While the article on "extreme worlds" was interesting I found the cover very misleading.

"Discover the most bizarre places in the cosmos" is fine apart from its all based on speculation and not proven fact. I get that things need to be hypothesized so scientists can try to work out what to look for to prove them. Perhaps a bigger emphasis on the techniques they plan to use to get closer to the truth seeing as we can't actually go there along with a less misleading set of headlines next time.
