly unique location for our universe in terms of being able to view the wider universe. Were we any further center or any further out, we would have much less of an observable universe. Stars would not have shown up in the night sky until the 1970’s due to the distance.
Space is dark. We are in a very well lit part of it :)
