The United States. Space Force this week installed a new high-tech radar system that the agency says will be able to "search, track, and discriminate multiple small, baseball-sized objects" in space. The agency was the butt of all jokes when it was established in 2019, but its role has only been expanded since then. It is tasked with protecting American interests in space and providing space capabilities to the military to thwart any attack on the U.S. through that route.

While the Space Force is trying to protect the U.S. from potential attacks through space, NASA is working to keep all earthlings safe from possible asteroid impacts on earth. Towards that end, the agency last month launched a spacecraft with a one-way ticket to crash into an asteroid to test if such a collision can alter the latter's trajectory. Called DART, or Double Asteroid Redirect Test, the experiment will offer researchers insight into whether this strategy will help prevent possible asteroid impacts in case of any actual emergency in the future.

The Sun is one of the most familiar sights in space, but this photo from one skilled photographer captures it as you've never seen it before. Compared to the rest of outer space, our Solar System is nothing but an impossibly small speck. Its 287.46 billion kilometer diameter sounds gargantuan on its own, yet it's nothing relative to how astronomers measure the rest of space. For example, the Milky Way galaxy is about 52,850 light-years. On this scale, scientists estimate that the Solar System is anywhere between 0.5 and 1 light-year. The Solar System is even smaller compared to the known universe, which is believed to be roughly 93 billion light-years.

Despite its amazingly small size, the Solar System manages to do something not found anywhere else in space — it's home to the only known planet with life. Thanks to its atmosphere, gravitational power, and close relationship with the Moon, life on Earth exists where it's seemingly impossible anywhere else. A big reason for this is the Sun. Earth is at the perfect distance from the Sun — being far enough away that it's not burning up, yet close enough that our planet isn't cold and desolate like Mars. Without the Sun, life on Earth would cease to exist.

Samsung is offering attractive discounts on the Galaxy Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic. The smartwatches were launched back in August alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 3, Z Fold 3, and the Galaxy Buds 2. They are a massive upgrade over their predecessors, especially on the software side of things. While the Watch 3 shipped with Tizen, the new lineup runs Google's Wear OS with Samsung's proprietary One UI Watch custom interface on top.

While both the Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic are fairly similar in some aspects, there are a few differences between them. The Watch 4 is made out of aluminum and has a minimalist aesthetic, while the Watch 4 Classic is built out of stainless steel. It also has larger side buttons and a physically rotating bezel around the display. Overall, the Watch 4 is slightly smaller and lighter and is available in 40mm and 44mm cases, while the Watch 4 Classic comes in 42mm and 46mm sizes.
