Science Bulletins: Black Holes in a Rare Ring
NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory recently spied a spectacular cosmic sight: a ring of eight black holes. Telescopes that view the Universe in optical, ultraviolet, and infrared light can see the galaxy where the ring resides, but only an X-ray telescope can detect the black holes lurking within. Scientists believe the ring was formed in a galactic collision millions of years ago.
Science Bulletins: Seeking Signs of Another Universe
If other universes exist, how could we notice them? A new study by British and Canadian astrophysicists points to a radiation map of the cosmic microwave background, which was emitted shortly after the Big Bang. Its cryptic temperature fluctuations may show imprints from other universes that collided with our own.

Science Bulletins: Australia's Coral Growth Slows
Corals, like clams, lobster, and sea urchins, are marine calcifiers—they incorporate dissolved minerals from seawater to grow their hard parts. Calcifiers are considered at risk from our increased introduction of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide in the air increases the temperature of the ocean by ramping up the greenhouse effect, and the absorption of carbon dioxide into the ocean changes its chemistry so that minerals are less available for
