NASA Launching Music Into Space
On Monday, NASA will broadcast the Beatles song “Across the Universe” across the galaxy to the North Star, Polaris. This would be the first time that a song has ever been beamed by the space agency into deep outer space. It would celebrate the 40th anniversary of the song, the 45th anniversary of NASA’s Deep Space Network, and the 50th anniversary of NASA.
The song would be traveling at the speed of light and would take 431 years to reach Polaris. Polaris is 2.5 quadrillion miles away from Earth. The song would be transmitted digitally at
The original idea came from a man named Martin Lewis, a Los Angeles Beatles historian. He asked for permission from McCartney, Yoko Ono, and two companies that own the rights to the Beatles’ music. The Apple Company was happy to approve the idea.

Astronomers Find Massive Hole in the Universe
It is reported that astronomers have found a massive hole in the universe. This blank area has no stars, no galaxies, and no black holes or dark matter. It expands 1 billion light years across and nothing is in it. It is known that there are areas in the universe that are empty but this spot has a much bigger size than other empty areas. The size is 1,000 times bigger than other empty areas. It is suspected that holes in the universe occur when the gravity from areas with bigger mass pull matter form less dense areas. Astronomers are taking this finding very seriously.
