The study is thought to be just the tip of the iceberg with millions of these monstrous gravity wells expected to be floating around unseen throughout the galaxy. *Earth’s mantle is far hotter than previously thought A new study claims the Earth’s mantle may be hotter than previously thought. The findings could change the way researchers think about many geological processes within the plant -- including how ocean basins form. *Australian astronomy joins the Very Large Telescope consortium The Australian Federal budget handed down last week in Canberra included some good news for astronomers with the announcement of a new strategic partnership providing access to one of the world’s best astronomical facilities -- the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope – the VLT. The ten year $26.1 million deal provides Australian researchers telescope time on the four 8.2 metre telescopes at the Chilean observatory.
