In the last decade, scientists around the world pulled off impressive feats: They imaged a supermassive black hole for the first time, discovered new human ancestors, created groundbreaking new medical treatments, and launched probes to distant asteroids, comets, and moons.
Researchers also invented reusable rockets, sent two landers to Mars, and identified possibly habitable planets outside our solar system.
