Outer planets emit more heat than they gain
New York scientist Dr. Robert E. Murphy reports three giant planets Jupiter Saturn and Neptune radiate more internal heat than they receive from the sun while Uranus shows no excess. Evidence suggests Saturn and Neptune have internal heat sources, though Neptune findings remain provisional. The work, discussed at a Maryland meeting sponsored by NASA, compares planetary formation heat sources with Earths radioactive decay.

Calcium loss in astronauts could derail Mars flights
NASA taps University of Washington researchers to track calcium loss in space travelers. Using neutron-based techniques, scientists measure total body calcium to assess bone wasting risks. Early findings show average 18 milligrams daily loss, with potential bone brittleness and kidney stones if unaddressed.
