It appears we may have some new lifeforms on the planet, ones that can take Nitrogen from the air rather than the ground; makes sense considering that 78% of the atmosphere is Nitrogen. Scientists are fascinated, and see this as a big deal, up there with the creation of plants and animals!  Also amazing this week is our exploration of interspecies communications and its intersection with AI.  Yes, contact with critters of all kinds will soon be happening, with AI serving as a kind of Rosetta Stone between us and the myriad of other intelligences that live on this planet.  A fascinating development in trans species communications, with many unexpected twists and turns to come!  Meanwhile, we have successfully used optics for communicating for the first time with a space probe 130 million miles away, and are testing a new kind of space propulsion system that is non-reactive! Just wow!! Enjoy..
