    "Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, working with colleagues at the European Southern
    Observatory (ESO) and the University of Texas at Austin, have established that the extraordinarily bright and
    remarkably similar astronomical "standard candles" known as Type Ia supernovae do not explode in a perfectly
    spherical manner. "

    "Already Mars is blazing big, bright, and fiery yellow-orange in the late- evening sky. You can't miss it. For all of
    August and September, Mars shines many times brighter than the brightest star in the summer sky. Anyone can
    see it, no matter how little you know about the stars or how badly light-polluted your sky may be. "
