The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach.

“That they should be the ones to welcome Pope Francis’s coffin in the basilica is because these people are those who represented the focus of his mission,” said Father Giulio Albanese, head of missionary cooperation and communications for the Vicariate of Rome. “They are those who live on the peripheries, geographical and existential peripheries.”

Can planets that orbit cool red dwarf stars—the most common type of star in the Milky Way—sustain atmospheres? #NASAWebb’s observations of TRAPPIST-1 b, one of six rocky planets in the TRAPPIST-1 system, are helping to answer this question: bit.ly/3Qb1NSk 🔭 🧪
Illustration of a rocky planet and its red dwarf star on an empty black background. The planet is large, in the foreground on the lower right and the star is smaller, in the background at the upper left. The planet is various shades of gray, with some small craters. There is no apparent atmosphere. The left quarter of the planet (the side facing the star) is lit, while the rest is in shadow. The star has a bright orange-red glow, and appears to have a very active surface with multiple flares. The words “Artist’s Concept” appear in gray at the bottom left.
