Under the heding of a fascinating new discovery – with implications for future observations of the universe and its missing matter, we have a molecular cloud never seen before bv earth bound telescopes, or human eyes. See https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/04/250428222137.htm … a potential star forming molecular cloud is one fo the biggest finds by modern astronomers. We are told it is surprisingly close to our solar system – or should that be, galaxy. It has been given a name – Eos. She was the Gree goddess of the dawn. It is described as a vast ball of mainly hydrgen. It even emits light. Only in the far ultraviolet dimension. It is made up of dust and gases – mostly hydrogen but also carbon monoxied and others. The search will no be on for the glimmer of further moldecular clouds – hiding in plain sight but unseen in earth based telescopes.

This one is one billion years old, it is said. Long long ago. It created the Stoc Fada Mountain rock layer in NW Scotland. It seems the area was dry land even back then as the formation hosts freshwater organisms. When the meteor, or asteroid, struck, the locality had rivers, lakes, and even estuaries. It had also developed a microbial ecosystem, in what looks like a classic lowland situation. The formation is now buried beneath a lot of sediments. These, much later, became the Torridon Mountains.
At https://www.scienceopen.com/collection/9aae92f3-66ba-4b71-a74b-51b9995c56e5 … a new journal, ‘Airbursts and Cratering Impacts’ is a peer reviewed open access journal covering all aspects of airbursts and impacts on Earth by comets and asteroids. Meteors, if you like. The sort of thing mainstream is averse to acknowledging. Essential for catastrophists – young and old.
