I’ll start:

• The New Horizons probe, the probe that did a flyby of Pluto and is currently exiting the solar system, is carrying a small sample of the ashes of astronomer Clyde Tombaugh. Tombaugh is the one who discovered Pluto in 1930.

• There is a 12 billion-year-old cloud of water vapor that holds 140 trillion times the mass of water in Earth’s oceans.

Greek/Common Nerdspeak/Fake Latin: Ancient but rather good looking(refer to the trident letter Psi, and Omega)
Latin/Anglo-Saxon: Generic, but has some tricks up its sleeve(Refer to Hungarian's Idea of SZ = hissing s, S = hushing sh)
Cyrillic/Russian: Eyesight problems(refer to the mouth looking Д, the backwards N and R, and Y for U)

Armenian/Maddoxlandic: A bunch of m's, n's, h's, and r's mutated in unusual ways
Georgian/Not-the-hick-one-in-the-USSR-I-mean-the-USA: The prettiest out of the bunch, but that's just for their 3rd script
