The turbine, towering at 150 metres to the tip of its highest blade, is equipped with a 2-megawatt generator. It has commenced supplying electricity to the Swedish grid, capable of powering approximately 400 homes.

An asterism is a pattern of stars in the night sky, forming shapes that make picking out constellations easy.

Dr. Nick Longrich, from the Milner Centre for Evolution at…
