Scientists from the University of Edinburgh in Scotland are arguing that the massive and mysterious tubelike fossils known as "prototaxites" deserve their own life form classification because, basically, they're too weird to belong to any other. @Futurism has more, including why prototaxites have long been a head-scratcher and a point of contention for scientists who to this day cannot figure out their nature:

A Partial Solar Eclipse over Iceland

Explanation:
What if the Sun and Moon rose together? That happened yesterday over some northern parts of planet Earth as a partial solar eclipse occurred shortly after sunrise. Regions that experienced the Moon blocking part of the Sun included northeastern parts of North America and northwestern parts of Europe, Asia, and Africa. The featured image was captured yesterday over the Grábrók volcanic crater in Iceland where much of the Sun became momentarily hidden behind the Moon. The image was taken through a cloudy sky but so well planned that the photographer's friend appeared to be pulling the Sun out from behind the Moon. No part of the Earth experienced a total solar eclipse this time. In the distant past, some of humanity was so surprised when an eclipse occurred that ongoing battles suddenly stopped. Today, eclipses are not a surprise and are predicted with an accuracy of seconds.

2025 March 30 A a cloudy sky appears with an overall pink - red hue. The Sun appears partially eclipsed over a slanting hill. A person on the hill has their arms raised and appears to be holding up the partially eclipsed Sun. Please see the explanation for more detailed information.

NASA is keeping an eye on a strange anomaly in Earth's magnetic field: “a giant region of lower magnetic intensity in the skies above the planet, stretching out between South America and southwest Africa,” writes Peter Dockrill. While it doesn’t have much impact to life on this planet, NASA likens it to a kind of “pothole in space” that can create a headache for orbital spacecraft like the International Space Station.

There's a partial solar #eclipse tomorrow! The #Moon will slip between #Earth and the #Sun, casting its shadow over us 🌞🌕🌍

To get in the spirit, let’s take a (very) close peek at our cosmic neighbour, with its crater-covered surface. And, sadly, no cheese in sight 🧀 👀

This image was captured in early January through the Nasmyth A focus of the UT1 telescope at our Very Large Telescope (VLT) in #Chile

A closeup image of a circular patch of the Moon's surface, bright and gray, sprinkled with mountains and circular craters of different sizes. This image is surrounded by a circular shadow and a cross-shaped shadow of the structure that supports one of the telescope's mirrors.
