An unusual hellscape of a planet found 34 light years from Earth has a deep ocean of molten magma surrounded by noxious, hot, rotten egg-type fumes. It just may be the most uninhabitable alien landscape we've ever come across.
PLUS:
- Neanderthal DNA can help explain how human faces form
- Nearly indestructible teeny tiny tardigrades struggle to survive in Martian dirt
- Tiny tags on monarch butterflies allow scientists to track their exact migration route
- A weird fish has a big hole in its head. Scientists finally have an idea why.
