Our Solar System is shaped like a giant shrimp 🦐 (or a croissant 🥐)!
The Sun produces powerful solar winds that wrap around the planets in our Solar System like a giant bubble. This magnetic bubble (called the heliosphere) protects the planets from harmful cosmic radiation emitted by powerful cosmic events like supernovae.
Previously, scientists thought the heliosphere might be shaped like a comet, with a distinct, pointed “nose” and a long, sweeping tail. But, according to research published in Nature Astronomy in 2020, that's not the case. The truth is a bit weirder…
After conducting a series of simulations using data from various NASA missions, a team of astronomers now believes that our Solar System’s heliosphere may be shaped like a giant shrimp 🦐 or a “deflated croissant.” 🥐 Here’s an artist’s visualization that shows its possible shape✨

May is closing with one of the most captivating celestial events visible to the naked eye. On the night of May 30–31, the second full moon of the month will rise, creating what is known as a Blue Moon.
This will be the first Blue Moon since August 2023, with the next not occurring until December 2028. But this year’s event is especially memorable because it coincides with a beautiful alignment of planets.
As the Blue Moon shines, all four of the brightest planets visible from Earth, Venus, Jupiter, Mars, and Saturn, will also be on display. Before sunrise on May 31, Mars and Saturn will glow low in the eastern sky. After sunset, Venus and Jupiter will shine brightly in the western sky, with the full moon dominating the night.
Despite the name, a Blue Moon is not actually blue in color. The term simply describes the second full moon within a single calendar month. Because the lunar cycle is approximately 29.5 days, two full moons rarely fit inside the same month. On average, a Blue Moon occurs only once every 2.5 years.
The planetary “lineup” is an impressive sight created by perspective. While the planets are separated by hundreds of millions of miles in space, from our viewpoint on Earth they appear to line up across the sky alongside the brilliant Blue Moon.
A perfect opportunity to look up this weekend and enjoy one of nature’s rarest sky shows.
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
