The Auroral Spatial Structures Probe
In late January 2015, NASA-funded scientists launched a rocket-borne experiment into the northern lights in order to learn more about how they heat the planet’s atmosphere. The Auroral Spatial Structures Probe (ASSP), launched at 5:41 a.m. on January 28 from the Poker Flat Research Range about 50 kilometers (30 miles) north of Fairbanks, Alaska.

During WWII bombing runs, invading pilots used the Cologne Cathedral as a reference point for their aerial attacks. The surrounding neighborhoods were almost completely destroyed in the bombings, but the cathedral stood tall. Most of the pilots and airmen later said that they purposely avoided bombing the cathedral because of its beauty and cultural significant. Although the church took as many as fourteen hits, it remained sturdy. When the war was over, repairs were made to the Cologne Cathedral, which was constructed between 1248 and 1473. The church was as good as new again by 1956.
