As we peer out into the universe, and our observational capabilities get better and better, ever greater and more unexpected mysteries present themselves to the scientists and astrophysicists that study them.
Why, for example, is the sun's atmosphere so much hotter than its surface? What's causing that big old hole in the deep universe? And what exactly is messing with our space probes when we send them into the solar system?
