Editorial standards

How Temposia is written, sourced, fact-checked, and kept independent.

Who writes Temposia

Temposia is written and edited by a small independent editorial team of science-and-space writers. Every article and guide is produced specifically for this site — none of it is scraped, spun, or auto-published without review. A human reads and edits each page before it ships.

How we research and source

Facts come from primary and authoritative sources first: NASA planetary fact sheets, JPL mission data, ESA, and IAU definitions and orbital elements, supplemented by peer-reviewed research and reputable science journalism. Numbers — radii, masses, distances, orbital and rotation periods — are taken from those references, and every article lists the specific sources it draws on so you can check our work.

Fact-checking and corrections

Each piece goes through a dedicated fact-check pass against authoritative sources before publication. Where a figure is genuinely uncertain or debated — common for small, distant worlds — we say so rather than inventing false precision. Space science moves; we revise pages as new observations and missions come in. If you find an error, tell us and we will fix it.

Independence and how we make money

Temposia is an independent project, not owned by any space agency or publisher. We may run advertising to support the work, but ads never influence what we cover or what we say. Editorial decisions are made solely on accuracy and usefulness to readers.
