NASA Should Beware of Viruses From Outer Space - Bloomberg

As Never-A-Straight-Answer gears up for its first sample return mission, Adam Minter has a few cautionary words for the agency about preventing another lockdown and quarantine. From the looks of things, NASA really doesn't have anything official, yet, regarding policy and procedure with alien samples. Rather than an accidental infection, Clifford Lazaras has an idea or two about How Would Our Species Handle An Alien Invasion? Plus there's an interesting parallel drawn between the current coronavirus crisis and a hypothetical first contact scenario. For now humanity should be happy to merely stargaze, like these Scientists Observing Strange Lights In The Heart Of The Milky Way. Japanese scientists have spotted quasi-periodic phenomena from the direction of Sagittarius A,* and Paul Ratner endeavors to make sense of this cosmic conundrum. Lastly from the fringes of our solar system, it looks like Pluto's Strange Atmosphere Just Collapsed faster than a Republican economy. Rather than the cause being well-meaning, yet inept, for Plutonian politicians it comes down to the three most important aspects of real estate--location, location, and location. (CS)
