Bad News Links on Bad News Wednesday:-600 Starbucks are closing. -Stocks are down. -The Solar System has a dent in it? (The music during the wink is taken from dramatic look) (The music during the opening is Man Man.)

The sun will soon set on the Ulysses solar mission, which forever changed the way scientists view the sun and its affect on space.

Animation and mission control video from Mars Phoenix landing day May 25, 2008.

This video includes highlights from the entry, descent and landing phase as Mars Phoenix Lander touched down on the Red Planet on May 25, 2008.

Scientists plan intriguing research, once Phoenix lands safely on Mars.

Cassini completes the final Titan flybys of its original Saturn tour and prepares for a two-year extension.

NASA observatories have discovered a fight brewing in a galaxy far, far away. It seems a black hole is pummeling a small, nearby star cluster with a jet of highly charged radiation. Fortunately it is not directed at the Solar System!

Where's a great place to look for life in our solar system beyond Earth? Jupiter's moon, Europa, with its warm salty ocean, might be a good place to start.

Venus Express is the first mission dedicated to the study of the composition and dynamics of the planet’s atmosphere. The European orbiter has identified broad meteorological regimes, all influenced by the gigantic hurricane-like vortices at the poles. From these double-eyed vortices, swirling in the atmosphere, around the planet in just a couple of days, to smoother streams at mid-latitudes and wave-dominated phenomena at lower latitudes - these regimes are, surprisingly, clearly delineated. The spacecraft’s elongated orbit has allowed its instruments, notably the VMC camera and the VIRTIS imaging spectrometer, to obtain long-shot views of the planet’s weather patterns, mosaics showing different types of cloud formation and wind speeds, varying according to altitude and latitude. Venus Express has obtained much information on the composition and physical processes active in the atmosphere, and has been able to measure the loss of molecules, stripped away by the solar wind. Rates of oxygen depletion are still being calculated but some tentative conclusions are being advanced. Venus Express has also probably brought the final answer to the controversy about the presence of lightening. The venusian picture is still far from complete. The European mission which has now been prolonged to the end of 2008, is pursuing its harvest of data, allowing scientists to better understand the precise reasons why, compared to our planet, Venus has become so inhospitable.ESApod video programme

This month you'll have great views of a red planet and a red star. Plus, find out when the Mars rovers are facing Earth.

Scientists recently watched on the edge of their seats as close-up images from Saturn's odd moon Iapetus beamed back to Earth. Relive the adventure, as they see photos of the odd black-and-white moon, and try to figure out what caused the unusual color patterns.

Pull out your telescope to see Saturn's black-and-white moon Iapetus. And there's something for everyone on Halloween: Jupiter for the early crowd and Mars for the late-night trick or treaters.

The Dawn mission will go to Vesta and Ceres, the two most massive bodies in the asteroid belt. The asteroid belt, a ring of broken-up debris between Mars and Jupiter, is home to some of the last unexplored worlds in the inner solar system.

It's the 30th anniversary of the Voyager mission and you can see all four planets that Voyager studied in the night sky this month.

For 30 years, Voyager has been broadening our view of the solar system and inspiring new generations to explore.

JPL engineers built a futuristic robot that may one day go to the moon.

Philippe Blondel from the University's Centre for Space, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences takes a planetary journey through the solar system and discusses whether the discovery of water means there must be life on other planets.

This week, Drs Chris and Helen find out how your fingers can reveal whether you're mathematically minded, and bridge-building ants that quite literally let themselves be walked over. Also, Astronomer Carolin Crawford takes us on a foray into outer space to discover the shape of the universe, we meet a geyser so tall that it spurts into space, and we Join Maggie Turnbull as she searches for nearby planets that could sustain life. Plus, in Kitchen Science, how to measure the speed of light using a microwave oven!
