WHAT IS PHANTOM ENERGY? • The dark side of the universe could contain a hidden menace that threatens to tear us apart

Phantom energy vs dark energy • Phantom energy is set to take us down a destructive route

The Big Rip: how the universe could end • Phantom energy appears to be pushing the cosmos apart, and the potential result isn't pretty

Missing link: early dark energy

Phantom energy The cyclic universe • How the universe may be dying and springing back to life forever more

ROBOTIC ASTEROID-MINING BEES • TransAstra Corporation’s APIS family of spacecraft could soon be mining asteroids to aid interplanetary travel

KILLER ASTEROIDS FROM THE DEPTHS OF SPACE • Does Jupiter shelter a reservoir of dangerous asteroids that could threaten Earth?

Asteroid hotspots

Inside an asteroid • Take a closer look at Hektor, a Trojan from the ‘Greek camp’

INTERVIEW BIO

Alien caves • We have found evidence of subterranean environments under the surface of a number of Solar System worlds

Case study: how caves formed on Mars • All the evidence suggests Hawaiian-style lava tube networks are common under the Red Planet

What these caves could be used for • There are many reasons to investigate these off-world caves

WHY IS OUR GALAXY BLOWING BUBBLES? • Has our Milky Way been forever spitting out radiation from its centre? We could have finally discovered what's causing it
