What would be a really interesting Astronomy topic for my project?

I have to present a 15 minute powerpoint presentation on a topic of my choice for my Astronomy class.

What would be something really interesting and cool to talk about? It has to be related to astronomy.

Also it has to be on a topic that is currently being researched, not one that is historical.

I was thinking either Black Holes or maybe Pluto if I am allowed to.. It would be a plus if there was a lot of information out there on the topic that I could research for the project.

Thanks for your help!

Research Nibiru and the Annunaki!!!!

Give out some information from both sides then hold a Debait and let people voice their opinions!!


Will be sure to raise some eyebrows!!!

Mercury would be ideal!

A spacecraft recently went into orbit around it (only a few weeks back). The first images are coming in daily. Noone has ever seen these images before.

You could easily fill in 15 minutes with a quick review of the history of the Exploration of Mercury:

followed by a talk about the MESSENGER mission and what it is discovering about Mercury;

Cheers!
